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. Golden colour, not much head. Aroma is sweetish, but yet very sour wooden and slightly grassy. Flavour is sour fruits along with earth and mould. Quite tasty and pleasant.

2007 lambic from a plastic barrel in The Rake. Clearish gold colour. God this was good. The right level of funk, acidity but really smooth as well and would happily have drunk this all night. Based on Girardin apparently.

A Mes rate: Draught. Dry lemony hop nose. Fruity and dry in the mouth. Lots more lemon folling on from the aroma, light spice and a very delicate tangy sweetness. Satisfying smooth palate. Tasty lambic.
