Nice lemony aroma. Good acidity, it has a very smooth flavor that is marred slightly by a shot of bitterness through the aftertaste. Not tremendously complex, but well made.

The Dan Journal #17. Tasted 5/30/06. 750ml bottle. Hazy and golden brown. Lacing white head. Musty aromas with hints of apples and pears. A wood aspect. Tart and sour flavors. Esters abundant. Lively and delicious.

375 ml corked bottle. A very unclear pale amber beer with a small and quite disappearing white head. The aroma is sour, yeasty and intense, with notes of lemon, wood and sour fruits. The flavour has a light to medium sweetness and a medium to high acidity, with quite light bitterness. Very fruity and citric. Medium body, lively carbonation, dry long finish with light bitetrness. Not the most extreme lambic, but at the same time more drinkable and at the same time refined and complex.

Hazy golden with a white head. A sour aroma of vinegar, horses and old apples. A nice sour flavor of granny smith apples, horses and stable. A dry and bitter finish.

375ml bottle@Kristiansand lambic festival. Hazy golden body with a creamy white head. Aroma is acid and sour grapefruit. Flavor is relatively mild acidulous compared to many other geuze. Still sour with a hint of citrus peel and malt! A nice treat and a good place to start for the lambic virgins.

Re-rate, 1999 Oude Gueze from Dunk @ RBSG summer gathering. Pours copper with no head. Nose is tart. Taste i svery tart and nice. from a 750ml bottle that i was so happy and shocked to see tonight at a party. Pours hazy orange with a little head. Taste is really nicely funky and strong with great sour potency. A really solid gueze if your in the mood.

The pour is a hazy moderate golden with a nice white head. Aroma has notes of sosurness, earthiness, some slight vinigar, fruitiness, and barnyard. Flavor has a twang to it with a sweet and sour combination. In addition tastes of fruit and an earthiness are present. Slight astringincy at the finish with a touch of vinigar like acidicy.

Bottle. A hazy yellow without a head. Aroma is sour, but is still based on a malty sweet base, giving it a barn-like expression. Flavour begins with a yeasty sourness, then turns around with oak, caramel, and a round finish. The sourness lingers all along - a great example!
