Lindemans Oude Gueuze Cuvée René is an exceptional beer brewed in the traditional Belgian style. This Oude (old) Gueuze, also spelled geuze, requires a minimum of 3 years per batch before it is ready to be enjoyed. Each batch is crafted at our historic Belgian brewery from spontaneously or ‘wild’ fermented lambic beer that has been aged in oak barrels, called 'foeders'. We blend barrels of one and three-years-old lambic, then allow the bottles to undergo a second fermentation as they 'rest' for 6 months. We use the oldest method of brewing in the world to brew this EU-protected style and are one of only a handful of breweries that remain dedicated to brewing lambic beer today!

Lindemans Oude Gueuze Cuvée René has a sparkling, golden color and a distinctive complex, sour taste. It is bottled like champagne with a cork, cap and festive gold foil, and available in 12oz and 750ml bottles. Lindemans Oude Gueuze Cuvée René pairs beautifully with seafood and shelfish like oysters and mussels. It is often enjoyed in place of champagne at special celebrations.

Due to the second fermentation that takes place in the bottle, the shelf life is the same as that of a high quality bottle of wine. Bottles can be stored in a cellar lying on their sides for up to 10 years and often more, saved for a special occasion as the taste continues to develop.
