Looking to take a chance and make a change, they purchased and rehabilitated the brewery. Friends and neighbors told them they were crazy to pursue such a venture (perhaps the reason they called themselves \u003ci\u003eThe Mad Brewers\u003c\/i\u003e) but skill and persistence paid off.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTheir very first commercial offering, Oerbier, was released to high acclaim both locally and internationally and remains to this day the brewery’s flagship ale.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRelying on meticulous attention to quality, a tried and true application of brewer’s savvy and innovation, and an irrepressible talent for witty and whimsical promotion, De Dolle Brouwers built (and maintains) a loyal and vocal following and remains a revered and formidably successful producer of the Belgian Strong Ale style with exports worldwide. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Option1","offer_id":51255054827805,"sku":null,"price":2.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/2797\/6477\/files\/img_009840_82196fbe-b995-4c43-bdd7-f2fd1381b57a.jpg?v=1778092750","url":"https:\/\/purewinestore.com\/products\/de-dolle-boskeun-easter-ale-11-2-oz-spirits8-f11-p475","provider":"purewinestore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
