Gouden Lambikstoemper 2016 't Parlement

… ‘t Parlement at Halle!

Based upon a now impressive list of horeca buinesses and a number of criteria (which were written after many hours of discussions) and after an anonymous visit on site of the proposed businesses we, the Lambikstoempers vzw, awarded the seventh Golden Lambikstoemper on Sunday 11 September 2016. The award goes to a business that, to our opinion, devoted the most attention to the Lambic beers in 2016.

This year the winner is ‘t ParlementÂ (Klinkaert 10-19 at 1500 Halle), because of their nice range of Lambic beers (Oude Geuze, Oude Kriek …), but also Lambic in its pure form. Moreover, all this is served underÂ the Basilica tower with expertise and skill at which many horeca businesses would be jealous.

Top 3

The others of the top 3 of this year are … On second plcae: De Kluis at Buizingen, they also have a nice range of beers of spontaneous fermentation of the Pajottenland and the valley of the Senne.

This year the bronze is for the Centrumhotel at Beersel, where you always can find a good glass of Oude Geuze or Oude Kriek.

Finally our honorable mention this year goes to Eating café D’Akte at Sint-Kwintens-Lennik. Congratulations to all laureates!

20 year Streekproducten Centrum Halle

As always our Golden Lambikstoemper was awarded during our Day(s) of the Oude Geuze, which invariably takes place at the Streekproducten Centrum at Halle. And this year was a special edition, due to the celebration of their 20th anniversary, with a genuine market of regional products on their parking.

For the eleventh time the Lambikstoempers vzw and Streekproducten Centrum at Halle organize â€¦
Dag van de Oude Geuze 2016

“Dag van de Oude Geuze” (Day of the OldÂ Gueuze)

On Saturday 10 and Sunday 11 September 2016 at the Streekproducten Centrum at Halle

Last year more than 650 persons, among which a great number of foreigners, found their way to het Streekproducten Centrum to (re)discover the different tastes of the Lambic beers!

Also this year we provide you with an extensive variety of beers of spontaneous fermentation.
You can taste beers of the following brewers/blenders: Boon (Lembeek), Cantillon (Anderlecht), De Cam (Gooik), De Troch (Wambeek), Drie Fonteinen (Beersel), Girardin (Sint-Ulriks-Kapelle), Hanssens (Dworp), Lindemans (Vlezenbeek), Mort Subite (Kobbegem), Oud Beersel (Beersel), Tilquin (Rebecq) and Timmermans (Itterbeek).

We only serve, to great joy of a lot of beer lovers, the real Lambic beers. These are those with a 100% lambic blend to obtain a Oude Geuze & Oude Kriek and where the yeast cells in the Lambic come from the air of the valley of the Senne. We are thus proud to be able to serve the full assortment of the 12 remaining Lambic breweries and blenders from the region in one location.

Lambik & Servais

Also this year the visitors have the opportunity to taste a real Lambic, the brew that serves as a base for geuze. We provide about 3 Lambics, straight from the wooden casks of the local Lambic brewers.

Next to Lambic we also serve Geuze, Kriek, Faro, raspberry beer â€¦ and one beer that doesn’t really belongs here: our own “Servaisbier”. This beer was first brewed on the occasion of the Servais year and is a top fermented beer. A festival beer with a low alcohol percentage of 6,5 vol%. Coffee and soft drinks will be available too.

All beers will be sold in tasting glasses of 15cl. Thus it will be possible to taste a larger amount of these beers.

The entrance to the “Dag van de Oude Geuze” is FREE.

Lindemans bier

Primeurs & tasters

As with the previous editions you can taste some scoops and special beers at our “Dag van de Oude Geuze”.
In our (now) traditional â€œtasting boardâ€ this year we chose to put brewery Lindemans in the spotlight. This tasting board was especially designed to allow the visitor to order 5 glasses at the same time and take a visit through the fascinating taste scenery.
