From a 375mL Bottle, January 22, 2004. Pours a murky, orangish gold color with a thin layer of whitish head. Woody aromas of tart peach pits, mango skins, and green crabapple flesh that creates a tart, fruity bouquet. A nice leathery, cidery funk adds some welcome complexity. Light bodied, champagne-like effervescent mouthfeel. So simply in composition, yet so complex in flavor. Sour, acidic flavors of crababble skins skitter across the tongue initially, followed by some pithy lime rind and more leather. Final smack of a fine stilton cheese melted over baked pears.

Aug 17, 2008 The aroma is sour with tart fruit, lactic bacteria, yeast, urine, wood, and sugar. The appearance is cloudy and copper with a small head. The flavor is tangy is like the aroma. The palate is average. Overall not something I want again despite being complex and highly ranked here.

Aug 17, 2008 Gueuze is not very favorite style, however I can appreciate this beer because of the expressive flavors, and the non abrasive tartness of the beer. its pours lively with some substance, it sourness is strong tangy with the mild wood in the background. well done.

Aug 16, 2008 Bottle (vintage 11.30.05): Pours a clear golden color with a small white head. Still full of carbonation. Smells sweet and fruity, woody, and tart. Apples and oak. Taste is again, sweet and fruity followed by lots of tart and some woody notes. A wonderfuly smooth and puckering experience. Thanks to BuckDich for delivering this splendid gueuze.

Aug 13, 2008 Vintage 2000- bottle shared courtesy of piscator34- nice looking stuff- golden hay colour and good carbonation. Nose- wood, citrus, leather. Taste- nice citrus zing, some green apple, very dry and woody. Goes down easy.. Finish and mouthfeel is more dry than puckering. Very solid

Aug 11, 2008 Tastes like lime, lemon, and grapefruit juice all romed into one dry, funky concoction. Sour and acidic but still very enjoyable and drinkable. Lively carbonation gives this a light and refreshing mouth feel. Too bad it’s so expensive where I live, but I’ll buy it again.
