Om de 140ste verjaardag te vieren van Oud Beersel, opgericht in 1882 door Henri Vandervelden, creëerden we een unieke Oude Geuze samengesteld uit enkel foeder-gerijpte Lambieken. We selecteerden drie speciale foeders voor deze blend, die is samengesteld uit één- en tweejarige Lambieken van 40HL foeders en een driejarige Lambiek van een 120HL foeder die zich op de tweede verdieping van onze stekerij bevindt.
Deze combinatie resulteert in een blend met een gemiddelde leeftijd van 30 maanden, wat deze verfijnde Oude Geuze een buitengewone complexiteit geeft.

Corked bottle from The Gull, North Vancouver, bottled 10/11/2021, 2.5 years ago
Blond colour, more cloudy than hazy, with small but persistent head. Powerful aroma, funky, horseblanket, sour fruits. Bone dry, and highly carbonated; strong funky character, the acidity is moderate, there's some orange peel character too, and mild astringency in the finish. Not extrememly complex, but with nice funky character.

Bottle shared in London - cheers to Dan. Pours lightly hazed gold with a dense, creamy white head. Lightly sweet with pleasant pale wood, soft grass, tangerine, light funk. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Clean finish, bone dry, more mellow dried citrus, pale wood. Super sound.

After removing the cage the bottle opened itself with a strong ejection of the cork. Pale blond colour with light haze and strong carbonation. This is considerably sharper than their standard Oude Gueuze with notes of lemon and Granny Smith apple. Behind that some drier elements coming from the barrel point towards Fino sherry. Strongly flavoured and with layers of complexity. Adding some of the bottle yeast gives a touch of funk too.

Bottle @ home. Slightly unclear golden body under a fine white head. Nice, smooth funky aroma of pale malt, apple cider, citric fruits, grapes and mild wood. Taste is amazingly smooth with malt, apple cider, citric fruit, mild lemon, grapes, wood, cellear notes, mild funk and some bitterness. Fine body with long lasting, smooth, tart finish. A really nice, complex, smooth and refreshing geuze. From parallel tasting of 135- and 140-years edition. Not a big difference really when sampled in 2023. Both are amazing.
