Jun 2, 2009 Bottle. Aroma has leather and musky yeast, citrus, and funk. Hazy medium orange hue with an average sized off-white foamy head that mostly diminished and left great lace. Flavor is sour, sweet and finishes tart and fresh. Palate is medium bodied and lively. Very good and very sour but not too acidic. Lovely.

May 29, 2009 375ml bottle corked and caged courtesy of fishingnet. Corked was a bit wedged in there, so I ended up using the corkscrew to get it out. Pours a clear deep golden color with a slight orange hue to it. Thin but lasting white head that forms a nice ring around the edge of my glass. Nose is lemon, apple, vinegar, wood, with wet funky barnyard characteristics and on the dry side. Taste is similar, tart and funky with some dry woody notes on the end and maybe a bit medicinal but not in a bad way. Feels great on the tongue with well balanced carbonation and body. I have shared a bottle of this one before in the past, but this is the first time that I have had a bottle to enjoy from start to finish. Must buy some more of this fore sure. Thanks Ben!

May 28, 2009 This may be my first "sour" experience that I’ve actually enjoyed. Very tart & citrusy with a huge pungent aroma. Pours a cloudy copper with a quickly settling head. Some apple/citrus in the nose. Full mouthfeel that bites very hard at the edge and back. Leaves a pleasant coating on the front of yer teeth. Not so strong as to immediately turn ya off, though. Very, very interesting.

May 24, 2009 Bottle Pours out a hazy orange topped with a small white head. Aroma sourness, wood, and some sour apple. Tast of tons tart and sour. Lots of pucker. A tast one.

May 22, 2009 Orange-gold pour with a big, rocky, white head. Loads of sour funk in the aroma with some hints of chardonnay, oak, green apple, lemon zest, grass, grain, leather, and a little sweetness that i can’t quite describe. The acidity and sourness immediately hits the tongue first but then cherry, strawberry, and lemon hints start to develop. The malt flavors are grassy, dry grains. Again the flavor has a little sweetness to it that I’m not sure how to describe. Medium body with lots of carbonation that finishes very dry and clean. This is definitely a well crafted gueuze and the complexity and quality reflect that.
