As big fans of geuze-style beers, we wanted to give our own spontaneous fermentation beer a go. To our own surprise, with success. Aside from our own Spierelambiek - our spontaneously fermented beer named after a tiny river that runs near the brewery - we use two traditional lambieks from the valley of the Senne (close to Brussels) to make a blend. One, two and three year old lambieks are used in Mirakel, our own miracle.

Poured from 750mL bottle (2022 vintage). Orangey gold with small white head. Funk, lightly earthy, a touch subdued, okay.

750ml @ Ryan's shared with Alex, Phill, and Josh, trying to figure out the Okanagan trip because weather is preventing us from Golden Ears camping 😬.
Aroma: funky, a bit metallic.
Taste: funky, quite sulphuric, a bit of fruity notes, noticeably bitter, a bit on the acidic side with a touch of acetone.
Overall: decent.

2022. Amber. Haze. Thin head. Earthy aroma. Soft body, earthy. Decent bitterness, lemony accents, touch of wood. It’s good, not overwhelming complexity or anything.

Bottle, bottled nov 2019. Color: Clear golden, large white head. Nice lacing. Aroma: Funky, fruity unripe grape, gooseberry. Taste: Moderate tart, very light bitterness. Rural funk, minerally, oak wood, fruity citrus fruit, some unripe grape and gooseberry. Dry-ish mouthfeel, some tannins. Medium body, below average carbonation. Quite smooth, a little creamy mouthfeel. Aged very well, although there's no cork on the bottle. Maybe it's time for a new batch of this nice Geuze, De Ranke?

Bottle shared with the boys. Barnyard, light phenols, funk, apple skin, citruses, and the most surprising of all, sesame. Loads of it. What's there not to love?

Very nice! I believe two of the three lambic parts are from Girardin, the other is De Ranke. 2022

2020 version. Aromas are yeast, fresh cut grass, spice, with a little honey and dry grain. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, moderately tart with some bitter and back and a hint of sweet. Good body and crisp carbonation. Thirst quenching finish. Good stuff.
