Description

Lindemans Loerik (Flemish for 'lazy boy') was a Cuvee Rene gueuze blend from 1996 that did not referment in the bottle. A brewer does not set out to brew this still gueuze, so batches like this are unique when they occur. Lindemans Loerik had additional sugars due to the lack of bottle fermentation. Over time however, this beer did slowly ferment, creating carbonation and a unique body.

This particular batch only had 1 and 2 year old lambic. Lindemans Loerik was sold in Sweden as Lindemans Oude Lambik. Bottles were also available in Belgium as Lindemans Loerik. B

Unsubstantiated Information

Bottles sold at De Heeren in Belgium indicate on the menu that this is a batch from the year 2000, however there is no indication of a Loerik other than the 1996 batch. There is also a bottle mentioned on Untapped from 1989 however this batch cannot be validated either.
