375 ml bottle to snifter (BIG thanks to alexsdad06). Looks good; a cloudy gold with thin white lacing. Smells good too; cheese, barnyard, funk, and sweaty socks (in a good way). Tastes like it smells with a good mouthfeel. Good beer.

Bottle snagged during RBWG 2013. Hazy golden pour with a nice off-white head. Funk, barnyard, lemons, slight fruitiness, and definite tart in the aroma and flavor. Tasty!

Batch 3:
Wow, this was delicious!! Extremely cheesy, as if it has been aged for 10 yrs. Incredible balance between sour and funk. Probably the best American Geuze i have ever had
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Batch 3, I think (bottled ~6/2012). Big, bold, cheesy aroma. Barnyard funk, hay, horse blankets. Sour and citric. Flavor packs a real punch. Reminds me of an aged Cantillon (*not* 3F) gueuze.
I couldn't stop drinking this. Absolutely delicious; hands down the best batch yet.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle, 03/31/2013. Pours hazy golden orange, small head, dies down to a flat surface. Aroma is tart, sour white fruit, bitter grapefruit, lemon, funky bleu cheese and wood. Taste is green apples, grapes, nice citrus component, sweet and tart, funky finish, oak. Maybe just a touch of acetone that throws me off near the end. Light, smooth palate. Really nice interpretation of the style, tasty, it grew on me more as the beer warmed.

Bottle. Pours hazy gold. Slight head with no lacing. Aroma is big, funky and tart. Taste is the same. Not very complex, but very pleasant and excellently sour. Slightly puckering but not overwhelming.
