Which is the oldest lambic you tried?
This Selection Lambic from 1999 despite what you would think doesn't taste like vinegar, in those 20 years from its release the flavors have developed to become a refined sour with young woody notes.
This is a real treat for lambic lovers. A 1999 vintage gueuze from the Belle-Vue brewery. This is recognized as the final traditional brew from this brewery after the original owners had passed away and their children sold the brewery to Interbrew (later to become ABI).
Lets party like its 1999!
Brewed at Belle-Vue
Spontanales & White Fish
Funky, bretty, lightly sour and vinous. Spontanales are a great alternative to a white wine. They pair greatly with asparagus and white fish. Spontanales while having a very distinct taste are light and don’t overpower any dish. They are great beers to share and let sit in the glass to develop over time. Thus, opt for spontanales when you are not in a rush.
Spontanale
Just like the sour ale, spontanale is the term that Mikkeller uses when brewing beers using the same method of spontaneous fermentation that is traditionally used in lambic. Since lambic is a regional specialty though, anyone brewing it outside of the Pajottenland has to call it something else.
