The Cassis Tilquin à l’ancienne (6.3% alc/vol) is a spontaneous fermentation beer obtained from the fermentation of frozen blackcurrants in young lambics, blended with 1, 2 and 3 years lambic to reach a final concentration of fruits of 200 gr fruit per liter. This is a different version from the Experimental Draft Versions #1 and #2, as no Meerts lambic was used to lower the ABV of the blend. Served for the first time as a premiere at BxlBeerFest 2019 and sold at the blendery from 6th-7th of September.

(Bottle) Hazy reddish amber colour with brief, foamy head. Fruity nose with black-currant, red fruit, strawberries, funk and barnyard. Fruity, tart taste with notes of black-currant, red fruit, plums, citrus, barnyard, oak wood, a touch of vinegar and funky yeast. Low bitterness. Medium body, quite dry. Rich and tatsy, with a fresh acidity. Very nice.

Slight hiss. Pours close to flat, fairly thick. Pretty dark pinkish red, cloudy. Quite thick mouthfeel. Dry, bit sour but not puckering. Lots of fruit, but still lambic first. Good funk, cheesy, oaky. Very tasty, but I do miss some more carbonation here.
