Cuvée Saint-Gilloise (Champions)

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.

Vin

2/15/19 bottle. Arnold Palmer, herbal hops, sea soaked wood, minerals, Brussels basement, lemonade, oak, and airborne bacteria. People always sleep on CSG, one of my favorites and somewhat easy to attain for a decent price.

The dry hopping adds a dank swampy note. I didn’t love it the first time I had it but it’s grown on me. It’s a unique take on a classic style. Thanks Liz!

Funky musty earthy nose. Superbly balanced, funk and barnyard, light and pleasant acidity. Bliss.

Classic Cantillon flavor + some extra carb!!! Aged in bottle for 4 years. Smells just like the quaint brasserie in Brussels that I spent many of my Saturdays at 🍺

Content de pouvoir partager un lambic d’aussi grande qualité avec la belle-famille… c’est excellent, meilleure que la OG à mon avis.

How lovely! Dry-hopping is marvallously balancing the acidity in this one. Refreshing, quaffable and clean. Still feeling a slight barrel presence. Loving the dry finish. Highly enjoyable offering by Cantillon.
