The Golden Lambikstoemper goes to …

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 Parlement (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 under  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.

Golden Lambikstoemper Award 2015 won by …

Gouden Lambikstoemper 2015

… Streekproducten Centrum Halle!

Based on an impressive list of cafés and various criteria (that were drawn up after many hours of negotiations) and after anonymous visits to the proposed businesses we, the Lambikstoempers, reached out our 6th Golden Lambikstoemper Award on the 22th of november 2015, to a business that best promoted our beloved lambic beers in 2015.

The winner this year is Streekproducten Centrum (Poststraat 3A in 1500 Halle), because of their longstanding commitment to local beers and the Lambic beers in particular. Invariably they have all Old Gueuze and Old Kriek of the 12 remaining lambic breweries and “stekerijen” in their shop. Definitely worth a visit!

1 winner!

Normally we use a top three in our Golden Lambikstoemper election, but this year we only have one winner. After 20 years of efforts by the Streekproducten Centrum Halle we think it’s (more than) time to put them – and only them – in the spotlight. So we’ve thrown our principles and regulations for one time aside for this one and only winner of the Golden Lambikstoemper 2015 Award.

Who will be next years winner? You can choose!
