Frank Boon, de oprichter van onze brouwerij, geeft de fakkel door aan zijn zonen Jos en Karel. Hij mag met fierheid terugblikken op zijn carrière als lambiekbrouwer. Voor deze gelegenheid creëerde Frank een speciale blend, Apogee, met lambiekbier uit de oudste en de nieuwste foeder. Frank’s pioniersrol om traditionele lambiekbieren terug op de kaart te plaatsen, is van onschatbare waarde. Dankzij zijn passie, kennis en vakmanschap kan men van een lekker glas Oude Geuze genieten thuis en in heel wat cafés. Met Apogee viert de brouwerij enerzijds de brouwers carrière van Frank Boon, en anderzijds de overdracht van Brouwerij Boon aan de volgende generatie, Jos en Karel Boon.
De Oude Geuze Apogee werd op 29 april 2019 gebotteld en is een assemblage van 1, 2 en 3 jaar oude lambiek. Voornamelijk werd 2-jaar oude lambiek gebruikt uit onze nieuwste foeder (N°83), samen met 3-jaar oude lambiek uit de oudste foeder (N°79). In totaal werden zo'n 22.500 flessen gevuld. Elke fles is genummerd. Op de achterzijde van de fles vind je het flesnummer.
Santé!

750 c&c from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours gold with a nice creamy white head. Apparently the yeast haze is at the bottle bottom. Light aromas of lemon and Brett. Med body. Gueuze it is! Very dry. Somewhat woody. Still going with lemon and Brett. Gets some astringency with time. Bretty funky. Excellent.

750ml @ Matt's (thx for the beer and NO thanks for the metal music, man!!) house. Appearance: hazy golden with a weak white head. Aroma: lots of sulfur at first that mellows down later, lots of minerals. Taste: along the same lines, quite funky, minerally, and aggressive. More intense than usual. Overall: a bit over the top, but it's good.

It's amber, with a bit of sort of floaties haze. Very thin head. Big leathery aroma, touch of sweet malt. It's generally dry, a bit leathery, light brett. Wood comes through as well. Subtle lemon juice thing. Really nice complexity that grows on me.

750mL bottle, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma is full of barnyard funk, sulphur, and a touch of citrus. Flavour has a nice funkiness, with plenty of barnyard funk, gentle citrus, earthiness, and a touch of sulphur. Finishes funky, sulphury, and citrusy. Very nice blend.

Big pop on the 750ml cork.  Clearish dark gold.  White head.  Nose is so bright, 2 year shining, lemony and funky, chardonnay barrel, stinky, medicine cabinet.  Flavors same.  Carb is high and takes away just a bit.  Finishes dry and funky.  Good.  8 4 8 3 15
