Bottle at EBF. Poured amber brown with a small tan head. Fruity sweet aroma with notes of ripe fruit. Flavour is bit sour but sweet fruit overmatches it. Strange gueuze but drinkable.

oro poca schiuma note di legno acetiche in bocca lieve acidità poi diventa dolce....

25 cl. bottle. Aroma of mixed light stone fruit and prune. Dark amber color with a light tan head. Medium body with fizzy carbonation. Slightly sour, but mostly sweet, and there is a touch of cooked plum. Ok, but not titillating the mouth.

330ml bottle purchased at a shop and consumed on the station platform waiting for a train. Has a weird spoiled fruit nose of old peaches and apricots, with some tart apple cider and fruit syrup sweetness... apples, pears, honey, etc... mild tartness overall, faro-like mostly, with some resemblance to soda pop as well (sprite-like carbonation). Boring sweetened juice stuff, basically, not surprising.

Bottle, bought @ YNWA, Kolding.
[vintage 1999]
Pours hazy amber with nearly no head. What is there, fizzes away almost instantly. Aroma is apple, vanilla, oak and lightly fruity tartness. Rather fizzy with big bubbles. Flavour is rather sweet, lots of apples, good oakiness and semi-dry finish. Okay, but more like a cider/faro than a gueuze.

Clear amber with tiny head. Sweet and aour aroma with woody notes. Flavor likewise with light farmhouse notes.

Clear brown of color with a beige head. An aroma of dark fruits, sweets and sour notes. A flavor of sweets and some sour notes. Tasted more like a faro than as a gueze.
