3 Fonteinen J & J Oude Geuze Roze

Bottle bought at De Heeren van Liedekercke, bottled in 2003. Hazy golden with a fine with head. Sour lemons and woody aromas. A fantastic blend of wood, talc, lemony lambik flavours that is bone dry all the way. Long oaky aftertaste. Medium body and quite sparkling. Amazing.

Thanks to Miketd and Hopdog for sharing these with me in the last few weeks. Pours a hazy orange- and perhaps just a half shade darker than the blauw- light fizzy carbonaiton and a thin dissipating head. Aroma has a typical Drei Fonteinen funk to it, wth its usual old woodiness, but this one seems way more woody than any other gueze I have had- not oaky or vanilla, just a harsh astringent (yet pleasant) woodiness. Super acidic and sour flavor with tons of wood, bretty as hell- with some wild earthiness going on- farmhouse, horsey, herbal and a light vegetable character blends with the wood- malic acid- apple skins, and some rhubarb. Acidity in the end isnt quite as powerful as the Blauw, but after having this the second time I was liking it way more than the first time. Nice to compare the 2.

Thanks to Miketd for sharing. Poured a hazy orange-amber color with a minimal head. Mildy tart aroma with some nice leathery funky notes. The flavor was tart and drys out with a citrus base to it. Mildly bitter finish with a light to medium body. Pretty tasty.

Poured a hazy golden color with a small white head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of brett, citrus fruits, some leather, green apple, tropical fruits, and a musty cellar. Taste of brett, lemon peel, citrus fruits, more green apple all fused together with the gueuze backbone. A very soft, and well put together lambic here, thanks to Steve for sharing these!

An old rating i finally got to entering. Poured a orange yellow color with not much of a head at all . Aroma was real sour overall. Really tart. Left a bitter taste that was sour on the tongue. Barnyard taste with a weird bitter taste that tingled the tongue. Very nice beer.
