There is something in the air around the River Senne in Lembeek, outside Brussels. And that something is the secret behind the spontaneous fermentation that makes lambic beer unique: air-borne yeasts. Skilled master-brewers use these wild yeasts to brew and then “cut” (blend) gueuze lambic beer. Taming the yeast and creating unique brews is what the Boon Brewery does.
Oude Geuze Boon is a monument of taste with an alcohol content of 7%. It’s a magnificent blend of 90% mild 18 month-old lambic, 5% strong 3 year-old beer and 5% very young lambic, which provides fermentable sugars and wild yeasts.
Boon Geuze Mariage Parfait has an alcohol content of 8%. It consists of 95% mild lambic, aged at least three years and specially reserved for this purpose, and 5% young lambic.

The cherries and young lambic create a red beer that is both natural and fresh, with an absolutely unforgettable sweet and sour taste. This is kriek as it should be, with nothing but real cherries and lambic. There is no place for artificial colourings or flavourings.
The casks give this beer its fine oaky flavour with hints of vanilla and cloves. It boasts a wide mouth with a warm body and roundness reminiscent of dried cherries and wild tastes. This is soft mildness personified.
Raspberry lambic was once a rarity and only produced for a few weeks during the summer. Frank Boon was the first brewer to again prepare a raspberry lambic in the summer of 1976. More than 300 grams per litre of fresh raspberries give Framboise Boon a fresh fruity taste.

Boon Oude Kriek è uno dei migliori esempi di fermentazione spontanea con frutta 100%. 400 g di ciliegie selvatiche per litro sono fermentati insieme con un mix di giovani e vecchi Lambic Boon che è stato invecchiato in botti di rovere.
