Commercial Description:
Unfiltered.
De houten ton is een Gallische uitvinding, die gebruikt werd voor het gisten als voor het bewaren van wijn als bier. Ten opzichte van de amforen hadden ze veel voordelen : ze waren lichter, konden een grotere inhoud bevatten, waren minder fragiel en waren ook nog handiger, want men kon ze rollen. De tonnen en pijpen die Breughel schilderde kunnen zo afkomstig zijn uit het tonnenmagazijn van elke Pajottenlandse lambikbrouwer (of daar nog staan ...). Houten tonnen werden algemeen gebruikt tot het begin van de vorige eeuw.

Pours a cloudy orangish color with light white head and good amounts of yeast sediment. Aroma is of light citrus, barnyard, must. Taste is the same with a very dry and bitter taste, but a good way.

Pours a yellowish color with a medium head. Smells of sourness, grapes, and horse blanket. Tastes of grapes and medium sourness. Not as acidic and sour as many other Geuzes. Definetely an easy drinking Geuze Lambic.

Robe dorée très claire surmontée d’une mousse blanche épaisse en dentelle qui persiste. Arômes acides de fruits. Saveurs acides d’agrumes, de fruits et de céréales.

Very sour aroma. The flavor is also very sour, but effervescent and spicy. A wonderfully crazy beer, that sustains a great sourness throughout. Excellent.

Fruity, yeasty, floral aroma. Golden color with light persistent head. Tart. The flavor grew on me just like other Geueze I have tasted. Very citrusy like a grapefruit. Well carbonated with a mild mouthfeel. Long, dry, bitter aftertaste.

375ml bottle. Poured a slightly hazy golden color with a bubbly white head that settled down quickly. Strong sour citrus aroma with muscat grapes, green apples, a lot of woodiness, and a definite musty character. Flavors were very intensely sharp and sour, with a slight bitterness. Highly carbonated, soft fizzy mouthfeel with an ultra-dry finish. This stuff is really great, I could drink it all day...
