	The revived Eylenbosch in Kobbegem will not be using the iconic brewery building in Schepdaal, since it was recently remodeled into commercial housing, but there are plans to use a remaining 300 square meters of space for up to ten 45 hl foeders. Well water from the original Eylenbosch source has also been secured for future brewing operations, further serving to reconnect the new Eylenbosch with its historical roots. In addition to storage at the former Eylenbosch site, barrels are also stored at De Troch, and on a farm in Zellik called “Hof van Piemont”. This 18th century farm is an organic fruit farm for over 75 years, and the farmer (who is a nephew of the De Keersmaeker family) mostly harvests apples and pears.

	To help finance the revival of the iconic Eylenbosch brand, a crowdfunding project was launched from October 24, 2019 until May 31, 2020. Eylenbosch produced a non-lambic beer called ‘Patience for Eylenbosch’ prior to 2021. Participants of the crowdfunding received Eylenbosch beers and merchandising in return for their investment. The first lambic beers which were launched in January 2021 are Kriek and Geuze. Future brewing plans include other fruit lambics such as: Cassis, Peche, and Framboos. The Eylenbosch beers are sold exclusively in Delhaize supermarkets in Belgium.

The first lambic beers which were launched in January 2021 are Kriek and Geuze (cntaining partially lambic from De Troch, until they had enough old lambic from their own production). Future brewing plans include other fruit lambics such as: Cassis, Peche, and Framboos, and since then they already released special barrel editions such as whisky and rum. The Eylenbosch beers are sold exclusively in Delhaize supermarkets in Belgium.

			In early 2023, Eylenbosch officially became a full member of HORAL, and launched their first 100% Eylenbosch brewed Oude Gueuze.By then, they had more than 1000 hectoliters of lambic maturing in a mixture of oak barrels and large foeders; moreover, they planned to re-use part of the old original Eylenbosch site (in Schepdaal) for storage, maturation, and eventually visits/tastings.
