"In Gooik's fields ripen the most beautiful apples, those appels ferment together with lambic to this Pajotse cider. This variety of apples gives an intense extra flavor to the lambic that is fermented on wooden barrels. 45kg on 100 liters young lambic."

Lambic matured with Cassis (Black Currant). Around 300 grams of fruit per liter of lambic.

Lambic matured with blackberries. Around 300 grams of fruit per liter of lambic.

"bzart Kriekenlambiek Brut Nature is a sparkling pure brut quality beverage based on ”Kriekenlambiek Oud Beersel” (cherry Lambic of Oud Beersel) which is a craft beer produced according to the traditional rules of the “Méthode Classique”.
Cherry Lambic is a Belgian spontaneous fermentation beer made of Lambic to which sour cherries are added.
The used “Kriekenlambiek Oud Beersel” is traditionally brewed with real sour cherries and with Lambic Oud Beersel that matured in wooden barrels. It contains some 400 grams of sour cherries a litre which is unique in its kind.
This kriekenlambiek is bottled and then the “Méthode Classique” (Classic Method) is applied during several months. This means that after adding sugar and a sparkling wine yeast, the “liqueur de tirage”, this kriekenlambiek is re-fermented. Carbon dioxide develops and is locked in the bottle which causes the kriekenlambiek to become effervescent. Other intrinsical steps, such as the “remuage” (riddling) and the “dégorgement” (disgorging) follow, which eventually lead to a sparkling, refined beverage. It is typical for bzart Kriekenlambiek that no “liqueur d’expédition” (shipment liquor) is applied before adding the cork.
This beverage also combines the best of two worlds, the festive character of sparkling wine and the full flavour of artisan brewed kriekenlambiek."

"Méthode Traditionelle: Brut non dosé"

Season 19/20 Assemblage #16. Bottled on 08/01/20. "For this specific Oude Kriek, we macerated sour cherries for seven months on stainless steel. The lambikken that were used originate from five different barrels and five different brews. The final fruit intensity is 334 grams of sour cherries per litre of Oude Kriek. 100% 3 Fonteinen."

The new Horal's Oude Gueuze Megablend for the 13th "Toer de Gueuze". It was made with lambics from 10 diffrent Brewers and blenders of gueuze: Boon, De Oude Cam, De Troch, Hanssens, Tilquin, Lambiek Fabriek, Lindemans, Mort Subite, Oud Beersel and Timmermans. Bottled in September 2020.

"The Gueuze Tilquin à l’ancienne (7.0% alc / vol) is a spontaneous fermentation beer obtained from the blending of 1, 2 and 3 years old lambics. Unfiltered and unpasteurized, it is re-fermented in the bottle for a minimum period of 6 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 tart and dry but has a certain roundness that makes this Gueuze à l’ancienne particularly accessible for non-experts. It will also delight fans of the genre for its sweet complexity. It also has a slight dry bitterness because of the youth of the oak barrels used, as they still release some tannins. It has a fresh lemony nose."

Organic lambic matured with organic cassis (Black Currant). Around 300 grams of fruit per liter of lambic.

Season 2019-2020. Assemblage #78. Bottled on 30/09/2020. "For this Oude Kriek Intens Rood, we macerated sour cherries for almost nine months partly on oak and partly on stainless steel. We chose both jyoung and two-year oude lambiic for maceration, originating from four different barrels and seven different brews. We blended with another two young lambics from one barrel and two brews. The final fruit intensity is 458 grams of sour cherries per litre of Intens Rood. A part of this blend was bottled on 750 ml bottles and a part on magnums. 100% 3 Fonteinen."

"In Gooik's fields ripen the most beautiful apples, those appels ferment together with lambic to this Pajotse cider. This variety of apples gives an intense extra flavor to the lambic that is fermented on wooden barrels. 45kg on 100 liters young lambic."

"Oude Geuze Boon Black Label Edition N°7 brings us back the typical long, dry aftertaste, yet very full-bodied taste that we are used to from Boon Black Label. With a very fresh citrus note and pleasant sparkle you can enjoy the Boon Black Label N° 7 as an elegant, easily drinkable tender Oude Geuze. This Edition N°7 was bottled on June 8, 2021. The blend is a mixture of lambic matured in oak barrels for one, two and three years. The Oude Geuze Boon Black Label Edition N °7 is a perfect aperitif beer. It is certainly also an ideal gueuze to enjoy with patience. It goes perfectly with fish dishes, such as combinations with oysters, salmon or mussels."

The HORAL Oude Geuze Megablend 2022 is a blend of young and old Lambics from all HORAL producers (Den Herberg, Hanssens, Mort Subite, De Troch, Lambiek Fabriek, Boon, Lindemans, Timmermans, Tilquin, De Cam, and Oud Beersel).

Pack consisting of a botlte of Oude Gueuze Cuvée Paul and a bottle of Oude Gueuze from the season 2021-2022. A few words about the new blend: ""GUEUZE TILQUIN À L'ANCIENNE – CUVÉE PAUL was blended on 2 March 2022 in honor of Paul Tilquin (1909 - 2005), grandfather of Pierre, with 30% 1-year old lambics, 30% 2-year old lambics and 40% 3-year old lambics, all matured in oak barrels. Unfiltered and unpasteurized, this beer was refermented and matured in the bottle for 1 year. It is part of our Family Tree Project: a different blend for each member of the Tilquin family tree."

"Oud Beersel’s Lapsang Souchong Sparkling Infused Lambic is an infused Lambic, which is then re-fermented in the bottle. For this version, Lapsang Souchong was used: this is a smoked black tea, which gives the beer a complex, round flavour, with a peaty touch at the end, which can also be found in certain peated whiskies. The refermentation in the bottle gives it a pleasant carbonation. In short, a beer for lovers of the better heavy stuff."

"Although its name suggests otherwise, the szechuan pepper is not a real pepper, but a distant cousin of the citrus fruit. For this beer, the red version was used, which has a slightly fruitier flavour than the green and provides a slight tingling effect on the aftertaste. Other than that, citrus aromas and a certain spiciness emerge. The refermentation in the bottle provides the necessary minerality and balance, so the presence of the szechuan pepper is not overwhelming."

"To create the Roasted Oolong Tea Sparkling Infused Lambic, one-year-old Lambic was infused with roasted Oolong tea for about four weeks. This tea, especially popular in Asia, is slightly oxidised and was then roasted in the traditional way. This results in a rich flavour, with a certain spiciness and some toasted notes. Thanks to the re-fermentation in the bottle, these flavours blend into one harmonious whole."

"Oud Beersel’s Witte Lambiek Sparkling Infused Lambic takes its inspiration from traditional Belgian wheat beers: these are characterised by the addition of coriander seeds and bitter orange peel. The same thing was done here: both ingredients were macerated on one-year-old lambic for several weeks to obtain that typical, citrusy flavour, which is further highlighted thanks to the acidity of the lambic. The spiciness of the coriander is present in the aftertaste, but does not dominate. Thanks to the refermentation in the bottle, the result is a beautiful beer with traditional flavours, yet just that little bit different."

"Blend of young & old lambics, with wine from beetroot. The beets were carefully selected and harvested from our own field. This blend consists of wood aged beet lambic and beet pomace from maceration. Fermented, aged & bottled on the farm."

"Blend of young & old lambic with quince wine. Three varieties sourced from two local farmers. The fruits were hand-picked from the orchards. We press the fruit and let it spontaneously ferment in lambic barrels. Fermented, aged & bottled on the farm."

"Blend of lambic macerated with organic cherries and cider. The fruit is blended with lambic then macerated for months. After this, the lambic matures further on barrel. The final blend with cider is done just before bottling. Fermented, aged & bottled on the farm."

Pack consisting of a botlte of Pêche Jaune 2022-203 and Oude Gueuze from the season 2021-2022. Pêche Jaune: "Beer of spontaneous fermentation, the Oude Pêche Jaune Tilquin à l'Ancienne is made from the fermentation of 230 g of peaches by liter of lambic. Unfiltered and unpasteurized, this beer is refermented in the bottle."

Blend of 2 year old lambics macerated for 8 months on 2021 Riesling grapes with botrytis aged for one year in oak barrel. Bottled Still. Limited to 189 bottles.

"For the production of the Rose Flower Lambiek - Sparkling Infused, we added rose petals to a soft, foeder-aged Lambic and left them to macerate for about 4 weeks. After that, we bottled the beer so a secondary fermentation could take place. The result is a slightly pink Lambic, with bright floral notes and a sparkling mouthfeel. "
