Eylenbosch Framboise Cuvee Speciale

Formerly brewed at Mort Subite (Alken-Maes / Scottish & Newcastle)
Style: Lambic - Fruit
Kobbegem, Belgium

Draught at Plan B. Hazy red coloured with a light pink head. Aroma of raspberries with some sweetness and woody and acidic notes. Nice flavour with lots of raspberries and notes of wood and some acidic notes. Finish of berries and wood. Very balanced.

(Bottle 25 cl) Pretty, pale reddish colour, small head. Pronounced raspberry nose. Very raspberry flavour with a discreet sweetness on an underlying tart base. Nicely balanced between the sweet and the sour. Lovely Framboise considering this was never really my favourite style. 170598

Bottled, vintage 89 @ Akkurat Nice sweet and tart frambozy aroma. Hazy strawberry color, creamy lacing head. Mellow on berries, sweet with slightly dusty roasted edges. Light berry dryness, sparkly mouthfeel.

Tap, Vintage 86 @ Plan B
Cloudy red, off white creamy head. Big fruity aroma - extremely fruity for its age actually. Brilliant balance of fruit vs. Sourness, marzipan red fruits pralines with port. Sparkly dry mouthfeel

Draught, Plan b. Fruity with notes of biscuit and caramel. Refreshing acidity in the finish. Well balanced but could use a little more lambic character.

On draft@plan b Copenhagen. I’ve tasted this 15 years old gem quite a few times over the last couple of months. Every keg is different in colour and taste, But every one of them is wonderfull. The balance between the sweetnes from the raspberries, and the acidicty from the lambic is outstanding. I recomend that everyone who can, get a sample of this beer. But save some for me!

Draft at Plan B, Copenhagen. Allegedly they have the last kegs in the world, aged approximately 15 years. My favourite lambic beer (so far). Very nice raspberry notes and an excellent balance between the sweet fruitiness and the refreshing acidity! According to our host Eylenbosch used 300 g (10,6 ounces) of fresh raspberries for every 37,5 cl bottle!?

Draft @ Plan B, Copenhagen. This sample was about 15 years old. Plan B has only a couple of kegs left of this fine brew, its the last kegs of this beer in the world!!! Light red body, bubbly, no head. Nice sweet raspberry nose, backed up by some sourness and nice fruityness. Very sour flavor, raspberries of course, dry, woody and a another late sourness. This beer is so balanced. Very nice beer, have to try it again. About 6.5$ for a 25 cl sample!!!

Orangey-amber colour. Aroma is slightly grapey, raspberryish with leather and horseblanket. Fairly sweet - raspberries with cream - leading to a late, appley tartness. Sweet & sour, sugary, fruity finish. 1989 vintage, tasted at 15 years of age.
