Magic_dave6 (3975), London, Greater London, England Mar 31, 2008 Bottle thanks to mes, i havnt rated in a week i feel like a total amature here, however io am now sitting with the worst hangover ever(thanks to stone brewers getting me totally ruined on cask iipa) however this is rating 3000!!! I was soo taen back by this beer i didnt infact rate it by words. However it is possibly the most awsome gueuze ever only misses perfection by over carbonation.
Doppelganger (1197), Oxford, Oxfordshire, England Oct 4, 2008 Bottle with Craig, Stella, Fin, Loz and Traci, at the "What’s This Label Supposed To Be Anyway?" tasting. Thanks for sharing this one Fin!
Beautiful warm orange pour, nice white layer of perfectly uniform bubbles. Wheaty fresh grape aroma, dry sea air, green apricots. Huge aroma volume, just reaches out of the glass and tickles the nose. Dry barn board musk, orange zest. Peppery lemon sorbet flavor, spice and ocean. Gloriously good stuff. Fin (2344), Merton, Oxfordshire, England Sep 28, 2008 Tasting with Casey, Traci, Craig, Stella and Loz 27-09-08 this bottle brought along by Fin (cheers to myself) Pours very hazy light amber. The nose and mouth have plenty of prickly apricot, sour nectarine, and peach skin. This incredible sour fruitiness just ripples around the mouth forever bouyed by a lovely soft cabonation. Some damp flour, wheat (picked up by Casey) the edges are softened sightly which makes this so much more palatable to me than some of the very, very sour Gueze. Really marvellous beer. ironchefscott (243), long beach, California, USA Sep 23, 2008 Wow holy shit.....greatest nose of a sour I have ever smelled..super funk and balance...taste is the same....hot damn! miketd (372), Cleveland, Ohio, USA Sep 22, 2008 Had this on several occasions. Vibrant golden pour with a nice white head. Aroma is very complex and awesome. Too much going on to describe...flavor is the same. Yeasy, sour, funky, fruity and light spice. Awesome body and drinkability. JK (2479), Twin Cities, Minnesota, USA Sep 14, 2008 Huge thanks to Skyview for acquiring and sharing this gem. Opaque gold color and a tall white head. Heavily carbonated. Powerful aromas of yeast, barnyard horseblanket. Wild yeast. Earthy, dry, some cheese, very mild hops. Quite sour. Full palate and very full flavor. Probably one of the best beers ever made. One of my few 5.0 ratings. It is well deserved.
