Nov 5, 2009 Pours a hazy amber gold with a one finger crackling white head. Wonderfully tart and acidic nose, funky barnyard character, socks, grapefruit rind and lemongrass. Flavor is tart and vinous, citrusy, nice lemongrass character, acidic, mild oak, grapefruit rind. Tart tannic mouthfeel. Nice.

Oct 31, 2009 Bottle at Paul’s place for Kan’s visit. 2000 vintage. Pours a murky orange with a thin white head. Slight lemon, funk, hay, sweet acid. Huge acid, mouth puckering sourness. This is bracing and delicious.

Oct 31, 2009 Bottle.
The color was amber-like, however, a fairly light one. The foam was large, white and fluffy. Lovely aromas with a characteristic odor of Geuze. A lot of funk and lemon as well as wood and earth. Beautiful sour taste with the taste of lemon and apple was quite influential. Yeast and wood was there, too. Clearly, a refreshing and lättdrucken Gueze.
Argentine (9), Walla Walla, Washington, USA
does not count Oct 27, 2009 Aroma: Dusty leather, cedar sawdust, cigar box, antique books, very papery smelling... Windex and urinal cake arrive later. Taste: Bitterness, dryness and sourness all balanced. Sensation of bitting into a grapefruit peel, oak is strong yet tighly tucked in with esters and acids. 10 3 6 5 17

Oct 27, 2009 Bottle brought by emacgee, and poured into everyone else’s glass first, such that we had to then pour back some into generous Ethan’s own glass, selfish bastards that we are. This is a beer to be greedy about (or a beer to share with good friends... one in the same, right?). Pours hazy to cloudy yellow-orange, depending on how far down the bottle. Surprisingly lovely and prominent head. Funky barnyard, tart lemon and apple, oaky, white grapefruit in oodles. Lovely, lovely beer.

Oct 26, 2009 I can’t remember who shared this (Ethan?) but thanks much for the treat! Cloudy and rustic as hell pour, with all kinds of yeast and sedimental material contributing to a lively concoction. Fluffy white head, and a huge tart nose with funk cubed. Nicely full bodied, tons of wood and grapefruit, and a big sour apple kiss to finish things off. Top notch gueuze.
KM (218), Tromsø, Norway
Oct 21, 2009 Bottle. Yellow unclear body. Huge fluffy white head. Sourish aroma, a particular sweetness that is hard to describe. Very sour flavour, after a little while a strange maltiness. Long sour finish, like champagne. A litte too sour. (At home, 010709)
