Mort Subite Gueuze

Beer Description

Mort Subite Gueuze is preserved as a Belgian lambic-style beer from the Mort Subite family, known for tart, complex, mixed-fermentation character rather than clean lager refreshment. Exact product-level dating should be confirmed before assigning a first-known year, but the brand became Heineken-connected through Alken-Maes and Heineken’s 2008 control of that Belgian portfolio. Within the archive, it represents an important traditional Belgian sour beer identity, balancing fruit acidity, dry finish, and heritage brewing character.
