Little head. Amber coloring. The aroma has the smell similar to a white wine. The flavor has an extremely tart white grape taste.

750 mL bottle. Lets start by saying I have no experience with this style but wanted to give it a shot. Cloudy golden green pour with a nice thick fizzy white head. Aroma of barnyard and socks. Taste is just overwhelmingly sour with that familiar barnyard funk and citrus. Dry finish. Not for me.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.
