Their initial experiments in 50 liter batch brews were unremarkable, and the pair realized that enthusiasm was no substitute for craft or expertise, so they enrolled in a three year course of brewing studies and training at the CTL Institute in Ghent.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt proved a wise decision. The quality of their experimental brews improved spectacularly, so much so that they committed to opening their own small brewery.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eToday, with the addition of a third partner, Mark De Neef, De Glazen Toren Brewery exports all-natural, high quality ales to at least nine different countries including the United States, Canada, Italy, Australia, and Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Option1","offer_id":51258036453661,"sku":null,"price":5.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/2797\/6477\/files\/img_015092_50779f4e-e5ea-41ae-8b69-c75c5aa44f97.jpg?v=1778150940","url":"https:\/\/purewinestore.com\/products\/de-glazen-toren-ondineke-oilsjtersen-tripel-25-4-oz-vino-rosso8-f23-p632","provider":"purewinestore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
