Description
The Gueuzerie Tilquin began operations in February 2009. It was 12 years that a new gueuze-producer had emerged in Brabant (the previous was Geuzestekerij De Cam in Gooik, which began in 1997).

The Gueuzerie Tilquin is the first gueuze blendery in Wallonia. The company is located in Bierghes (Rebecq), 200 meters from the linguistic border, and is directed by Pierre Tilquin. Pierre is bio-engineer and holder of a PhD in statistical genetics. He then followed an intensive course in brewing science in Leuven, and he had his experience at the brewery Huyghe (Melle), 3 Fonteinen (Beersel) and Cantillon (Anderlecht).

A nice gueuze, with a nice sourness and a little barrel funk, and lightly fruity malts. One drawback is that the finish tended toward feeling a bit empty, as if the malts just disappeared, leaving it very dry and thin. Amber, almost tea-like color, fizzy, not much head.

Bottle at Local Option, Chicago. October 22, 2011. Hazy light amber with a medium white head. Nice funky aroma with citrus, grape, vinegar and some oak. The taste was dry and tart, really good and refreshing. I look forward to drink this beer again.

375 ml bottle from Etre Gourmet. Poured into 3F tumbler. Hazy, amber/orange liquid with medium light off-white head. Funky, sour aroma of lemons, apples, barnyard, wheat, wood, leather, earthy notes and nice brett. Taste is medium tart, medium to high sour and light sweet. Notes of apples, brett and wheat. Nice and fruity. Very balanced, drinkable and refreshing. Medium bodied with high, but soft carbonation and dry mouthfeel. Long, sour finish. Very well balanced and drinkable Gueuze. Not bad for a gueuzerie this young!

draft@Delirium: hazy amber/caramel with basically no head, taste is acidic, musty, barnyard funk, sour, tart, lemon acid at first with the Girardin lambic dominating, sharp, bit odd lambic which appears to be a bit to young to have gained any dept followed by an aftertaste which is caramel, brown sugar & touch of fruits (melon, papaya,…), the base seems to lack some dept and sophistication, they might benefit from older lambic or maybe even trying a bit different blend but it is still interesting as it stands now
