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.

It took nearly 1350 check ins to find Spontaneous Ale or Spon. This place never disappoints in rare, tasty brews.

かなりグレープフルーツ感強し。あまりホップを感じないなあ。むしろ昔ながらのランビックのニュアンス。しっかりと濃く、どっしりとした酸味でカンティヨンらしい酵母感。美味し。

期待してたホップ感極小で青柑橘風味すごい強い。酸もタップだからか弱め?少しの苦味。いつのなのかわからんけど昔のやつの方が好きだな。

Smells of old sweaty socks, taste is very good, funky, fruity, grapes, pink grapefruit and musty apples, nice pearly carbonation, hoppy refined moderately bitter, slightly astringent, balanced finish. Complex and delicious.

Its a bit more hoppy than I like from a lambic. But its not bad. Cantillon delivers quality.

Bottled Jan 21. Fresh aroma of citrus and apple. Spritzy and sour. Red apple, white grape, some sweet orange? Some lovely oak and tannin on the finish, which is dry and refreshing. Had this one awhile, really pleased with it!
