Golden color, heavy barnyard sour aroma, heavy acid sour taste, full body, sour finish. I finished it but it was tough.

Dec 31, 2008 Thanks to OldStyleCubFan for shairng. 06 bottle. The pour is a hazy bright gold with a thin fizzy white head. Still. The nose is tart, citrusy, lemongrass, dry, oaky, acidic, yeasty. The flavor is mildly tart, sour and acidic, lemongrass, barnyard flavors. The palate is a tad thin and acidic.

Dec 30, 2008 Bottle shared at the Carolina Crew tasting by OldStyleCubFan - thanks, Todd! Pours a darker orange than I expected, with faint champagne-like carbonation. Rich and tart nose. Taste is not super complex or acidic, and the finish is a touch thin. But it’s certainly a very high quality example of the style.

Dec 29, 2008 ’06 bottle generously shared by Todd. Funky sour nose. Lemony and earthy. Golden orange pour with small ring of head. Thin finish, but otherwise a very tasty gueuze.

Dec 29, 2008 Thanks to Todd for sharing this. Vintage 2006. Hazy gold pour with minimal head. Seemed almost flat. Very lively on the tongue. Big acidic aroma. Complex flavor. Apples, pears, leather, and must. Fine example of the style.
