Corsendonk Agnus, Corsendonk Pater, Corsendonk Blonde, Corsendonk Brune The first Corsendonk brewery was built at Corsendonk Priory, in what is now Oud Turnhout, soon after the priory opened at the end of the 14th century. With the closure of the priory in 1784 by Joseph II of Austria, all brewing ceased.Two hundred years later at the start of the 20th century, a Turnhout brewer, Antonius Keersmaekers, went back to the old beer recipe and started selling his Patersbier, a beer very similar to today's Corsendonk Pater.Brewing stopped again in 1953 when the business became a beer retailer only. However, it restarted in 1982 when Joseph Keersmaekers launched two very different beers, now known as Corsendonk Agnus Tripel and Corsendonk Pater Dubbel respectively. Pater is a mellow, dark beerwhich is matured for about 20 days at a temperature of 22ºC. These two beers have now been joined by two others known simply as Corsendonk Blond (golden) and Corsendonk Bruin (brown) and which are about 1º abv lighter. There is also a Corsendonk Christmas Ale which is treat for those who love roasted malts.
