Lindemans SpontanBasil is a distinctive Oude Gueuze from the Belgian brewery's Botanicals range, created in collaboration with Mikkeller. The beer blends spontaneously fermented lambic aged one to three years in oak with fresh basil leaves infused via a tea-bag method. After bottling, it undergoes secondary fermentation, delivering the characteristic liveliness of a true Oude Gueuze.

The aroma balances herbal basil notes with subtle funk, oak, and hints of citrus. On the palate, the refreshing tartness of traditional lambic harmonises with the aromatic brightness of basil, complemented by light oak and wild yeast complexity. A clever, well-crafted expression that pairs equally well with Asian and Italian cuisine.
