Oud Beersel, one of Belgium's last remaining authentic lambic blenderies, infuses its traditional lambic with pu-erh tea. This fermented tea, sourced from one of the world's oldest tea plant varieties, imparts a deep red colour and powerful earthy character to the lambic. The aroma reveals a complex interplay of funky lambic notes with fruity character, green apple, and subtle spice. On the palate, tea tannins merge with lambic's natural tartness, while pu-erh adds earthy depth that makes the beer approachable without masking the signature funk. Bottle conditioning creates natural carbonation that blends the flavours into a harmonious whole. A thoughtful experiment in contemporary lambic brewing that respects tradition.
