COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Geuze, a mixture of old and young Lambic. The young Lambic is added to cause a refermentation in the bottle making for a delightfully sparkling and dry beer that has been likened, in all seriousness, to Champagne.

JanEric (661) - Meppel, NETHERLANDS - SEP 16, 2009
37,5 cl bottle, bottled 2005-2006,best before 2028-:)Colour like a pils, somewhat darker, big head, dense. Aroma is bitter, sour, fresh, like apple, honey and orange. Tastes bitter, acidic, fresh, long finish of a reasonable bitterness, with taste of orange peels. Also champagne-like. Nice refreshing.

A nose of oak and cherries. Taste is acidic and without funk, and contains oak and apples. Palate is a bit sticky and carbonation is high. This is a pretty drinkable gueuze, it’s enjoyable and balanced. It’s no masterpiece, but I’d pick it over most IPA:s on a hot summer day.

Ygberg (139) - SWEDEN - SEP 9, 2009
Aroma of apple. Apperance is amber with a smalla white head. The flavor is souer, sweet and dry with hints of apple tart. A nice and drinkable geuze.

Aggy360 (115) - Anchorage/ Vista,CA, Alaska, USA - SEP 3, 2009
Pours a hazy golden straw with a nice white head. Strong yeast aroma, very champagne like, some Brett. Taste is sweet at first then a strong tart flavor comes along. This has a lot of malt and very light old hop bitterness, and a strong Brett character. Good carbonation and body. A nice brew.

holdenn (1841) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - AUG 25, 2009
’05 Bottle from the First Annual Sour Tasting, thanks to andrew. Pours a clear copper orange with a creamy bobbled off white head that laces down in spots. Somewhat stinky cheesy sweet aroma of phenols and chemicals. Citrus earthy flavors with tannins and funk. Long earthy bitter finish with the tannins and earthy hops. Odd and not enjoyable.

A bottle 0.375L from Alko shop. Nice pale head. Mild appley nose. Hazy pale orange/yellow colour. Some grapefruit in the taste. Hoppy bitterness. Some hints of apricot in the taste.
