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.

Bottle. A- Musty, oak. A- Copper orange color, cloudy liquid, off white head. T- Oak, lemon, slightly metallic. P- Medium body, average texture, medium carbonation, balanced finish. O- About 7 years old. I did notice more oak and citrus in this compared to the slightly older lambics I had. This was decent but one of those beers that if I had had as my first example of the style, I probably wouldn't have been to excited to venture on.

Pours a slightly hazy amber from a bottle, nicely carbonated with a full head. I have to admit, I have hyposmia recently so senses are acting differently than they used to. Aroma (for me) is a faint grapefruit/nail polish remover. Flavor is mostly bitter pith, almost medicinal quinine. Very thin. Despite this it is light and not totally unpleasant, just feel like I'm missing out on something. This was a 2017-2018 season.

2017-2018 edition from the Belgian Beer Discovery Box for cancelled Christmas 2020. Lightly hazy golden-orange colour with transparent particles floating all-around, as carbonation is quite intense. The head seemed frothy, bubbly at first, but ended up creamy and very long lasting. Some real nice patchy creamy-foamy lacing is left on the glass. Fresh apple aromas with some gooseberry notes, hints of Belgian sugars and Brett earthiness. Slick mouthfeel with some creaminess from the head. Decent sourness in the taste with the milder apples and berries. Short finish, slightly dry. A Oude Geuze that is fairly easy to drink and all well-blended. Not bug punches in your mouth.

Really light on flavor. Good, but it’s got a lot less “going on” than any other gueuze I’ve had.

Pozytywne zaskoczenie, w cholere udana butelka czy rocznik, bardzo owocowa, agrest, limonka, skojarzenia jak podstawki 3f teoche. Grzeczna dosc dzikosc. Bardzo rzeski. Niby to jest ten z mlodszych lambikow blend, targetowany na rynek masowy, a jest sups
