Bière de Garde is a blend of three barrels from three contrasting brews produced in January, July and October 2018. The blend produced an easy drinking, dry, malt-forward beer with balancing bitterness and funk. The bottle fermentation included a phase led by lactic acid bacteria, known as ’sickness’, which produces extra weight and fullness to the mouthfeel. Bottled in November 2019, the beer was effectively lagered in bottle at cold ambient temperatures over winter, before completing maturation in the early summer months of 2020.”

Bouteille 75cl de et partagée avec Vincent, merci.
BB 11/2029, bottled 11/2019.
Dorée oscillant vers orange, col épais blanc-cassé.
Arôme au bouquet très plaisant voire sur le rustique belge avec un léger apport citronné et fleuri, le rétro grains confère une petite note de céréales. Le tout penche vers un nez proche de cave rappelant un lambic.
Palais est sec, belle effervescence, rustique, cave et grenier, cobweb, petite pointe de barrique, pointe de funk rappelant un lambic.

Good, bit fluffy off-white head over lively bubbled copperish golden beer. Wild yeasts a mile out, pure lambic/horseblanket/farmyard nose. Lemon, lactic acid, even leather and strongly so! Lemony, lactic acid and a finish with something as oregan and pepper. Leather, horseradish, farmyard, earthy and in the very end a tad bitterish, warming up. Light acidburn, lipsmacking acidity, very well-carbonated. Remarkable! Bière de garde??? my ***, this is honest to God lambic!

Almost like a Boon with the sheer funkability. Super complex. Dry lambic finish. This is a fantastic example of a mixed-culture farmhouse style done properly. Extensive barrel treatment makes the Brett really shine. Amazing beer.
