New Customer of Last Month

Ginger Beer

22b is this cute coffee shop near Antwerp’s St Vincentius hospital and which we can see from our kitchen balcony. Piet and Ingrid built the business – literally – from scratch and have delicious looking food, interesting drinks and a cool place to chill with a book. The chef is Jewish, but the food is not kosher. They will soon be opening a bed and breakfast next door.

They actually ordered first in July, just before they closed for the summer vacation. The reopened 2 weeks ago and are re-ordering now.

Obviously, if 22b sells Ginger Tipple it is an excellent establishment.

New Customer of the Week

An acquaintance of mine,  wanted to help Ginger Tipple be successful in Holland. The first meeting she arranged was with an online gluten-free business in Leiden called gutenvrijemarkt.com. Here is what happened.

I walked in, we sat down, they poured some Ginger Tipple into some plastic cups, and decided to buy, all within 2 minutes and 40 seconds – I timed it.

Definitely worth travelling 2 hours each way.

 

 

 

Backhanded Compliment

After a lot of effort and persistence on Shifra’s part, we finally had a meeting at a large drinks shop in nearby Wilrijk called Albo. This shop stock about 200 beers and countless gins, wines and other alcoholic beverages.

The Albo shop is run by a husband and wife team and I duly presented a cold Ginger Tipple for tasting. She does not like ginger and he did not like the tipple.

But they still ordered.

Availablity

It will be on Albo’s shelves from mid-September.
