Lindemans Gueuze

A clear orange beer with a nice white head, from a quite high carbonation, but the bottle has aged for some years. The aroma is nicely sour with notes of wood, oranges, and some berries. The flavor is quite sour at first, but then somehow gets a stint of sweetness with notes of oranges, wood, and mold, before the acidity gains in power again towards the end with notes of metal and vinegar. Nice one - thanks to Jesper from Brygshoppen.dk for supplying me with this one.

Sampled draught at Akkurat, Stockholm. (5.0%)
pale amber, clear, near no head.Arpma of apples and crystalized sugar. Sweet and juicy, still with soft mouthfeel and some depth. There is just over a hint of citric acidity. Fresh, and in good condition like this a highly refreshing drink. You can tell that somewhere under the sweetness this is actually based on quality lambic.

(Bottle 25 cl) Comes as "’s Lands Souvenirs du Terroir Gueuze de Bruxelles". The label says 4% ABV. Dark golden, almost amber. Filtered, but yet it appears slightly hazy. Small, light, creamy head. A "commercial" (=sweetened) gueuze, which makes up for some of the sourness. But still sharp and acidic. And still unique. 200802 As: "Gueuze Foudroyante" for the French market: 6/3/6/3/12=12 141002 As: "Lindemans Gueuze at 5% ABV: 6/3/6/3/12=3 171297
