Label

Label text (U.S Import):
Aged in vats of more than 100 years old, De Cam's OUDE LAMBIEK is a blend of unpasteurized 3-year-old lambics specially selected by brewer/blender Karel Goddeau for their character and roundness. Still, without a head, OUDE LAMBIEK should be chilled and enjoyed like a fine white wine but prized for the wonderful, fare, spontaneously fermented Belgian Ale that it is. Proost!
