The traditional sour beer uses the wild yeast found around the farm. This gives the beer a soft, refreshing sour taste. After a year of aging on a barrel this beer is ready for consumption. Each batch of Zure van Tildonk is carefully aged in our cellars at the Engelburcht Monastery for several months prior to release.

Corked bottle. Orange golden color, hazy, no head. Apple and citric sourness. Plums, cellar notes. Moderately citric and apple sour flavor with plums. Short aftertaste. Interesting beer that needs more time and complexity.

schenkt wazig en bleek geel met minimale witte kraag. aroma is zoals te verwachten zuur, maar .... toch op de één of andere manier..... beperkt... ;br-: smaken zijn redelijk zurig, zoet, funky-ish en toch ook weer in de smaak ... is er iets wat mij weerhoud om het een goed bier te vinden.... het is het gewoon net niet... te beperkt qua complexiteit voornamelijk... --- Beer merged from original tick of Zure Van Tildonk (2013) on 23 May 2018 at 16:35 - Score: 6

I heard this interesting brewery suffered a fire last week, so the least I can do, is taste one of their specialty beers... This one uses normal Saccharomyces in combination with wild yeasts "from the farm", so a case of mixed fermentation, or, in the style definitions of this website, a ’sour ale’. Hazy yellow blonde with somewhat greenish hue, almost looking like a witbier, under a thin, off-white, quickly opening head, completely disappearing after a while. Complex aroma with certain lambic characteristics but more conventional fermentation odours as well; impressions of lime, green apple, unripe plums, ’old’ sweat, wine vinegar, hay, old abbey cheese, sour yoghurt, cheese spread, freshly cut sorrel, raw rhubarb, powder sugar, faint vanilla; Michael Jackson’s ’horseblanket’ is represented clearly. Very estery - fruity onset, sour and unripe fruits abounding, green apple, unripe green plums, sour berries, some fresh lime; lactic acidity takes over very soon, paired with a spritzy carbonation and some bready and even faintly honeyish malt sweetness in the background, smooth, leading to a satisfying finish in which sour and sweet are cleverly interwoven with the drying and utterly quenching sourness winning this fascinating game; vanilla-like woody notes also come up, as well as something faintly meaty, some spicy yeast notes and a faint hint of ’old’, mild herbal hoppiness, just there for structure and not disturbing the sweet and sour play, as is custom in sour beers. If the intention was to approach something in the lambic region, mission accomplished. Reminds me a bit of Cuvée De Ranke or even Petrus Aged Pale. Recommendable for those who are into ’sour ales’.

Bottle picked up at Dranken Geers, Oostakker, nr Gent, Belgium, consumed at home Merton Beer Festival mtg, Wednesday 14th January 2015 Golden in colour, great clarity, slim white head. Lovely and tangy, this is tart, fruity and with a really nice zippy freshness to this a good depth of flavour also. Some oak a little light lemon peel, mmhh.... love this its far exceeded my expectations this is bloody lovely its almost like as if its been created as an everday drinking sour/wild beer and I for one could drink one every day quite happily.
