Sipping on a can of fresh & hoppy Mundaka session IPA by CR/AK(@crakbrewery) in the blistering hot city of Köln, just a week ago. A nice change from the omnipresent Kölsch beer. Can purchased at the fine beer shop of Pulle&Stulle(@pulleundstulle ). A must visit when strolling trough the city looking for a good sip of craft beer. #beer #beerme #Belgianbeergeek #Beerstagram #craftbeer #drinkingcraft #beergeek #beerlover #Köln

At the moment the @bxlbeerfest team is in full preparation for the big weekend... 2 weeks and it's on! 60 breweries with each at least 4 different beers makes a lot of choice. We'll be uploading a menu on Untappd soon but here's already a peak at the @gueuzetilquin lineup. Just like last year we'll have the honor to present you the Tilquin Fruit experiments #2. Plenty of fruit... That's good for you, you know that😉 Want to taste them?

Bring it on! A band and person I've been following from when I was young, much younger as today.... Non beer related I know but Glenn Danzig has been and still is a big part of my life. 🤘🤘 Glad to see him live again today. #Danzig #GlennDanzig #Rock #Metal

During my short stay in Bamberg I expected Rauchbier, Ungespundetes, many traditional lagers, big stone jars of fresh helles bier and more of the same. All these expectations were met and I was happy. Very happy. Then a friend whispered in my ear that if I was staying in Bamberg I really had to make a trip to Thuisbrunn to visit Elch-Bräu. So I did... And I was amazed. Owner, brewer and do-it-all Georg Kugler showed me around and gave me a taste of his fantastic beers; Pils, Dunkel, Weizen and Ungespundetes. All traditional but with that mild modern twist that made them stand out in the beer crowd. Then he showed me a corner with 6 barrels, took a big sample and amazed me. I didn't expect to find a wood fermented and aged sour beer here... It was rich, mellow, very fruity, sour but not acetic and wonderfully complex. His oldest barrel was 4 years and still remarkably fresh. The barrel content freezes solid during the winter and when it starts to thaw once the temperature goes up the fermentation starts again. Brett survives everything! A unique little place... Oh, and he makes his own whisky as well, from mash to bottle!, 😯😯 #Beer #beerme #Belgianbeergeek #beergeek #beerlover #elchbräu #Germany #Bavaria #Bayern #whisky #Beerstagram #beersofinstagram #craftbeer #drinkingraft

The beautiful coolship on the attic of Gänstaller Bräu(@ganstallerbrau) , in Schnaid near Bamberg, Oberfranken region, Germany. Gänstaller brews in a building that used to belong to Brauerei Friedel and the whole building and set-up is witness to centuries old brewing techniques. Today Gänstaller still uses the coolship but in another way, not purely for cooling but not for inseminating the wort with local micro flora either. Once the wort has finished boiling it gets pumped on the coolship where it stays for about 25 minutes while Andy Gänstaller adds fresh hops to the coolship. The wort hits the coolship at the perfect temperature to extract the aromatics of the hop, a late kettle hop on the coolship. All residu sinks to the bottom of the coolship and the freshly hopped wort then flows trough a heat exchanger to cool down and go into the fermentation tanks. A unique brewer and brewery with super beers, rooted in tradition but inspired by the new age of brewing.

First day of Bamberg and digging into the region's specialty; Rauchbier. This is Brauerei Spezial's hausbier, a delicately smoked beer made with their own beechwood smoked malt. Malty with a good body and notes of smoke, bacon, some clove and nuts. I paired it with some local salmon trout. It's not a beer for everyone as the smoke flavor is a strong divider but it remains balanced. Their Ungespundetes beer is also very tasty; mild hoppy, malty, fresh, very drinkable and...not smoked 😉 More Bamberg beer fun will follow! #beer #beerme #Belgianbeergeek #Bamberg #beergeek #beerlover #Beerstagram #Rauchbier #spezialbrau #craftbeer #drinkingraft

Sharing the word, sharing the message, meeting friends...in holiday mode but we're in a good spot, a very good spot even; Tribaun(@tribaun) in Innsbruck. This bar is all about passion for good beer, honest beers, local breweries & friends. You don't come looking for a beer here, you experience beer. A must visit when in the region. #SanteïBXL #SanteïInnsbruck #BXLBF18 #Tribaun #Innsbruck #beer #beerme #Belgianbeergeek #Beerstagram #craft #craftbeer #drinkingraft #beerlover

Oh,what a perfect timing to be reading this book... 'Barrel-aged stout and selling out' by Josh Noel handles about the rise and 'fall' of Goose Island. From the start of their history with the Chicago city brewpub, to the first major expansion and to the minority stake sold to ABInbev to the full take over by the Brazilians in 2011. It's not all puppies and rainbows and statements like' nothing will change' or even 'We'll keep full control' are just idle attempts to grasp what once was... Who's going to write a book on Beavertown in a couple of years? I highly recommend this book. It gives a good insight in the history of Goose Island, the why and how, but also into the strategies of big beer buying up market share and credibility. #Beer #Beerme #craftbeer #GooseIsland #Belgianbeergeek #NoCraft #Beavertown
