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.

This one really suffered from being on draft. Had a lovely nose though.

Initially very sharp and sour, then lots of nice hoppy dryness. I also think it tastes like black tea with lemon in it. This is going to be a nice Sunday afternoon sipper!

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

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。

かなりジューシーな。柑橘。オレンジから酸っぱいミカン系。甘やかで美味し。昔よりもかなりドリンカビリティ上がった気がする。香りはちょっと植物的なホップに口に含むとシガーも。この辺りは昔の感じよね。そういう意味では少しホップが浮いてる気もしないでもないけど、むしろ美味くなったかな。

Hazy golden beer, one finger white head. Sour, dry with some oaky notes. It is nice!

Not as good as I remembered it? Almost still, not a ton of funk, missing a lot of what makes Cantillon great. Maybe it’s just the draft version? 12oz, 7.75*

LCI - Brussels beer no 6: Shared this with Adam P. Tasted similar to a saison. Nice refreshing and floral taste. Worth it for the basket pouring experience
