Bottles

3Fonteinen Oude Kriek (2020) 6% 375ml bottle It is produced by macerating cherries, including the pits, in young lambic. $24/btl.

3 Fonteinen Oude Geuze (2017) 6% 375ml bottle A blend of one-, two-, and three-year old traditional lambics, all brewed at Brouwerij 3 Fonteinen. Spontaneous fermentation, patient maturation in oak barrels, and continued evolution in the bottle result in a distinctively complex beer. No two bottlings are alike. $24/btl.

Tilquin Gueuze Squared (2016) 7.6% 750ml bottle This is a higher abv version of the Oude Gueuze Tilquin containing the blend of 1, 2 and 3 year old lambics in oak barrels. Due to over-carbonation, the beer underwent a second barrel aging process before being bottled a second time. $55/btl.

Holy Goat Blood Goat 6.6% 375ml bottle BA Flanders Red with Scottish Blueberries. Inspired by Flanders Reds of old, Blood Goat is a blended sour red ale combining 80% provision strength ‘young’ stock beer aged 4 months, with around 20% ‘mature’ stock beer aged in neutral wine casks for around one year. The combination of old and young beers has produced a complex sweet and sour flavor profile with a subtle oak character. This blend was transferred onto 200g/l of spent blueberries and lees from a previous batch of Cerulean, in addition to 100g/l of fresh blueberries which further intensify the berry characteristics in this beer. $18
