Cuvee Reserve

◎ Appearance

Hazy golden hue with pronounced cloudiness from active wild yeast and suspended solids. A delicate, fine-grained head forms at pour but dissipates quickly, leaving only a wispy ring of lacing around the glass. Bright light passes through the body with a luminous, almost opalescent quality characteristic of unfiltered farmhouse ales.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with ripe stone fruit—pear and white peach—layered beneath fresh hay and a gentle herbaceous note. A delicate white-wine florality emerges, reminiscent of aged Chardonnay, mingling with the distinctive funky earthiness and mild Brett character inherited from the Belgian Lambic component. Air exposure brings hints of dried flowers and a subtle mineral undertone.

◐ Taste

The palate opens silky and elegant, with a bright thread of lemon zest and crisp green-apple tartness that drives across the mid-palate. A gentle funkiness and wild-yeast character develop gradually, balanced by subtle oak tannins from ageing on Lambic lees. The beer remains dry throughout, with restrained bitterness (10 IBU) allowing the layered fruit and fermentation complexity to dominate without harsh edges.

◑ Finish

Dry and refreshingly acidic, with a lengthy, lingering fade. White-wine notes and a faint earthy funk persist well after the swallow, inviting another sip.

Serve at 6–9°C for the best flavour balance and aroma expression.

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
