Bottle thanks to miketd, you are the man Mike. Poured a clear golden color with a thin white head that receded to a ring. Aroma of tart, funky barnyard with healthy doses of straw, horse blanket, and some light fruit including citrus and soft berries. Semi-sweet, tart entry with some funky barnyard yeast and some dry straw and horse blanket lead into a light citrus fruitiness dominated by sour lemon. Low carbonation, smooth on the palate with a nice dry bite. Awesome, thanks again Mike.

Many thanks to JK for sharing. A solid geuze with plenty of the usual suspects - animal sweat, yeast, tartness, funk. Delicious. A similar taste with a decent sourness.

38cl, from De Hopduvel Gent, complex, balanced, hazy, small head, good sour geuze

Bottle. Pours a clear golden color with a longlasting creamy white head. Tart fruity citrus aroma with barnyard hints. Tart sour fruity citrus flavor. Has a rourish tart fruity finish with hints of citrus.

Carried home on my back from Belgium, March 2007, found in Baccus Cornelius, Brugge. Cloudy yellow and tall, thick white head. Aroma is standard lambic with yeast and horse blanket. Some citrus fruit, lemon, yeast, and a little vinegar. Sour and appropriate to style, but not as sour as a Cantillon or 3 Fontienen. Maybe a little thin on the palate, but full flavored.

Thanks to JK. Yellow pour with a creamy white head. Tartness on the nose with barnyard funk. Tart citrus notes with the funk carrying over nicely in the flavor.

Thanks to JK! Hazy gold color with a large head. Strong sour aroma. Some lemon and musty barn air as well. Plenty of sour wheat taste. Very dry finish. Solid.

Aroma of cork and light malt. Cloudy hazy yellow pour. Very sour drink very dryish and refreshing. Solid carbonation and medium bodied. Very solid beer that seems to clean your mouth out as you drink and as you might imagine a nice clean finish.

Appearance: Pours a clear, orange-golden body marked by a few stray bubbles. Smell: Tart-smelling aroma of white wine, bales of hay, pear preserves, and dust-covered cobwebs. Taste: Damp hay, a particularly tart chardonnay, and a restrained funkiness - all with a fist-clenching acidity. Hints of lemon wedges and sliced pears. Pleasing mustiness throughout. Lightly sour finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Mild carbonation. Drinkability: Some may consider it somewhat tame, but it’s still a very tasty, very satisfying brew.
