Uno dei posti più caratteristici da andare a visitare, ottimo per i lambic invecchiati e per l’atmosfera veramente unica.Straordinario il festival della Grande Sete organizzato da loro

The best gueuze place in Belgium . the pub with the longest name and the shortest opening hours . Only open on Sunday from 10 a.m. till 13. p.m. .

Out of this world place for Lambiek and Geuze lovers. The authentic little café looks and feels very cosy, it is heated by a charming old woodstove and the interior has the perfect 1930’s feeling. The ambiance is great and there are always lots of locals and international beertourists from all over the world enjoying a good Geuze, Lambiek, Kriek, Orval, Westmalle ect.... All the beers are served in the correct glassware and at the right temperature. The selection of the Geuzes, Lambiek and Krieks is simply amazing. All the big Geuze names are on the list but they also have lots of very rare and hard to find stuff in the cellar. Plenty of old to very old vintages, simply stuff to dream of. Lots of gems from breweries like Eylenbosch, Timmermans, Cantillon, Girardin, Old Belle Vue, 3 Fonteinen and lots of others. They also offer the rare " Geuze op ’t Kasteel " wish is a very sought after one. This place is fantastic and the people who runs it are the perfect ambassadors for the nectar we call Geuze, Lambiek and Kriek. Respect for tradition and passion for the local beer is what makes this place so unique. I had a great time and enjoyed some amazing beers.

One of the best place for a "lambic lovers"! Eylenbosch 1984 is a unique experience. Thanks Yves for your great hospitality!

Octobre 2011. Bonne amatrice de Gueuze je devais aller dans ce bar. Direction la Belgique par un dimanche matin. Arrivée dans ce petit village, j’ai trouvé le bar avec son nom imprononçable (pour moi Française!) qui se trouve aux abords de l’église. Il y a vraisemblablement une clientèle d’habitués. Dégustation d’une 3 fonteinen framboise et une avec des ’cerises de Schaerbeek’. On voit que les patrons sont des collectionneurs et grands connaisseurs de gueuzes. J’aimerais posséder la même cave !

This is EXACTLY my kind of place: small, off the beaten path, and somewhat exclusive; geuze drinkers are a special breed here in Belgium. I had a bottle in June 2010 from Eylenbosch that was 25 years old, brought up reverently from the cellar and served in a bottle basket. The bottle was covered in dried mold and cobwebs, and the liquid within had depths of character and earthiness undreamed... This is the quintessence of geuze. This is the Church of Geuze, right here. Hallelujah.

Forget this place if you don’t like lambik!

This extremely friendly family run pub is a must visit. The limited hours and remote location can make this a challenge, but do it anyway. The 1984 Eylenbosch gueze is beyond description, and will not be available forever.

I visited de Grote Dorst for the first time 3 years ago. Two weeks ago I visited it again. What seized my attention was the incredible list of lambic beers (some years ago maybe 20-something and now over 65!). A very good mix of local people and beer geeks. Compared to places in Brussels - which are sometimes indecently expensive - , this café offers very good value for money and is certainly worth taking the bus from Brussels center. The 2 brothers show that they have a lot of passion for geuze. They are truly well informed. Highly recommended!

Just great place, a lovely range of geuze, the waiteress serves with friendly knowledge and explenation only 3hrs open in a week. WOW
