← Cantillon

Description

Cantillon Monk's Café Cuvée De Monk's Gueuze is a special gueuze blend that includes amarillo hops and 50% lambic from new oak barrels. The blend was hand selected by Tom Peters of Monk's Café in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Jean Van Roy.

History / Other Notes

During an Open Brew Day in the 2005-2006 season, Cantillon added 20 kilos of Amarillo hops at the end of the boil after a discussion with Tomme Arthur (the Lost Abbey), Adam Avery (Avery Brewing), Sam Calagione (Dogfish Head), Vinnie Cirluzo (Russian River), Rob Tod (Allagash), and Tom Peters who were visiting.

In 2008, Jean Van Roy believed that the 2006 brew was too hoppy and agreed to let Tom make a special bottling using that batch. Tom selected 250 liters of the three year old lambic with amarillo hops, 500 liters of new wood two year old lambic, and 250 liters of one year old lambic.

At a Monk's Cafe Mad Monday event in August 8, 2011, a hand-out was available explaining the available beers. The description for this beer was provided by Monk's Cafe on this handout and can be seen in the gallery below.

Unsubstantiated Stories

The hand-out mentions that this is Tom Peters's second gueuze blend. It is unclear if Tom Peters is referencing a previous batch or an entirely different gueuze. If you have any additional information, please contact Bill or Adam.
