Season 2020-2021 Assemblage #1. bottled on 08/12/2020. This Oude Geuze has been blended with lambikken from eight different barrels and originating from eight different brews. More than 60% of the blend consists of 3 Fonteinen lambic, of which almost 10% was brewed with our own Brabant-grown cereals of the Finistère variety. More than 40% of the blend consists of old lambikken, of which the oldest portion was brewed in the first days of 2018."

"Gedurende een verlengde rijping van bijna vier jaar doorliep de Lambiek van Foeder 21 een maderisatie proces.Deze Lambiek werd gemengd met Lambieken van twee andere foeders van dezelfde oorsprong welke allen gebruikt werden voor witte wijn in het verleden. Dit creëert een unieke smaakervaring"

Gueuze made with a blend of easy-drinking lambics

"In the past Port wine was shipped to the harbours of Bruges and Antwerp on wooden barrels of 650 liters, called ‘pipes’ or ‘pijpen’ in Dutch. Some of these barrels were purchased by Lambic breweries and have contained Lambic for many generations. Some barrels have been circulating in other, some defunct, Lambic breweries before finding their final place in the barrel cellars of Oud Beersel. We have blended the finest Lambics of on average 20 months old matured on these ‘old pipes’ of between 60 and 120 years old, to create an Oude Geuze with the characteristics of these old barrels."

"A blend of Den Herberg, Lindemans and De Troch lambics. Aroma of wet farmland, medium lactic acidity, full mouthfeel, coats the tongue. Citric and grain flavours are well balanced. Very refreshing and drinkable."
