Hanssens takes this a step further, and actually blends batches from different breweries in their area. This used to be a very common practice, but Hanssens is now the oldest remaining blender. They bring to this endeavor a variety of barrels, some up to one hundred years old, and a passion and a love for the tradition of Geuze and Lambics.

Many thanks to Erzengel for sharing! A clear light purple red beer with a white lacing. Aroma of intense sour dark fruits, berries, lactic fruits, vinegar. Taste of intense sour red fruits, cherries, oak, lactic fruits, vinegar. Intense sour finish.
Kapka octu w aromacie. Fajne takie skorki wisni takoz. Lekka slomianoskorzqna dzikosc obecna. Spora kwasnosc ale nie octowa a cytrynowa. Malo co2, zywy specjalnie to on nie jest. Najs butla
Dziwnie sie postarzal, bo dosc niska kwasnosc, kapke pestkowo-dzemowe te wisnie, octu tylko hint i to o dziwo pasuje do tych dzemowych nutek. Wysoka wytrawnosc, dzikosc nieco piwniczna ale tez skorzana ewidentnie. Czuc, ze stary, ale pozytywnie czuc.

Bottle. Pink pour. Aroma of sour cherry, tart, acidic sourness, raspberry, strawberry and wheat. Taste has strongly sour cherry, raspberry, strawberry, wheat, tart and lots of acidic sourness. I like sour, bit this is a bit too much, like fruited vinegar.
Ruikt naar aardbeien, framboos. Smaakt zuur, fruitig, rood fruit. Beetje munt. Net iets te scherp.
