__NOTOC__
== Description ==
Lou Pepe Geuze is part of Cantillon's Lou Pepe series which is bottled on a regular basis. The series also contains the [[Cantillon_Lou_Pepe_-_Framboise|Lou Pepe Framboise]] and [[Cantillon_Lou_Pepe_-_Kriek|Lou Pepe Kriek]]. Lou Pepe Gueuze is not a gueuze in the traditional sense. It is made from two year old lambic that has been aged in used wine barrels. To carbonate the beer, a small amount of sweet liquor is added after bottling , causing the refermentation in the bottle.
According to Cantillon's official website, "the particular name of these beers comes from the south-west of France, a region the Cantillon family is very fond of. In this beautiful region, the grandfather is called Lou Pepe." <ref name=“CantillonLouPepe”>http://www.cantillon.be/br/3_109 Cantillon - Lou Pepe</ref>
