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.

Golden-amber with chill haze. Complex aroma of leather, pears, peaches, feet, dust, old wood and farmhouse cheshire. Bracing acidity and extreme complexity of wood, cheese, acids, grapefruit, kumquat, pommelo and old saddle. Insane complexity. Brilliant balance. Balls front intensity. Fucking amazing.

Popped the cork and it bounced off the ceiling. Aroma is lemon and grass. Color is a cloudy gold with a sizable, fluffy white head that diminishes but leaves nice lacing. Taste is lemon/lime citrus fruit plus moderate acidity and bitterness making this tasty and drinkable. Little to no funk in the aroma or flavor. Expensive but damn good.

This is the shit! From the lush sound of the cork briskly leaving the bottle to the last remainds of geast in the bottom of the glas this beer is pure pleasure. It has the acidity and the taste explosion of a world class gueze. Not a single flavor stands out, since it’s all perfect balanced. A jewel for lovers of gueze.

Pours a hazy orange with an off white head. Aroma has hints of lemons and vinegar. Highly carbonated with a light feel. Taste is slightly bitter and sour with citrus taste.

Bottle. Pours a light light orange with a small white head, lots of carbonation. Aroma of lots of tart, sour funk, sweettart candies, light banana. Aroma of nice sweet tartness. Not a lot of funk in this beer, just sour/sweet tartness. Very nice gueuze, very drinkable.

Bottle. Aroma of barnyard, lemon, cherry, peach, maybe some sour apple. Flavor quite tart and sour (solidly but not abrasively so), slightly but not overwhelmingly funky. Tart grapes in the finish. Enveloping tickling tartness, yet stellar drinkability at once. Great stuff.
