This version of our Pruim was made with the Vroege Tolse variety. We harvested these plums on a beautiful July morning in 2020, in the magnificent fruit orchard of a retired teacher, named Willy. His field is situated on the Wijngaardberg, on the border between Gelrode and Rotselaar.

We macerated the entire plums (with stone) for almost five months in an oak barrel. We used two-year old lambik for maceration and young lambik for blending. The final fruit intensity is 519 grams of plums per litre. 75% of the lambik is brewed with Pajot cereals.

Pours unclear, peachy orange. Some sediment from the fruit remains in the beer . Scent is fruity, but not overly intense. Lambic is hidden. Taste is surprisingly sharp and tart (mostly lactic) , fruityness is much milder than anticipated ( after the intense scent )

Bottle at ODB. Pours a cloudy orange with small white head that lasts. The aroma is plum skin, funk, oak, barnyard. Slick body, tart plum, berry, funk, oak, light dry finish, very nice.
