For this second fully organic Cuvée Armand & Gaston, we blended one-, two- and three-year-old lambikken coming off five different barrels and not less than sixteen different brews.
Almost sixty percent of the lambikken were three years old at least on the moment of bottling, rendering the weighted average age of this blend to more than 24 months.
All of the cereals that we used were sourced within our own cereal collective, and 30% of those grains are heirloom land races.

Pours a bit unclear , blonde. Medium sized , stable white head. Scent is barnyard and clear funk, elegant citrus and freshness. Relatively much wood as well. A typical aroma for the modern 3F .
Taste is full, rhubarb-like acidity, even a touch fruity (obviously no rubarb in here) Citrussy, fairly dry, some tannins even. Woody. Vibrant, mild barnyard. High CO2. Decent, pretty unique to the rhubarb like character (never really had that in an unfruited lambic before).
