Tilquin Meerts

Description

Tilquin Meerts, a mars style beer, is a component of the Gueuze Tilquin (Draught Version) which is blended with one and two year old lambics. It comes from Brouwerij Boon. Tilquin stated via RateBeer that "the Meerts (or March in English) is a low alcohol lambic brewed by Boon for Gueuzerie Tilquin, to be used for making the Gueuze Tilquin (Draught Version). It helps to decrease the global level of alcohol of the blend. Traditionally, Meerts was obtained from the second wash of the grains, during filtration, and was fermented separately from the first wort... The particularity of this Meerts, is that it can be drunk very young (3-4 weeks), and was a sort of pour-man’s drank to have during field work."

History / Other Notes

Tilquin Meerts was served at the brewery during the 2013 Toer de Geuze.
