Aged for two years on red wine barrels from Tuscany, only 6000 liters produced. Brewed and blended for the Jubileum of the Oostendse Bierjutters, and the 10th anniversary of their special beer.
Brewed in the original boilers of the disappeared Aigle Belgica brewery. These boilers are moved to and are still used by the 8th generation of the family brewery Strubbe Ichtegem out...
In 1830, one Carolus Strubbe left the trading town of Tielt to try his luck in Ichtegem, a town well known for its flax industry. He became a farmer and brewer there: in summer, he tilled the land, and in winter he worked on the malt floor with his stirring barrel. At the time, most brewers grew their own raw materials, not only barley and grains, but some of them even grew their own hops. They made their barrels and tanks thereselves or at least restored them themselves; most of the time with oak from their very own trees. Due to this traditional method, there was a great variety of beer barrels in size and off course in content.
