One of the very interesting things I learned during my many lambic brewery and blendery visits in November was the creation of a new lambic beer, especially for the 2009 Toer de Geuze (Tour de Gueuze.)
The event will occur on Sunday April 26, at nine of the eleven remaining lambic producers: all except Cantillon and Girardin.
The new beer is called "Geuze Mega Blend."
This brew is a blend of lambics from eight of the 11 remaining lambic producers; namely: Boon, De Cam, Drie Fonteinen, Hanssens, Lindemans, Oud Beersel, Timmermans and De Troch. Geuze Mega Blend was bottled October 15, and is currently maturing in 75 cl bottles. I hope to experience the Tour, and look forward to tasting Geuze Mega Blend!!

Hey Chuck, fascinating news. I wonder what lambic De Cam provides, since it's a blender and not a brewer?
