Very different from previous years! Much more lambic and ‘Gueuze’ charachteristics and funky. Less fruitpunch and more complexity. Even though I’ve had better iterations, it’s still fantasticly balanced and tons of depth. Also a good Carnaval starter 😜

After surviving an absolutely crushing two weeks, I think a nice lambic is well-deserved. And as expected, this one does not disappoint. The Framboise underneath is still dominating, with subtle hints of blueberries and vanilla woven in between. Heaven.

Incredibly soft and easygoing while remaining it’s complexity and funkiness. Rich deep berry and grape notes and oak. Some strange dusty, pickle (?) like aroma. Another banger from Cantillon.

Geuze Boon Black Label Edition N 8
Stinky paardendeken! Maar op een goeie manier hoor. Funky maar iets té zacht?

Beautiful and experimental! Almost as if im drinking some sort of natural Riesling wine of some sorts!

First beer in Brussels! Really soft and easy going while remaining it’s complexity. Fantastic!

One of my absolute favorite Lambics from Cantillon. Really complex and refined, yet as drinkable as ever! This one’s a little sharp, would be interesting to see what this could do in a few years time.

Incredibly dank. Murky. Still drinkable though. Good, but expected more.

Not a helles IMO. Malty and biscuits, not all that refreshing or light. Bready. Drinkable but disappointed.

Been a while since I’ve had a Mikkeller. Pretty average semi-hazy Ipa. Drinkable and crushable.

Soft, apple-cidery tartness. Fruity and dry. Pretty nice and drinkable, lacks some depth.

Completely different from how I remember it! So complex and unique from other lambics from Cantillon. Herbal and floral, some bitterness, fruity and funky. Beautiful.

Every once and then, you stumble upon a weird little bar that suddenly has a Lou Pepe for a very reasonable price. This is one of those times. Absolutely stellar Kriek, the very best I’ve ever had from Cantillion. Cinnamon, cherries and barnyard vibes.

Pff, I know it’s an old bee, but what the hell happened here?? Barely any peach, malty sour ass beer. Meh.

Incredibly sweet. Some funk but overwhelmingly sweet, almost soda like. Not my type of lambic!

KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge (2020)
Some time in the ‘cellar’ (more like the cabinet in the back of my garage) has actually mellowed this beer out somewhat. Much more balanced now.

Wow! Super balanced and extremely drinkable lambic-like sour! Mosaic and funkiness are a deadly combination apparently, great stuff!

Oude Geuze Boon Black Label Edition N°5
Really nice, but not as nice as the mono-blends!

Wonderful wonderful wonderful Kriek! Every year of this beer is a treat but this year especially is a step above the rest. Sour, fruity, cinnamon and oak, what a feast!

The Fresher, the better. There’s literally nothing I would change about this beer. And for that reason alone, it deserves (in my humble opinion) a perfect score. And nothing less. Probably my favorite Lambic of all time, maybe my favorite beer of all time

Oude Schaarbeekse Kriek (2019)
Pretty Good! Somewhat vinegary tartness. Nothing exceptional. Interesting to see what this beer will do with age. Shows a lot of potential.

Personally prefer the normal KBS! This one is leaning a little too much towards a pure chocolate stout for my preference. Still doesn’t hurt the beer in anyway, because it’s a perfectly balanced masterpiece of a stout in every other regard.

Trippelbock Frederiksdal Cherries
Thanks Countbeer! Sorry, but I have to be honest, this is not my kind of beer. Very funky, but in a pretty strange, distorted kind of way. Cherries are very upfront, which is nice! I think it doesn’t compliment the Trippelbock as good as I had hoped.

Beer Geek Fudgesicle BA Rye Whiskey
Fantastic BA Imperial Stout! One of the best I’ve had from Mikkeller! Very balanced, Fudgy, thick Imperial Stout with notes of coffee, Cocoa, Rye and pastries. Not too sweet. Would recommend!

One of the best lambics I’ve had in a long, long time. Definitely the most floral Lambic I’ve ever had.
