Oude Geuze Boon is one of the finest examples of the traditional 100% spontaneous fermentation Lambic style. To moderate the sourness, Boon Brewery only brews Lambic in the 7 cold months, from early October until April, according to the traditional "turbid mash" system. This Lambic beer is aged for 1, 2 or 3 years in oak casks. The blend, a mild average 18 months old Lambic (unsweetened, unfiltered, unpasteurised) is refermented in the bottle and can be stored up to 20 years. Brewed in Lembeek, the village that gave Lambic its name. Awards at the World Beer Championships: 2008 Gold, 2010 Silver, 2012 Gold Medal.

Perhaps not the correct listing, will transfer at a later date - possibly 2023-24 batch chalked up at 6.5%. Lambic style very evident, with the outside fermenting doing a fine job here. Almost champagne levels of taste.

Pite w barze smak kwaśny z nutą stęchlizny i aromatem dzikim. Złote biała piana lekko szarawa Nagazowanie średnie nie jest zbyt musujące, lekka treściwość, ostra kwaskowość. Ogólnie piwo jest przedstawicielem stylu, od czasu do czasu można się napić, ale na codzień nie dla mnie.

Golden pour with a very frothy white head. Aroma of wet hay, wet grass, and some very tart citrus. Not the best lambic i’ve had, but still very good. the tartness is a little muddled, and could be a little more upfront. Maybe its an old bottle and its mellowing. Still nice, but i prefer more funk.

Pours a hazy gold with a nice head that disappears quickly. Powerful smell of damp earth and barnyard funk. Intriguing aroma of lemony citrus, dampness, light cellar aroma, yeast, funky cheese. Medium sourness, quite dry. Lovely.

Аромат кислый, есть ноты яблоко зеленого, немного ягод, ну и конечно сена с лимонными нотами и хмелем, немного отдает мочой. Цвет обычный для стиля, пены почти нет. Вкус ядреный местами, особенно из за лимонных кислых ноток. Яблочко очень на отдаление , больше ягоды и лимон. Послевкусие кислое как моча, не шучу. В целом нормальный ламбик, но хотелось бы немного по мягче.

Bottle drunk at home watching Sunny. Slightly orange gold, clean sour nose, very fine carbonation. Crisp and subtly-citrus flavor, lightly funky rubbery-sour notes. Good one.
