Lindemans Oude Gueuze Cuvée de l'Amitié is a limited edition lambic blend created exclusively for our fans in the USA. Its name roughly translates to 'Friendship Blend', an ode to the blending process that was a collaboration between the brewery, friends and customers from the United States. Cuvée de l'Amitié is a unique blend of three, five and six-year-old lambics aged in large oak foeders. It is a traditional Oude Gueuze with notes of green apple and elderflower. Each sip ends with a dry and sparkling finish, similar to fine champagne. Lindemans Oude Gueuze Cuvée de l'Amitié was recognized by Beer Connoisseur and Craft Beer & Brewing magazines for its exceptional flavor and presentation. Production was limited to 12,000 bottles, available in select US states.

Appearance

Crystal clear golden hue with sparkling clarity topped with a light, white foam head. Effervescent and classic.

Aroma

All the characteristic aromas of spontaneous fermentation are present and beautifully harmonized in the aroma of this outstanding Oude Gueuze. A complex yet elegant bouquet for the senses.

Tasting notes

A remarkable balance between acidity and fullness in every sip. Hints of green apple, citrus and elderflower characterize Lindemans Oude Gueuze Cuvée de l'Amitié, giving it a more subtle, dry flavor compared to the brewery's gold standard Oude Gueuze Cuvée René.

Our brewers’ secret

In the summer of 2024, our brewers curated a selection of aged lambics from several of the brewery's oldest foeders for sampling to honor several visiting guests and customers from the United States. Together with our production team and brewmasters, we experimented with different combinations of aged lambics, creating unique blends and voting on our favorite. Thus, Lindemans Oude Gueuze Cuvée de l'Amitié was born! The etched bottle was designed to honor this collaborative process.
