| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 25, 2009 12.7 oz. bottle, bottled Nov. 30, 2005. Pours a clear golden orange with a big fizzy white head, moderate retention and minimal lacing. Aroma is musty and funky. I have no vocabulary to really describe this style at all, so that’s as good as it will ever get, however I do like it a lot. Flavor is tart and sharp, with some more funk and must. A dry and fairly abrupt finish, which surprised me. Very drinkable sipper, and overall a little less intense than others I’ve tried in this style, but good stuff just the same. fata2683 (860), Panama City, Florida, USA

Flavors are very sour, more so than any other I have had. Ends with a lingering dry sour note. This is good. grandgenie (252), gatineau, Quebec, Canada

Drank in a stem glass. Poor a couldy caramel color with a small off-white head. Aromas of crab apples, my oid humid basement... i can honestly say that it smells like my freakin’ gym bag. This has to be the ultimate gueuze. Ultimate sourness, acid beyons beleife.... Not to drink ifyou have bad ulcers, unless you have a roll of tums ready. Taste is basically the same as the aromas added cranberiies.

Aroma of sour and tart and wood. Taste is of apple. Lots of earthly flavors mixed in. Excellent. pineypower (1090), Pine Barrens, New Jersey, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jan 6, 2009 Bottle from Capones. Vintage 2005. Pours out a cloudy light golden/straw color with a moderate slightly off white head. Sour, vinous aroma with some tart fruits. Taste is complex and well balanced sour funkiness goes with some tart apple, citrus and some earthy notes. Well done. HonkeyBra (1319), Lemont, Illinois, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jan 2, 2009 Feb 2nd, 2007 bottle. Hazy golden pour. Thought about saving this to crush with carythedude, but it seems like he crushed one without me. So screw him. Funky, sour aroma. A bit citrus, a bit of hay, and maybe some cheese? Flavor is sour and oakey, lots of tart fruits. Pretty awesome. shadey (1496), Rochester, New York, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Dec 31, 2008 750ml bottle from BOTW. Bottled Feb 28 2004, consumed Dec 31st 2008. Almost 5 years old. The cork comes loose with a loud pop and the pour is a muddy gold with a big pillowy head of white lace and cream. Aroma is sour as expected with some nice citrus. Flavor is sour, but balanced and not overwhelming. There is some funkiness and a very odd touch of what can only be described as vanilla? Very strange, but nice. A fantastic way to end the year.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 29, 2008 Crushed with Jakebra. Dadbra called it mink piss. I think its a little better than that. Old man mustiness and sour fruitiness. So much fun to give a gueuze to someone who hasnt tried one yet and watch their face.
