Made using Lambic from 3 different years and is ecolabel certified. The young Lambic, at one year old, provides sugar for the 2nd fermentation in the bottle whilst the 3 year old Lambic gives the flavour. Once bottled the beer rests on its side for a year until it becomes sparkling, thus a Gueuze.

Acidic, white vinegar and sour cherry.

Lingering acidity and white wine vinegar. Not for everyone but more approachable than many a gueuze.
