Gouden Carolus Indulgence [Indulgence, noun, \in-'dәl-jәn(t)s\ something that is done or enjoyed as a special pleasure] is a limited series of beers brewed every year with varying content. These ‘Indulgence’ brews are exclusive delights to be savoured at special moments or shared with special people.
Cuvée Sauvage is the 2nd taste to be produced under this label. Gouden Carolus Cuvée van de Keizer Rood was blended with 2- and 3-year-old Lambic (20%) from the Boon Brewery (Lembeek). This union combines the best of two brewing traditions: full-bodied and subtly flavoured, fruity and refreshingly sour.

Hazy yellow/golden. Aroma is apple, a little raisin, some vanilla. Like a good balanced cider. TAste is minerally cheesecake and apple at first. Some sweet apple and apple peel. bitter leathery funky finish. Not 100% tasty. A little too much apple peel. Still good.

Bottle. Deep golden, nice offwhite foam. Funky dusty grainy, light apple esters. Medium body, nice foamy. Light fruit/bubblegum/green apple, dry lambic notes lingering, a bit wood and cobweb, still some sweet apple pie notes in the finish.

Bottle. Clear golden color with large long-lasting white head. Aroma is apple peel, light funk, not much Lambic just fresh yellow apple, a touch cinnamon, Bratapfel. Taste is apple peel, cinnamon-ish, bubblegum, leather, just a touch of the Lambic character there. Sparkly carbonation, not overattenuated. Quite dry after 2 years, good!
