Oude is a very special blend of wild ales aged for 1 up to 4 years. Over 1/3 of the total blend is aged in oak puncheons (500l) for 4 years. We’ve never used such an old beer in our blends so far. This gives the final beer a characterful and complex taste. Another 50% is a younger beer of 1 years old which adds freshness, herbal and floral qualities to the blend. The remaining part of the blend is a 2 year old beer that acts as a bridge between the old and young.

0,75l at home. Bottled 19.12.2020. Yellow almost clear color, small white head. Smells earthy, grassy, bit vinous, stone fruits, hay. Nice to very nice smell, rather subtle. Full body, soft carbonation. Tastes grassy, earthy, funky, cheesy, some wood, bit lactic, oak, bit vinous, tannins. Finishes dry and light to medium sour with notes of tannins, stone fruits and some hay. Hmm, good, but not the best Tommie, very subtle and mellow, leaning a bit toward lactic notes, lacks some complexity, this might either be good at 5% abv or with a tad more complexity. Still good stuff though.

Good, slightly yellowish tinted white head over copperish golden beer. Dried apricot on lambic, apricot liqueur, faint fresh green herbs. Again dried apricot, faint caramelized fruit, some uindentifyable light-herbal liqueur, bread with inclusions, very slightly tartness. Slighly oily, feels spritzy despite rather dead looks, alcoholwarmth (for a 6.7% beer!). Yet another excellent TSj!

Hapu, funky, puuviljane, suht mild, nisu, veits happeline ka. Hea, aga mitte midagi väga erilist.
