Cantillon Gueuze 75

Cantillon Gueuze Lambic 75 cl

ABV: 5.5%

Several years and fermentations in a single blend! In the 18th century, a Benedictine monk named Dom Pérignon discovered the process of champagnisation by mixing different non-sparkling white wines. About a hundred years later, a brewer in Belgian Brabant mixed several lambics, resulting in a secondary fermentation in the bottle. Gueuze was born!

About the beer

The lambics produced at Cantillon are considered “young lambics” up to one year of maturation, and they are only considered to have reached full maturity after 3 years. Cantillon Gueuze is the final result of a complex blend of several lambics of different ages. The master brewer selects and tastes about 12 beers of different ages and barrels, and selects between 5 to 6 to produce Cantillon Gueuze. Each year the beer that is produced is slightly different; the spontaneous evolution of each of the beers makes it impossible to control and create beers that are exactly the same in every production.
