Geistinger Vinkenbier is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year. To celebrate this happy event, inspirer Jan Vinken has published a book entitled "10 years of Geistinger Vinkenbier". Besides listing the articles that have appeared in the press, this book also highlights the forgotten glory of the Vinkenbier. The history of the Vinken family and Vinken brewery are also widely covered, as an ode to Jans father and the ancestors of the Vinken family.
