Cantillon - Saint Lamvinus

2020 | ? 4.4

Style / Variety: Lambic with Grapes
Region: Anderlecht | Belgium
ABV: 7.0%

Maceration of different grape varieties in two-year-old Lambic. Lambic can be rightly considered the missing link between the worlds of wine and beer, and Saint Lamvinus takes this one step further by adding grapes normally intended for wine production. Intense, fruity beer that lingers on the palate and has a clear connection to its winemaking origins.

Assembly 89 of season 18/19 | ? 4.42

3 Fonteinen Schaarbeekse Kriek is obtained by macerating local hand-picked full Schaarbeek cherries on young traditional lambic for at least one year, at a ratio of one kilo per litre.

Tilquin - Oude Quetsche a L'ancienne

2020-2021 | ? 4.19

Style / Variety: Lambic with Plums
Region: Rebecq, Wallonne | Belgium
ABV: 6.4%

The Quetsche Tilquin à l'ancienne is a spontaneous fermentation beer obtained from the fermentation of destoned fresh purple plums (variety Prune de Namur or Quetsche véritable d'Alsace, close to the Damson) in a blend of 1 and 2 years old lambics for a period of 4 months. Unfiltered and unpasteurized, it is re-fermented in the bottle for a minimum period of 3 months. The lambics used were fermented and matured in our own oak barrels at the blendery. They are made from worts brewed by Boon, Lindemans, Girardin and Cantillon. The taste is slightly tart but also fruity and round which makes this Quetsche à l'ancienne more accessible. It also has a slight dryness from the skin of the plums. The nose perceives a plum brandy perfume.
