== Description ==

Jean Van Roy partnered with renowned austrian winemaker Willi Opitz to create the Goldackerl Gueuze. The goal was to create a beer using grapes infected with Nobel Noble Rot (Botrytis Cinerea). The moisture where these grapes are grown forces water out of the grapes and crystalizes the sugars. This intensifies the flavors and adds unique characteristics.

Opitz sent Van Roy a 50/50 blend of 35kg of Sämling and 35kg of Welschreisling grapes. That is the same 50/50 mixture that Opitz uses to make the Beerenauslese Goldackerl wine. <ref name=rbgoldackerl>Ratebeer - Cantillon GoldAckerl Gueuze, http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/cantillon-goldackerl-gueuze/46963/</ref>
