OUDE GEUZE REBORN
With Oude Geuze Reborn, we mark a key milestone: 20 years since the revival of Oud Beersel. When the Vandervelden family stopped after four generations, a piece of Lambic history was at risk of disappearing. Gert Christiaens chose a different path and laid the foundation for a contemporary blendery where authenticity, innovation and collaboration go hand in hand.
Within the Reborn project, three variants are made.
For this anniversary blend, we welcomed brewers and hospitality professionals into our barrel cellar. During joint tasting sessions, they selected Lambics and actively contributed to the final blends. Not a symbolic collaboration, but true co creation.
What technically sets Reborn apart is that we worked exclusively with Lambic from Demi Muids and Oude Pijpen, with no big foeders involved. This results in a refined yet distinctive profile.
The base:
– Lambic from Demi Muids (630L) with an elegant vanilla note
– Younger Lambic from Oude Pijpen (650L), adding freshness and complexity
OUDE GEUZE OUD BEERSEL REBORN – BREWERS EDITION - 75cl
Oude Geuze Oud Beersel – Reborn – Brewers Edition (75cl) is a unique anniversary blend celebrating 20 years since the reopening of Oud Beersel. This Brewers Edition was born from an exceptional international collaboration: brewers from all over the world travelled to Oud Beersel to taste and select lambics straight from the wooden barrels, and to craft one shared blend together.
Reborn is built around 4-year-old lambic from Demi-Muids (630 L) with a pronounced vanilla note, blended with younger lambic from Oud Beersel’s Oude Pijpen (650 L). The combination of barrel types, ages, and this collective selection results in an unusually elegant Oude Geuze—an international collaboration that showcases lambic tradition and craftsmanship to the world.

OUDE GEUZE OUD BEERSEL – REBORN - 37.5cl
Oude Geuze Oud Beersel – Reborn (37.5cl) is a limited anniversary blend celebrating 20 years since the reopening of Oud Beersel. Reborn was shaped through shared tastings and collective selection—an collaboration centred on the art of blending, driven by a passion for lambic and the pursuit of one distinctive, elegant Oude Geuze.
This blend is built around lambic with a pronounced vanilla note from Demi-Muids (630 L), refined and lifted by younger lambic from Oude Pijpen (650 L).
