Traditional Oude Geuze VAT 109 is a ‘Monoblend’ composed for 90% with Lambic from cask (foeder) N°109 (ex Cognac barrel) and 10% young lambic.

The Lambic used for this Geuze was brewed on the 16th of April 2014 and bottled on the 18th of April 2016. Foeder N°109 is an oak cask of 9000 liters and it is over 100 years old. It was built in Germany around the year 1910 by the company Drexler as part of a series of four foeders as a “beer foeder”, but since 1935 it was used to stock Cognac. The cask ultimately arrived at Boon in 2009. Vat 109 is the first bottling of lambic brewed entirely in Boon's new brewhouse that was installed in 2011.
