Message MarcDKAlvinne 06:41 Fri 11/28/2014 Thanks, it can take some time before all "new" beers are in the market. The choice for sour ales is well considered. We are historically in the middle of the mixed fermentation geography in Flanders, Belgium. Of course the Morpheus yeast has to do with that choice also, and we all love these beers, also important. All the best, bye.

Message Countbeer beers 6586 º places 259 º 11:53 Fri 11/28/2014 just opened an Alvinne Mano Negra Chili Bourgougne unfortunately a gusher... Edit: but it’s quite tasty!

Message BoBoChamp beers 5752 º places 5 º 12:01 Fri 11/28/2014 Due to many complaints from clients we were obliged to stop distributing the beers. Please let us know when the problem is solved, then we will be very happy to bring in your beers again (still missing that good old Podge IS...)
Message berntholer beers 1619 º places 22 º 01:13 Sat 11/29/2014 Originally posted by MarcDKAlvinne Sorry for all the trouble. We have found the source of the problem in the brewery since 8 weeks. Nothing to do with the Morpheus yeast. I think it’s great that Alvinne is communicating here and that they’ve found the culprit of their problems. I wish them all the best and hope the new releases are all on par. That said I still don’t understand how any commercial operation can go on distributing beers which have obvious flaws for years and years. I would imagine their internal quality control system picking up a problem quickly with swift action following? Unfortunately that QC-system failed here time upon time? That I find strange ...
Message Fux beers 4 º 16:22 Mon 12/1/2014 I’m very skeptical about the tank explanation. Struise used to brew with the Morpheus also (Weltmertz for instance) and... you can’t even call these beers gushers. They should be sold only to people with a weapon carry permit! Actually I still happen to buy some of their beers time to time because some of them are very good, but damn, this yeast...

It is my understanding that those bottles of Weltmerz were brewed at Alvinne.

Struise also had some of the Black Damnation series brewed and bottled at Alvinne (the printed 75cl bottles), of which almost all were gushers as well. So I buy it...
Message Fux beers 4 º 13:20 Sat 12/13/2014 Thanks for the explanations guys, I wasn’t aware at all that some Struise beers were brewed at Alvinne. So let’s just cross fingers then!
