hopIQ found 10 beers with the same sour and fruity character as Gueuze Lou Pepe. A gueuze built only from two-year lambics, often from barrels that previously held nothing but wine. No young lambic goes into the blend; the second fermentation runs on added liquid sucrose, which the brewery says lets more intense fruit come through. Since all the lambic comes from one brewing season, each Lou Pepe carries a vintage. The name is what the Van Roy grandsons call their grandfather Jean-Pierre. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
