Commercial Description:
Please note the age of the sample you are reviewing when entering your rating. While many factors determine whether you have had "Jonge" or "Oude" Lambik, a general rule of thumb is to enter 1 year-old or older lambik under "Hanssens Oude Lambik" and anything less than 6 months-old under "Hanssens Jonge Lambik".

For those between 6 and 12 months of age, you should take in to consideration the character of the lambik. Samples presenting themselves as hazy/cloudy, with some head-formation and residual sugar should be entered as "Jonge Lambik", while those that are drier, higher in clarity and with little/no head formation should be entered as "Oude Lambik". If in doubt, message JorisPPattyn.

Draught Clear, yellow to orange body. Aroma: sourish, acidic (vinegar), green apples, wood, barnyard, ... Moderately sour, lightly sweet flavour. Quite nice, well balanced flavour. Quite complex. Soft mouthfeel, but wonderful.

Tap @ W.O.S.F. Light golden with no head. Aromas of peas, cabbage, musty cellar, grain and citrus fruit. The flavour is a bit watery yet dry and with tart notes of Toyota car seats.

WSF. Bright clover honey gold with slight haze and flat. Mild and woody aroma. Some apple skins, cores, tree barks. A really interesting aroma. Watery and easy flat palate. Really clean, smooth, and straightforward. The predominant flavors are apple, making this a nice and unique lambik.
