Bottle 75 cl @ De Heeren van Liedekercke, Denderleeuw, Belgium. Hazy orange color with a large frothy good lacing mostly lasting off-white head. Aroma is grapefruit, wood, fruit / berry. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet and moderate acidic with a long duration, and a very dry finish. (fruit / berry sweet). Body is medium, texture is watery, carbonation is soft. Intense and very complex ;o))

Aug 23, 2008 Bottle shared at Cleveland tasting on 8-23-08. Thanks!! Pours a hazy gold color with a thin white head. Aroma is oak, funk, and just all around tart. Has a medium body. Taste is very tart with a smoothness on the finish. I detect lemon with some wood and an overall mellow tartness overall. This is a nice start to the tasting today. I really enjoyed this.

Aug 10, 2008 Enjoyed at Heeren van Liedekercke. High acidity and moderate bitterness led to a harshness I didn’t expect... Made for an interesting drink that wasn’t as refreshing as it might have been. Orange-copper color with nice white head. Musty lemon nose, sour lemony flavor with that bitter backdrop, very lively carbonation, quite acidic. Pretty intense flavor. Glad I got to drink something rare from one of my favorite breweries, but I wish it had been smoother.

Aug 5, 2008 Bottle at Casey and Traci’s tasting 01-08-08, cheers you two for a great evening, thanks also to Mes for recomending this and where to buy it, cheers! crikey any more thank you’s and it’ll begin to sound like an Oscar acceptance speech Pours hazy golden orange in fact in the light of Casey and Traci’s Morroccan lamp this beer looks like the oily run off from a spaghetti bolagnese. The citrus sharpness bites first and its like getting a preserved lemon washing the salt residude off and then rubbing it around your gums fantastic. There’s a lemony wet sheep aroma some nice gentle carbonation, slight furry lemon at the end, its soft, drying and very nice indeed.

Jul 8, 2008 Updated: Jul 13, 2008Thanks to Hopdog for sharing this 750ml bottle dated 6-9-2003. It poured cloudy gold in color with a few sparse white bubbles. Aroma is tart, brett funkiness, oak and awesome. Taste is tart, oaky, funky, citric, and just wonderful. The Roze has more of a mellow tartness, and overall more flavors then the Blauw. It’s really a complex brew to describe, but it really is incredible. I never thought I’d have the chance to try this. Thanks again Steve!!!
