Nov 23, 2006 Wow how do I describe the tart. Pours a dark yelloe orange. Nice big head that fizzzez away but leaves a nice lacing. The smell is herball, lemony, and citrous peel. The taste is some what woody, sour plum, grapefruit, champagne similarity, but not as dry. The complexity of this beer is new for me reminds me of the saisin stlye whic I didn’t like mipuch at first, and now I do. This is my first of this stlye but will try more of these.

Nov 19, 2006 375 ml bottle at the Map Room. Hazy golden colour with a fully lasting fizzy and frothy off-white head. Chessy, yeasty, tart, cobweb, horseblanket, and barnyard aroma. Complex combination of sour and tart yields to brie, other soft cheeses and yeast flavours. Very dry and refreshing mouthfeel. Great beer, but somehow I expected more.

Nov 19, 2006 Amber body with a biiig head. Tarty and cheesy aroma. Amazing tartiness, cheezy hops and grassy body. Finishes with acid and much hay.

Nov 15, 2006 Wow. So sour. I love it. Smells like raisins, fresh bread and rotten sour apples?!? (in a good way) Lots of sour fruit taste. Some biscuit. Lovely.

Nov 14, 2006 From the bottle pours amber/gold, very clear, with a white head. Sourness was very subtle compared to many of the gueuze i’ve had. Lots of great wild funk, dry straw, must, tart fruits. Sourness and acidity didn’t try to take away anything from this beer, actually very crisp and refreshing.

Nov 14, 2006 Bottle at Horsens Beerfestival. This is on h.... of an geuzeresque geuze. Huge levels of dried fruits and acid. Carbonationlevel like champagne and a finish lasting the rest of the evening. Dry, dry and dry. As beautiful as it is impossible to finish off yourself. Perfect New Years Eve brew.

Nov 11, 2006 Tarty aroma, candy apples, floral and gras notes. Acidic and tarty taste, with hints of malts, incredible citrus and orange. Classic and classy, this is very refreshing. Perhaps the most easy to drink gueuze considering the tartyness I´ve tasted so far. Outhouse, hey and grass, a world class lambic!

Nov 7, 2006 Oh yeah, that’s what I’m talkin’ about. Found a bottle of this stuff that must’ve been years old on a shelf in NYC, that wasn’t there a week before. Chances our they found a few lying around the back, likely that had been left upside-down considering the cork and neck were dripping with yeast. This one had the biggest cork pop of any beer I’ve ever had, firing the cork far across the room. Pours with a huge head that laces beautifully. Aroma is fabulous... richly oaky and sour, cherries, vanilla, sage, spruce, hay... absolutely intoxicating. Flavor is rich and more sour, pungent and toxic sour apple, barnyard, slight oak. A little thin on the palate is my only real complaint about this beer. The sourness is soft but prevalent, and the oak notes are outstanding. World class!
