The Cassis Tilquin à l’ancienne (6.3% alc/vol) is a spontaneous fermentation beer obtained from the fermentation of frozen blackcurrants in young lambics, blended with 1, 2 and 3 years lambic to reach a final concentration of fruits of 200 gr fruit per liter. This is a different version from the Experimental Draft Versions #1 and #2, as no Meerts lambic was used to lower the ABV of the blend. Served for the first time as a premiere at BxlBeerFest 2019 and sold at the blendery from 6th-7th of September.

(Bottle) Hazy reddish amber colour with brief, foamy head. Fruity nose with black-currant, red fruit, strawberries, funk and barnyard. Fruity, tart taste with notes of black-currant, red fruit, plums, citrus, barnyard, oak wood, a touch of vinegar and funky yeast. Low bitterness. Medium body, quite dry. Rich and tatsy, with a fresh acidity. Very nice.

Clear red colour with no head and just a fine, light carbonation. Nicely tart and fruity. The cassis element is not super strong. The level of funkiness is a lower than typical Tilquin. Good but less impactful that some of their other fruit variations.
