sliffy (1930), Columbus, Ohio, USA May 1, 2006 Updated: May 20, 2007 Bottle from the georgians: Hazy gold color with a light white head. Aroma is sour some lemon and sour apple. More lemon and apple in the flavor, not overly sour. But still simply amazing. Possibly the hi-light of the night.
Re-rate 5/19/07 C-Bus 7: Didn’t take notes, but this blew me away again. So softly balanced, not overwhelmingly sour at all. Had to re-rate, this stuff was incredible.

Pours hazy yellow-golden with a big, frothy, off-white head. Turns into a thin film. Aroma is funky, good overripe apples and citric tartness. Fine, dry mouthfeel. Flavour is wonderfully dry, lots of barnyard, citric tartness, overripe apples again. Wonderful. Doggythedog (921), Split, Croatia Jul 10, 2008 RBESG08 grand tasting Aww, my first 3 Fonteinen gueuze.
