alaskanwarren (269), Edgewater, Colorado, USA Sep 10, 2007 Pours like an IPA. Smells like honey, malt and sour. Flavor delivers with much of the same. All in all, I enjoy a more tart lambic, as this doesn’t seem super adventurous.
BoBoChamp (269), Gent, Belgium Jul 21, 2008 25cl, from De Hopduvel Gent, easy to drink sweet gueuze, not complex, clear, small head, nothing special smith4498 (265), Miami, Florida, USA Jul 15, 2008 Pours hazy dark golden color with off white head. Aroma is slightly funky and has some sweetness. Flavor is much sweeter than I was expecting and tastes similar to the pomme although not as sweet. It doesn’t have that dry, earthy funkiness like the other gueuze I have tried. Overall I liked it, but it seemed more like a fruit lambic. LilBeerDoctor (300), East Setauket, New York, USA Jul 2, 2008 Bottle. Pours a light orange with a small white head. Aroma is surprisingly sweet, almost smells like the Framboise just a little less tart. Flavor has some slight oak barrel and gueuze-like notes but overall, it was very fruity and sweet. Sort of a combination of the pomme and framboise without the tartness. Not what I was expecting (this beer compares more to the fruit lambics than it’s cousin Cuvee Rene), but still quite tasty and enjoyable! lilannie (380), State College, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 29, 2008 Rating as Foudroyante Gueuze

FrankJohansen (2555), Sabro, Denmark Jun 29, 2008 Bottle. Hazy golden colour with a small white head. Aroma of sour fruits, taste of sour fruits with sugar. On the sweet side for a gueze.
