Although it’s a bit Champale-like in taste, body and appearance, it’s still a refreshing change from the usual beer. It’s just not up to snuff: it’s too thin, too sweet and too simplistic. Loses points for the metallic notes.

Tasted in Toronto. Obtained from LCBO. Tasted in Corsendonk flute. Appearance is amber/yellow, clear with a sustained head. Aroma is on the sweeter side, not cidery or acidic as I would expect with a Gueuze. Flavour is a bit off balance with fairly intense sweetness considering the style.

First gueze for me. Very beautiful pour. tight stark white head with a deep gold colour. For me that was the best part though. Aroma and flavour is made up of wheat, coriander, cloves, a little ginger, with a mild sweetness. Cheers!

Green apples are lightly tart and contrast with citrus and wheat aromas and a mild lambic character. Clear deep copper coloured body is topped by a decent, fine bubbled white head that recedes to a thin but lasting cover with plenty of lacing. Candylike sweetness undercuts the tart green apple flavour with a mildly musty herbal finish. Some notes of pears and peaches are apparent especially in the aftertaste. Light body with strong, sharp, pointy carbonation that prickles the tongue. Snifter. Just above fridge temperature. Bottle (Bièropholie, Nov-05).

Geueze? Well I guess this is like a macro-version of many other types of beer - made for the masses. It has some pleasant refreshing qualitites but it certainly doesn’t slap you with the assertive sour notes that I love so much. Malty and bubbly, apple cider aromas and grassiness. Overall it was drinkable but not nearly truly geueze-like for me.
