Lindemans Brewery Lindemans Cuvée René Oude Gueuze
What the brewers say
“A blend of different foudre-aged lambics.”
What our panel thought
“Green tobacco-like notes in the nose with hints of tar, wet hay, light fruit. Rustic and earthy with hints of smoke, leather, dried fruit, and a rich umami mushroom finish. Soft tartness lingers on the tongue as pineapple but blends well.”
What our editors thought
“Expressive stone fruit and asphalt, mineral nose—tires on hot pavement, with a peach kicker. Sip pushes dirty sulfur funk with glimmers of brighter fruit on the edges. A lingering hop bitterness.”
