Kinz (1871), Glen Allen, Virginia, USA Nov 26, 2007 Richmond "industry" gathering, one of my contributions, 1999. Medium gold. Aromas and flavors were a match, and all just huge. Cheddar, sourness, funk, wood, hay, and more sourness of course. Another incredible beer at this tasting. aspidites (1268), manteca, California, USA Mar 8, 2005 Updated: Feb 21, 2006 Holy Geueze, Batman! this is so well made it is like liquid crystal. Amazing Cantillon base that takes ip up a notch or two over lesser examples of the style. More complex and dry acidity with a huge citrus tart balance. Great nose, body and finish just awesome. Depth, complexity and balance that defy description. grat (433), Austin, Texas, USA Aug 1, 2004 2000 Vintage: An excellent gueuze. Pours an exceedingly shining golden color. Nice head that quickly dies. Nose is fantastic. So sour i can smell it across the room. Notes of sourness, horseblanket, wheat and pine needles. Flavor is appetizingly dry with a hint of wheat and blue cheese. In the afterpalate one might find dill. The best Gueuze I’ve had.
G-rat KrausenJockey (561), Stockton, California, USA Oct 23, 2006 The best of the bst. This is a Gueze standard to which all others can be compared. Perfectly dry while still filling the palate with fruit and sourness at the same time. This beer just keeps evolving as it sits breathes and warms....ITS ALIVE!!!!!!!!!! sliffy (1930), Columbus, Ohio, USA Dec 23, 2007 Bottle: 2000 vintage. Poured initially clear gold with a lively white head, some haze as the bottom of the bottle was reached. Aroma, great funk, with some lemon, acidity, and tartness. Flavor, some vinegar, funky barnyard notes, lemons, nice acidity. The thing that struck me the most was the balance of it all, not a sour bomb, not overly funky, just right down the middle. Outstanding stuff.
