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!

Very complex, not so sour. Cheese, ripe banana, silage. Great!

Lukter syrlig eple, citrus, funky høy, søtt brød og litt eddik. Smaker sure epler, grapefrukt, funky høy, mye eik, litt søtt brød og eddik. Mye syrlighet på ettersmaken. Snart 6 år siden flaska, utvikla seg til det bedre siden sist.

Finally starting to drink again those Boon VAT blends, and this one is still fantastic. Elegant, funky, bit of oxidation like iron perfectly added to the sip, with nice minerality, tears, grapefruit. Just a small "hole" in the middle, but remains a good 1

Ideal entrada a las lambicas. Dulce, suave y con un muy leve toque acido. Primer peldaño perfecto para iniciarte en este estilo.

>6 years old. Smell of cheese, vanilla coke, apples. Soft, round. Acidity quite low. Sweet vanilla notes more prominent on palate. Dry funk on the finish. This has developed into a complex drinkable geuze. Drink it now.

Bevuta dopo 7 anni dall'imbottigliamento, ottima. Acidità ammorbidita dal tempo, corpo ben presente, cristallino... L'amaro dei legni si sente sul finale e taglia la bevuta.

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.
