History / Other Notes

'Adelaar' is originally a poetic name for the eagle, a bird that has traditionally made a big impression. Because of its courage and strength, it was sometimes called the king of birds. Legend has it that an eagle was spotted several times above Gooik in early November, 2020. It took a bit, but he landed.

Old geuze is the result of mixing, filling, and having lambics of different vintages re-fermented, with the oldest lambic at least 3 years old. This mixing and re-fermenting is very important for the quality of the geuze, and requires the brewer's craftsmanship and experience. Oude Geuze is therefore a protected name for a beautiful traditional beer that may bear a GTS (Garanteed Traditional Specialty) label. Taste the craftsmanship of Willem and Koen "pulled on bottle".
