bottle. Poured clear copper with an off-white medium, lasting head with great lacing. Aroma is spicy and yeasty. Light mouthfeel. Very sweet and sour citrus-apricot flavour.

Bottle: Big white head on top of a clear yellow orange beer. Smell sweets, grains, fruit and a hint of yeast. Taste is more sweet than sour: grains, yeast, wheat, wood, yellow fruit, sweet and sugars. Aftertaste of grains and sweets. Medium carbo, soft tingly mouthfeel, medium body and a light watery texture. Not that sweet, still too sweet for a gueuze.

Hazy amber pour. Small head to just a light haze of lace. Light tart nose. Taste is big flat tart with a bunch of leather and a bit of farmhouse funk. Nice white wine pucker puller. Light tart and vinegar.

On tap at Capones. Pours a golden yellow with a medium white head. Aroma is of yeast, oak, fruits and vinegar. Taste is tart with earthy undertones, finishes sweet and sharp. Light mouthfeel.

37.5 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with a dense off-white head. Aroma is barnyard and light sweet. Flavour starts sweet and gains some caramel note into the finish. Ends caramel malty with a little sweetness.

Bottle. Amber colour. Small well lasting white ehad. Fair lacing. Sweetish yeasty sour aroma. Sweet, soft, yeasty, fruity sour flavour.

Draft at Capones. Pours a hazy amber body with a white head. Frunky citrus, peach and some dry vinous wood. Brett and a dry finish. Maybe its better on draft.
