In the bottle from Beertopia. Dated 22 January 2004. Pours a hazy deep straw gold with a thick white head. The aroma is acidic and has an odd burning rubber/asphalt scent. Tar-like. The flavor is super tart and once that sourness saturates your palate, there is not so much in other anticipated complexities. I guess I just don’t get it.

Bottle shared by mmtmatrix. Poured a clear yellow-orange color with a thick 2 inch head that faded to a bubbly layer and left some spotty lacing. Aroma of tart, funky barnyard yeastiness with hints of horse blanket and some acidic fruit (citrus and berry). Tart, crisp entry with some moderate acidity with hints of berry leading into a barnyard yeastiness with hints of horse blanket that finishes dry. Moderate carbonation and spritzy mouthfeel. Good stuff.

2005 dated bottle at the Delirium Tremens Cafe in Brussels. Small fizzy head, nice champagne like carbonation in the glass, pale yellow gold color. Perfect sour apple tartness and citrusy flavors.

A rosy looking, delicate beer. Taut aromas of spiky fermentation and rustic apples. Big, champagne carbonation suits the lemoniness. Lots of apples like a scrumpy cider giving it a real fruity refreshment. I’m not into geuze generally but this is so delicate and lovely.
