On tap at the source, Brussels. Handsome, vibrant look to the beer, a slightly cloudy and well carbonated pale orange. Nose is bright, citric, and has just a bit of sweetness to it. Playful mouthfeel, not overly acetic. Taste is pleasant and unemphatic, tart and crisp like a young apple, and it’s overall a pretty nice starter gueuze.

Jamedra (27) - CZECH REPUBLIC - MAY 12, 2013
Láhev 250 ml. Po nalití je znát aroma kyselých třešní. Pěna je bílé barvy s lehce hnědými odstíny, středně vysoká se středními až velkými bublinkami. Barva samotného piva je hnědá a čirá. Chuťově je pivo příjemně nakyslé s rychle ustupujícím jahodovým finišem nezanechává prakticky žádnou stopu po napití. Pivo je výborně pitelné a osvěžující.

Theydon_Bois (2957) - The ’Sham, Surrey, ENGLAND - MAY 6, 2013
Bottle on the 14.56 Brussels Midi - Saint Pancras from Carrefour at Midi, 29/04/13. Clear golden with a thin white head. Nose is light sour lemon tarte, touch of toffee, light vinegars, lemon rind, pinch of spice. Taste comprises lemon curd, sugars, toffee, candied sugars. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation, dry finish. Overall nowhere near enough sour/tarte in this one. Drinkable but too sweet. A Gueueze that assumes the classic ’W’ - well I never!

Skulle vilja ha lite mer funk, annars helt ok. Coolt att kunna köpa en geuze kl 22 på en söndag. Där ligger vi efter..

Majek (80) - Ząbki, POLAND - APR 22, 2013
UPDATED: MAY 16, 2013 Pours clear dark golden color with thin head (but with nice lacing). Aroma is medium intensive with lambic and fruity notes. Taste is sweet and sour with apple and cherry esters. High carbonation (but it?s typical for lambic). Surprisingly easy to drink. Really taste!

JulienHuxley (1708) - Trois-Rivieres, Quebec, CANADA - APR 14, 2013
375ml bottle. Clear dark gold pour with thin lacy white head. Honey, cereal dominated aroma, note the complete absence of any typical lambic funk/cheesy aromas. Flavors are disturbingly clean, no funk, earth, or wet hay to be found anywhere. Some cherry notes, slightly leafy and medicinal. More of a boring blond Belgian pale than anything I’d tag as a lambic. Drinkable, but tear-jerkingly bland.

Hugi (261) - Baden-Württemberg, GERMANY - MAR 30, 2013
Dark golden, clear, small white head. Sour smell, a bit of barnyard, but pleseant with a bit sweetness. Taste: A bit sour, but also sweet/caramel at the end a lot like cherries, maybe also citrus. medium body. Refreshing
