3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Looks like lemonade with a huge, frothy, off-white head.
The aroma is of lemon, grapefruit and yeast.
Tart and tangy, well-balanced flavor.
Light-bodied with a fizzy mouthfeel. Liquid Joy! Very nice gueuze!

Bottled 375ml cork & caged from Hopduvel Warehouse, Ghent. Clouded orange with white head. If you had some of these flavours in any other beer, it would go back, but in Geuze Lambic, it just works. Sparkling, citric and tart, lemon rind with sour apples, its just crazy but very drinkable.

Bottle at The Comet in Cincy. Poured an amber color with a average fizzy head. Yeasty champagne aroma. Light body with lively carbonation. Light complex bitter flavor with a short finish. Very intersting brew.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
A Mes rate:
Both the aroma and flavour are buttery and slightly metalic with maybe some vanilla cake. Very slight funk and barnyard. Iron type flavour coming through instantly in the finish followed by a pleasant hint of strawberry. Too much carbonation for me. It’s all bubbles in the palate. Not the best geuze I have tried but fair. The Mariage Parfait is infinitely better. It settles quite a lot in the bottle. The last last bit is very cloudy but smoother and not as tart.
