Eylenbosch (Huizingen)
History
Brouwerij Eylenbosch existed from 1895-1965, producing gueuze and lambic. It was located in Huizingen at Sollenberg 7-15, and was previously the Cammaert brewery from 1864-1895. Cammaert's great-granddaughter Anna Maria married Martinus Josephus Eylenbosch in 1874, and he later took over brewery operations from Joannes-Baptista Wynants-Cammaert in 1895. Eylenbosch passed away in 1922, leaving the brewery to his sons Jan-Baptist and Georges. The brewery transferred ownership again in 1948 to Jan-Baptist's sons when he passed away that year. Production continued until 1965. The buildings were converted to residential lofts in 2006-2008 by Steven Winderickx, son of lambic brewer Edgar Winderickx.
