 malrubius (969), Valley Stream, New York, USA
May 24, 2007 Bottle in pint glass. Pours slight hazy orange with small white head that leaves a lasting ring and no lacing. Aroma of hay, lemons, and sweat. Very tart starting flavor of old lemons and (what I believe to be ) horseblanket. Very dry finish that leaves tartness in the throat. Medium high carbonation. Extremely complex, refreshing, and an excellent example of the style. Wow.

May 17, 2007 Updated: Jun 16, 2008Bottle. 09/05. Pours hazy orange. Small creamy white head. Interesting aroma: funk, sour, sulphur, bleu cheese, musty attic, wet hay, fruit beginning to rot (these are all good aromas). Quite firm on the palate. Bracingly sour and yeasty flavor. Finishes incredibly dry.

May 14, 2007 Is not sulphur and rubber like other "gueuze" beer, but is fruity like drinking Belgium beer with apples. I will drinking many bottles in Belgium beer tour but is also not trappist. Not sugar beer again and there are no hops.

May 14, 2007 Nice copper color with a lemony-sour flavor. Faintly musty and barny, and the tartness is controlled, making this a complex but relatively melow and drinkable oude gueuze. Certainly refreshing, and a heavenly combo with my escaveche.

May 13, 2007 Bottle @ Brugs Beertje, Brugge. One finger off-white head over a hazy light golden body. Nice, fresh acidic/tart citrus to the nose. Notes of wood (oak?), cellar and earth. Taste is fruity with a highly refreshing sourness. Lingering tart and fruity finish. Nice and very quenching.
