Aug 1, 2005 Hand pump at 3 Fonteinen (restaurant) along with a dish of rabbit in geuze!!
Unclear amber orange color, thick solid off-white head. Mild aroma of wild fermentation and grapefruit, fresh but no sweetness from the sugar. Sweet and sour in the flavor but not tart. Full-bodied and creamy in the mouth. Woody tones and hints of sugar. An excellent faro served in excellent conditions.

Sep 12, 2004 Hand pump. Nice sour lactic nose, musky malt, hops. Floral. Cloudy dark orange-amber, with off-white foamy lacing head. Medium bodied with light carbonation. Great sweet-sour balance. Strong gueuze taste with perfect balance of sweetness. Rich taste, not watery like other faros I’ve had. Smooth fruity finish and light bitter after. Great faro.

Oct 9, 2004 Dusty musty typical lambic nose - completely enjoyable. Hazy deep gold color and low foamy head. Sugar is certianly present but balanced by a perfect sour. Returning sweetness towards the end. This is the best faro I’ve ever had.

May 17, 2006 Draught. Hazy, pulpy orange-brown with a medium whitish soapy head. The aroma has grapefruit, lemon pulp - very pleasant, among bread notes. Smooth and certainly very fruity with grapefruit and wheat undertones. Sweet grapefruit finishing almost like one of those Ocean spray cocktails. It’s pretty good but I wouldn’t want to drink a lot of it.
I had the rabbit in gueuze too! Sampled at the restaurant in Beersel on May 11, 2006.
