Boon Oude Geuze

Brewed by Brouwerij F. Boon
Style: Lambic - Gueuze
Lembeek, Belgium

Serve in Flute, Tumbler

Large, cloudy and foaming head with some bigger bubbles. Hazy orange liquid. Sour berries, fruits and a hint of wheat in the aroma. Sour flavor of fermented fruits. Especially the long finish has lots of this fruity sourness. Sparkling texture with a medium body. This geuze is the easiest to drink of those that I´ve had. This could have been more complex, but anyway this is a great summer beer.

Pours hazy bright dark orange. Bubbly offwhite head. Aroma like tart cantelope and champagne. Flavor very tart dry grapefruit. Wife thought she was drinking champagne as it does taste that close.

355ml out of a wine glass. Tight bubbles and cloudy. Aromas of citrus and yeast. Very dry and tart with some fruit and citrus notes.

355 ml bottle, best before 25/04/2027, does not have ’oude’ on the label- forceful champagne like carbonation behind the cork, has a very full and funky aroma, lemony and acidic, half-rotted hay, a touch of wet leather. Taste is grapefruit pith, citric acid, oak cask,a little remaining body exits leaving behind nothing but dry dry dry. I love gueuze.

38cl, from De Hopduvel Gent, easy to drink, cloudy, good head, good sour brew

A hazy golden colored beer, with a huge off white head. It disappears very soon. The aroma is malty sour, with tones of oak in the back. Also some citrus. The taste is sour with sweet tones. It has the flavor of oak. The after taste is some dry. The sparkeling stays for a very long time. The combination of tastes like bitter, a little fruity are staying for a while.
