eurotrash brewery @ het Domein Sittard

The Eurotrash Brewery project presented in full effect by an

Oktoberfest beertent installation at the museum for contemporary art "het Domein" in Sittard Holland last autumn,during the local beerfest! 2 special brews were made, a beer named "Red Oktoberfestbeer", brewed with mostley munchener malt and a big dose of bambergerrachmalz, fermented with a spicy belgian yeast at a modest drinkable alcohol percentage.The whole brew (500 liters) was available on draft. Especially for the ladies however a mega strong (16% alcohol!) barley wine fermented with champagne yeast, served in elegant champagne flute, called "Eurotrash Lady".And the ladies loved it.

Both beers were masterly brewed by Menno Olivier from Hollands best brewery "de Molen" from Bodegraven.

In the beertent a altar-esque installation build up by a bar wit 2 beerpumps refridgerators filled with 75 centiliter bottles of "Eurotrash Lady" 7 HD lcd screens with eurotrash brewery commercial videos and animations, e.g. the great music video "stars in a circle" by my friends Alex Kloster and Johannes Malfatti from transformer di roboter.

On the fron t of the bar a large tile tableau with photo transfers and handpainted gold luster, produced by ceramist / Dutch designer Norman Trapman. Who was as welresponcible for the production of the presented hand sculpted 2 lietr beermugs with transfered decorations. On the floor of the whole tent an installation by Rufus van den Ban, consiting of 4 kubik meters of trashed plastic beerpints,resembling  an afterparty mess at a slayer concert. One of the beertables I pyroengraved by hand and served as stammtish.

At the opening night entertainment was provided by Martin C de Waal who performed his international hit "the Stud" in his custom made pink leather glam metal catsuit, supported by niss Bunty anddeejay Kid Goesting on bass. Last was aslo responsible for the sounscape that was playing rest of the weekin the tent.

Lots of thanx to all who contributed to this great piece, and special thanx to Martijn,who helped out so much.

 

Cheers!
