Novare draught, 8/26/23. Lightly hazy, golden-bronze. No head. Lactic acid up front, mellowed, with earth and very light cheese rind. More sweetness, apparently, than most oude lambiks. Still, it's assertively culture-forward, with big apple and pear and even light spice from somewhere. Huge oak, wow. Soft, juicy, mega cheese rind, apple, pear, unripe white grape. Biscuit, hard wheat, dry. Lingering heavy sulfur and mineral. Despite my loathing for Boon, this is a solid, traditional lambic with excellent Parmesan rind, apple and biscuit. Soft and wheaty with a hint of light carbonation.

0.25l tap, foeder #42 according to the tap menu. Unclear orange with a small head. Intense grapefruit zest, bergamot, fermented hay, vinegar, funk, basement, wood. Dry sourness with some bitterness. Medium bodied, watery texture, low carbonated, dry sour zesty bitter finish. Nice!

Keg @ Cavern of the Curious Gnome, Chester. 2-year Unblended 6.5%. Could be Foeder 83, unsure. Unclear deep gold appearance, no head. A bit flat unfortunately, could be fresher, colder, spritzier.. lambic sweetness is there but comes across lifeless. What a waste of good lambic.

Foeder #82. 2019. Aromas of sugary lemons, horseblanket, oak, and grainy malts. Flavors follow same with additional caramel and white grape. Thin. Refreshing.

Foeder #87. Cool beer. More of an educational tasting to see how gueuzes come together. Nice and clean though, good beer. BeerTemple Ams
