Blend of young and old lambics with a farmhouse saison from our friends at Brewery Nevel. This oat saison was brewed in August and aged for 8 months in lambic barrels. Fermented, aged, and bottled on the farm.

Bottle: Poured a bright yellow color ale with a large white foamy head with excellent retention and some lacing. Aroma of wild yeats with some funky esther, some rustic malt notes and light tart and oak notes. Taste is a wonderful mix of wild yeast notes of funky esther with some oak notes with a vinous tart finish. Body is about average with excellent carbonation. Wonderful mix of high-level complexity with some very good drinkability.

Small if resistent snowwhite head with some lace over hazed golden beer. Floral, soft lambic Bretts, lemon/lime, lactic acid, very soft horseblanket. The oats are even in the flavour, soft lemon with very little acidity, lactic, whitecurrant, cornoil and maizesugars. Quite slick, "thick" for a lambic based beer, good carbonation. Quite unsettling (in the best possible way) on the fence between saison and lambic - and on the border of Be and NL? Lovable. Txs to Stef!
