Lambic D’Haute Densité

Lambic - Traditional

The result is surprising. The beer is amber, without carbonation, and comes in at 9.1% ABV and 8° Plato residual sugar. It's close to a Barley Wine or an oxidized wine like Madeira, Sherry or Vin Jaune. Even more surprising is that when we forgot a half-empty bottle, th beer was still good when we tasted it....after 8 days. This beer will be poured for the first time next weekend in Portland (Maine) for The Festival organised by Shelton Brothers and 12% imports.

Maderia like qualities this one, maybe not my brothers favourite but a nice lunchtime sipper

Lambic vieilli 6 ans en tonneau - Assez liquoreux en bouche, attaque proche d’un barley wine, vin cuit, confir, très porté sur la noix, sèche, en fin de gorgée. Surprenant mais agréable

Super heavily flavored beer. Figs for days, some plum and raisons, and a bit of anise. Very cool but a sipper for sure

Barrel aged for 6 years and bottled in 2019. Heavy and complex, lots of wood in with the spice, sweet and tart.

Sherry-like qualities. Boozy, sweet, sour end. Not my favourite...

The sherry description of the brewery isn't too far off. Love the fruitiness and wine like tones. Aftertones remind me of the whiskywharehouse smell

Sour cherry, chocolate, red wine grapes, funk, thick, fortified wine esque. Big wine stained oak.

Lots of "good" oxidation flavors (plum, cherry). Reminds me of an old Ale.

Plum and cherry notes, a touch of red wine, alcohol, moderate sourness.

Acidic funky prune and fig. Whisper of sour golden raisin and booze. Old oak backdrop. Definite port wine vibes. Dig it!

Wow - very interesting. Very complex flavors ranging from Mild tartness to Brett character to mild roast to some melanoidin like notes. Medium+ body.

Nauwelijks koolzuur, zuurtje, zoet, rood fruit, wat notig, sherry en madera achtige tonen. Bijzonder.

Quite interesting. Vinous, like a fortified wine. Has the sourness you would expect from Cantillon. Reminds me very much of a tawny port with age.
