Cuvée Saint-Gilloise (Champions) (2017)

Lambic - Traditional

A new brew concocted by Jean Van Roy to celebrate the 2003-2004 Division III title for the local Union St. Gilles football team and its upgrade to Division II. Cuvee des Champions is not a traditional ’gueuze,’ in that it is made from only two year-old 2001 lambic, not from a blend of older and younger lambics. It is also dry-hopped in the cask for three weeks with fresh Styrian Goldings hops. Re-fermentation in the bottle is achieved with the addition of a small amount of candi sugar.

Classic funky Cantillion. Leather, horse blanket, fruity apricot and lemon. Some spices in the background—pepper and nutmeg. Brilliant, Matt, thanks for sharing your souvenir on brewing day!

Mindre syra än förra året, uppskattas. Rund med aprikos och många bubblor. Solid mörkgul färg. Bra med brett.

So soft. Hops have rounded out completely. Lots of wood.

I bought this at the actual brewery on 6/17/17 and held it until now. Absolutely incredible flavor, lots of green apple and honey. Medium high tart, good amount of funk. So worth the wait. Happy holidays to us!
