→Description
Lambic d'Aunis (previously labeled as Pineau d'Aunis and Pinot d'Aunis) was originally a test batch using Pineau D'Aunis grapes provided by Olivier Lemasson at [http://www.wineterroirs.com/2012/06/olivier_lemasson_vins_contes.html Les Vins Contés]. This beer is very similar to what was later brewed and released as [[Cantillon Zwanze 2011|Zwanze 2011]], however that beer also had Brambling Cross hops added. Pineau d’Aunis grapes are a minor grape from the Loire region of France. This is the same region as the [[Cantillon Menu Pineau|Menu Pineau]] grape. Pineau d'Aunis grapes are known produce a light and pale wine with earthy, herbal, and distinctly spicy notes.
In early 2016 a new version of this beer appeared with a newly printed label as Lambic d'Aunis. Jean Van Roy has confirmed that this will be the name of the beer going forward.
