I know that we had this topic before, but I would like to have a list with the producers and the fact wether they are producing filtered, unfiltered LBVs or both (maybe with an extra remarks section such as: "Warre holds back its LBVs until ready to drink" or "Niepoort has not marked that its an unfiltered LBV).
Any comments or hints very welcome. Please use the format:
Producer: Grahams
filtered LBV only
very fruity LBV
Producer: Noval
filtered and unfiltered LBV (says on the bottle)
very good and rich LBV, especially the traditional
Producer: Niepoort
unfiltered LBV only
no remarks
I will issue the summary, when ready

Axel - I don't drink enough LBV to be able to say whether a particular producer only makes one style or another, so my comments below are based on what I have seen.
Alex
Producer: Quinta do Crasto
Unfiltered LBV from 1995
Producer: Croft
Filtered LBV from 1983
Producer: Grahams
Filtered LBV from 2000 and 2001

Producer: Quinta do Vale Dona Maria
Unfiltered LBV from 2002
Producer: Warre
Filtered LBV from 1999 and 2001
Unfiltered LBV from 1995 and 1999
tend to release the filtered LBV 2-3 years before the unfiltered
