Description
Country: Belgium
Brewery: Brouwerij Oud Beersel
Style: Lambic
Format: 375ml Bottle
ABV: 6.5%
This creation is a tribute to the founder of Oud Beersel who started the brewery 135 years ago in the year 1882.
Vandervelden 135 Oude Geuze is a blend of 1 year old lambic aged on foeders that were previously used for mainly red Brunello di Montalcino wine and of 3 year old lambic on an old Oud Beersel foeder.
The beer is a golden yellow, deep bursts of vinous character on the nose (typical fragrance of wild ferments). To taste, it combines the pleasant bitterness of grapefruit with a fine red wine taste from the wooden foeders resulting in a sour, yet well-rounded character.
