Cuvée Saint-Gilloise (Champions) (2016)

Lambic - Traditional

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.

Time has done this wonders. Lime fruit pastille still, but the acidity has faded to a pleasant tartness. Huge floral and herbal notes. White pepper, mint and chamomile alongside pink grapefruit

Странно, тут опять лимон и цедра и намного более кислое чем годом старше, два разных пива. Слишком карбо еще

LC; thanks for sharing this, Drew — thought I’ve had relatively few Cantillon bottles over the years, Saint-Gilloise has always been a favorite, and this was awesome; fruit without fruit, super mellow acid, minerals, lingering bitterness; awesome.

Surprised me how delicious this was. I thought it would be good but this was more than that. Fruity, some nice bitterness, mild acidity. Love!

No Zwanze@ML. Age has made the bonedry lemonmust overpower most of the (dry)hop, reclaiming it firmly back into the well-known Cantillon house character of musty lemons pushed to the upper limit of puckering dryness. Prefer it w fresh hops blended in.

Drinking really nice. Love the tiny bit of dry hopped character to the Gueuze.
