Hazy orange body. Dry citric aroma with grassy hops. Dyr flavor - grapefruit rind, acidic peachy yeast and a light pale malt. A nice refreshing guezue.

Bottle shared by Anker. Hazy golden body with a small white head. Complex aroma of citrus, fresh fruit, barnyard, acid and Dijon mustard. Its medium bodied. Acidic and dry flavour with citrus notes. Overall its a very well crafted gueuze.

Bottle at the White Horse, Parsons Green, 25th March 2008 with renffisch. Standard cloudy orange gueuze appearance with a lovely lime and gooseberry aroma. Tart goosebeery flavour which lasts but with a sweeter softness in the middle to balance it. A good gueuze. I think I’m beginning to like the style :)

Oh man, I had my first sample and almost yelled, "This is the shit!" Smooth easy sourness, woody and hay aromas and something off bone dry that’s about as challenging as a martini with a lot more pay off. Not the best gueuze on the table but pretty darn good.

2004 bottle. My first from this brewery, and much thanks to Tom (oldgrowth) I was able to try this fantastic brew. Pours out a cloudy orange color, not much carbonation. Sweet citrus in the nose, and a nice upfront sourness on the first taste. As that fades it leaves way to oakey flavors, wood, and the ever present sourness. Awesome. Probably the best geuze ive had to date, glad I have another bottle of this, to last me for a while.

Love the good gueze and this is one of them. Dry and sour with a nice oaky wood presence. Acidity is bang on and the citric level is just right.

375 ml bottle mail ordered from Liquor Max in Loveland, CO. Bottled 30 Nov 2006. Pour is hazy orange golden with a big fluffy white head and audible carbonation. Aroma of tart, sour, funk, barnyard and some sweet citrus fruit. Really beautiful nose, stunning. Taste is initially sweet rounded sourness, transitioning to a funky, woody, earthy tart, dry slightly bitter finish. Orange, lemon and pineapple tart sweetness is also present. The taste is both dry and mouth watering at the same time. Hard to explain, but really works great. This was a really good one, a joy.

Vintage 1999 bottle. Hazy amber or orange color with a white head, The taste is a sweet beginning with a very nice balanced sour finish. Has some notes of grapefruit. If you can say something bad about it, it would be that it comes of a little thin.
