Brouwerij Boon(Belgium)
Posted by Ian on 17th Mar 2021
Citizens,
Since 1975, Boon Brewery has been owned and run by Frank Boon, one of the pioneers of the authentic lambic and gueuze revival. But the first signs of the brewery date back to 1680, as a farm-brewery and distillery in the village of Lembeek.
Boon is the only brewery to have won six consecutive gold medals at the World Beer Cup (2008,’10,’12,’14.’16,’18).
Enjoy

BOON OUDE GEUZE VAT 108 BIS 375
Foeder N°108 is a cask of 10.000 liters made in 1935.The lambic of this foeder enriches the character of our geuze blends
The wine-like accents in this Oude Geuze are combined with a clear 'old beer' character which causes for a strong and robust taste with unmistakable, but not overwhelming volatile acidty.
RateBeer: 100/100

In collaboration with HORAL (the high council for artisanal lambic beers) and the province of Flemish Brabant, we are currently testing different subspecies of the scissorsbeek cherry.
