Ambreus Oude Geuze Villa Servais
Description
For this blend, Ambreus, together with Jean-Pierre, Erik, Pieter-Jan, and Bastiaan, selected lambic from Lindemans, De Troch, and Den Herberg for the 10th anniversary of Villa Servais.
The blend of 4 barrels, each of 225 liters, consists of a barrel of 1-year-old lambic, a barrel of 2-year-old lambic, a barrel of 3-year-old lambic, and a barrel of 4-year-old lambic.
This lambic matured in small barrels, which provided extra depth and character from the wood, underlining the age of the blend.
