Vicaris Tripel/Gueuze is the perfect thirst-quencher for hot summer days. For this beer, brewery Dilewyns works together with a renowned gueuze brewer from the Zenne valley.
The complex interaction between Vicaris Triple and gueuze makes this beer unique. The sharp sourness of the spontaneously fermented lambiek beautifully counters the fruity and soft Vicaris Triple. The result is a rich beer with a fresh mild acidity and a soft finish.
Vicaris Triple/Gueuze is only available from May to September (subject to availability).

Bottled. A hazy golden beer with a yellowish head. The aroma has notes of yeast, malt, and straw. The flavor is sweet with notes of yeast, malt, straw, and lemons, leading to a dry finish.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a hazy yellow with a white head leaving a discreet lacework. Funky, farty, Bretty barnyard aroma. Medium body, heavy carbonation, some dry fruitiness but then very delicious subtle funk and Brett. Ends slightly tart. Very delicious - the lambic really overpowers the Tripel here. 150812

4oz pour is a totally clear.gold with some creamy white head. Nose is nice, not super guezey, honey, flowers, a little bit of hop pellet, yeast, light chamomile, rose water, white grape, maybe Nelson Sauvin hops. Flavor is a bit more tart, grapefruit, honey, hay, malty, grass, white grape, lemon. Medium bodies, soft, dry finish. Not really a gueze.

33 cl. bottle sampled @ Kulminator thx to Belgbeergeek // new version, coinciding with the new brewery // this time around it is a blend of their tripel & Boon lambic instead of Girardin // hazy, colour is this sad dishwashing citrus yellow, huge off-white head, standard for this kind of beer I would based on the scarce few examples that I have seen // on the nose I am picking up quite some grains blended with plenty of wheat, giving it the appearance of an extremely wheat heavy lambic, lactic, round with citrus going through it, triple is definitely present here, Belgian yeast // taste is full of & wheat heavy, lambic/gauze like by way more than I have ever encountered in one of those, lactic citrus, peach & dash banana, dash Belgian yeast & some bitterness coming from the triple, way more lactic than sour // body is dominated by yeast // not bad but I do remember the old one being better // this needs time for the lambic to start cleaning up he triple than it will get much better // should probably be aged for let us say 2 yr. in big bottles min. // don’t see that happening & don’t think that it even comes in that format

Huge, just yellowish head, fed by fine carbonation in bright yellow beer with orange haze, quite persistent at that. Lemony lambicnose with some spicy notes; grain, wheat and lemonbalm. Probably some white candi sugar. Dry, with again pointing towards w.c.s., bit of Brett, lactic acid flavour, citrus (mainly lemon but also possible limezeste) and wheat. There’s another fruity streak there, that is indeed reminiscent of (not quite ripe) peaches. Bitter backthroat. Very spritzy, slick, medium bodied. Nice try, very satisfying beer, even if it is really a mix.
