Geuze is made from lambiek (lambic) returned from different years ("seasons")
. Lambic is brewed from water,barley and unmalted wheat. No addition of yeast
; the process of fermentation is setup by an inoculation of the wort by the microbial flora (pitching).
A series of complex biochemical pathways is still yielding its secrets to brewing science.
A European directive concerning agriculural products and food makes a disctinction between
"oude geuze" ("old gueuze") and "geuze". "Oude Geuze" is entirely made from lambic as in conjuntion to
"geuze".
