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!

Melko helppo, mutta samalla hieman yllätyksetön

Clean, almost not a lambic of a beer, seems more champagne just before it becomes acetic

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

Nice acidity, bit tart. Freshness, hint of apple. Tartaric acid.

The carbonation has gone the way of the Dodo on this one. Still bone dry, puckering and some nice apple dessert on maple syrup flavours. Amazing but the carbonation is missed.

Dry and sweet, bitter, some tropical fruits here, oak, not as carbonated as the others
