			It has been poured at the brewery's taproom on occasions, and about 10 years after release, Jean Van Roy said the original bottling was only starting to shine and long terme aging is probably best for this particular beer.

	The creation of Lambic d'Haute Densité started in 2010 when Cantillon brewed a high-alcohol lambic resulting in a 9.7% ABV beer with 8° Plato residual sugar. This was repeated in 2011 resulting in a lambic of 8.7% ABV. The brewery wrote in June of 2013 that "because of the high alcohol level, we had no more evolution after 2 years and we decide to blend those two brews and to bottle it in February of this year." Thus the Lambic d'Haute Densité was born.
