Nov 23, 2006 This beer looks nice: pretty, clear, orange-copper-colored, with a lush head that eventually fades down to a small lacing. The aroma is terrily stinky: a great indication of a lambic - smells cheesy and musty. The flavor is much milder than I exected, and I really wish I had cheese with this one. It is really very tasty: slightly malty and sweet, pungent and tart, with hints of peaches or apricots. Nice.

Nov 23, 2006 I wanted something special for Thanksgiving, and this beer is not disappointing me (not as great as the LP Kriek, but I don’t think much can be ) - clear straw color, with large, but quickly fading head - very funky, barnyardy aroma, that one of my family members (not a beer drinker, obviously) just described as smelling "like a skunk" - oh well, more for me - surprising initial hop flavor up front, but this fades very fast, making way for a very mellow sourness (strange for this brewer) - very strong oak flavor, with a hint of vanilla that gives the beer a slight whiskey character (but it is very gentle) - wheat (and other grains) and horseblanket/earthiness on the back end - I’ve never had a beer with such a strong oak presence that wasn’t overpoweringly woody - I wonder how they do it - quite approachable for a Cantillon, but delicious none-the-less.

Nov 23, 2006 (Bottle 75 cl) Slightly hazy, deep golden with no head whatsover. Distinct - yet mellow - acidic aroma with notes of horse blanket and all that. Fairly light in body, vaguely sourt with Brett accents. One of the more smooth and accessible gueuzes. 281006

Nov 21, 2006 (2003)Slightly hazy yellow/orange with a tiny head. Fruit, vinegar, grass, citrus and yeast. Nice balance and a perfect, full bodied beer at the moment.

Nov 18, 2006 Bottle says 2000 - Cork says 2002. Pours bright gold into a tumbler. Fluffy bright white micro head slowly recedes and leaves clumpy lacing. Crisp, sour barnyard funk. Sharp cheese with lasting sour yogurt finish.

Nov 10, 2006 Bottled at Horsens Beerfestival. Clear, golden with almost no head. Mould, barnyard and citrus in the aroma. The flavor has mould, sourness, yeast and unripe-green apples. Thin body and astringent. Quite nice. (061028)

Nov 6, 2006 2002 bottle. Beer 33. Horse blanket, yay! Not as funky in the flavor, but still quite complex and crazy. A very nice gueuze.
