We could wax poetic about the 2003’s leathery, herbal, citric, woody, vanilla, buttery qualities—but the only way to truly appreciate it is to taste it yourself.The one quality we must emphasize is that this is an OUDE LAMBIEK (old Lambic) NOT Geuze. There is some very light sparkle to the beer but it is not intended to have the high champagne-like carbonation that Geuze aims for.

You will see them turning up for special tastings at the best specialty beer bars coast to coast. Quite literally, when this product is gone it can never be made again.

Difficult cork, pours dark yellow, as flat as Flevoland. Smells dry, soft oaky, light funk, no sour. Flat mouthfeel, soft. Taste is loads of oak, good bit of barn-y funk and just the tiniest hint of a memory of sourness. Amazingly complex, rich, so soft.

Not 100% sure this is the 2015 as something ate most of the label, hahaha. Lots if deep funk and wood, grainy, apricots. Fruit wood funk. Nice.

0.75 l bottle from 'Prik & Tik' (Arendonk), 2016 vintage, cellared for almost four years. Almost clear, deep amber with a thin, fluffy, almost stable, white head. Sourish, rather fruity and gently funky aroma of old lemon, tonic water, gooseberry, horse blanket and wood. Minimally sweet, gently sour, quite fruity and slightly funky taste of old lemon, oak, grapefruit, leather and horse blanket, followed by a short, gently tart, quite funky, fairly woody-dry finish. Thin to medium body, gently astringent and minimally effervescent mouthfeel, almost flat. Rather mellow but nicely fruity and funky lambic, highly sessionable as well.
