Oude Geuze Boon à l'Ancienne - VAT 79 Mono Blend

Lambic - Gueuze

A "mono- blend" of which 90 % consists of Lambic from cask No. 79 (brewed on 19-20 October 2011) and 10% young Lambic. The beer has been bottled on December 17, 2014. Cask 79 has a special story. Indeed, it is the oldest cask of the brewery. It has a capacity of 6700 liters and was made by the Persenaire firm in Antwerp in 1883. For a vessel of this size should have been quickly used oak for at least 200 years before, which means that the wood for these vessels is over 300 years old. The attenuation is 93%, so this golden Gueuze is not quite dry. With its 9% ABV it does have a very full-bodied, with aromas of ripe apples, vanilla, notes of oak, peach and nutmeg. All this with a nice acid balance!

Et une petite dernière pour cette année 📆 Assez différente de la précédente, beaucoup moins de carbo, l'élevage a davantage de place ici, sympathiques touches vanillées, boisées. Fruits confits et noix. Très cool !

Die Fruchtigkeit hat sich auf einen schrumpeligen Bratapfelgriebsch zurückgezogen. Klar bei Verstand, Holz durchwurmt und süße Füß

Bottle 37,5 cl. Pours a semi hazy amber with a small but fading white head and an aroma of oak, lime, barnyard, funk. green apples, vinegar, white grapes and sugar. The taste is light to medium sweet with a soft carbonation, medium body, not sour for a gu

Nydelig lambisk lukt, søt og fruktig. Mindre sur enn en vanlig rødt-politiker, litt tam smak. Litt fruktig ettersmak, men ellers lite å melde. Bra bælmepotensiale.

Similar taste profile to recent geuze I've had. The difference here is the overall smooth blending and well nigh undetectable 9.0 abv. Brewed in 2011, bottled 2014. Lovely beer.
