Style: Lambic - Gueuze
Lembeek, Belgium

Serve in Flute, Tumbler

Bottle thanks to Axilla. Poured hazy golden orange with a white foamy head. Aroma is nice; a little funk, and citrus. Flavors of lemons, orange, a slight mustyness. The aroma was promising, but the taste was certainly less tart then I was hoping for.

Pours hazy golden with small short lasting head. Sour aroma with clean brett charateristics. Flavor is clean sour with grapefruit, wood and barnyard notes. Maybe to clean. Lacks character.

Bottle. Brewing season 2001-2002. Pours a hazy deep golden orange colour with a fast diappearing head. Mouldy, sour, fruity and woody aroma. The flavour is tart with a nice not so typical lambiek sourness, good bitterness, some ripe fruits, staple, citrus and some wood. A rather "mild" lambiek.

Personal "New Years Night of 1000 Gueuzes" continued with this best before 2/12/2025, so almost 3 years old, 375mL cork and wire bottle. The color is more orange than golden (more so than the gueuzes before it) and hazy. Aroma is light vinegar with some barnyard and faint sweet rubber. Taste is light on sour and acidity for an Oude Gueuze, and actually a bit sweeter than most gueuzes. This seems to take away from the dryness. Also seems to add to a bit of slickness in the mouthfeel, which has a lightly spiky feel. Least interesting and complex of the Oude Gueuzes so far.

Pours a cloudy golden/orange color body with a foamy white head. The aroma is a little musty with some light fruits present. Flavor is starts off wheaty with some mild green apple and a musty finish. A very mild tartness.

bottle. pours a hazy honey with a thick white head that fades pretty quickly, but leaves a bunch of chunky lacing. sharp lemon and orange citrus smell, with a bit of funk. more of that citrus in the taste, combined with some grape, a bit of spice, and a bit more funk. good sour dry finish with a medium body, a lot of carbonation, and an aciding, thin, filmy mouthfeel. a decent gueuze. though i’ve had better, i certainly wouldn’t turn this down. this is quickly becoming one of my favorite styles. that’s weird to say for a big-beer/hophead like me.

Bottle. Pours a hazy, golden colour with white head. Very sparkling indeed. Aroma and taste of nothing but sour fruit. I’ll take a kick to the groin any day just to avoid this beer. Not fond of lambic/geuze.

Bottle. Poured a medium and cloudy orangish color wtih a larger sized white head. Aromas of green apples, citrus, and a little funky. Tastes of the same. Light pucker finish.
