| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 13, 2009 2005 bottle from Cantillon in Brussels. Just a straight-up awesome gueuze. Great appearance, bright golden with a creamy white head and excellent lacing. Nice funky tart aroma with green apple, lemon, and barnyard. Flavor is full and complex with malty sweetness to balance the tartness, lemony funk, sour apple, and wood. High carbonation, medium body, and a great effervescent mouthfeel. Overall this is top notch for the style. NomDeBeer (399), Maryland, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 28, 2009 Pours a hazy shade of apple cider with a respectable, creamy head. Aroma of apples, funk, straw and hay. Taste is the same plus lemon, lime, and a nice sour finish. Lingering, sticky finish and good lacing too. Smooth and complex, this is not the most aggresive gueuze but it is outstanding. JCB (1746), Durham, North Carolina, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 26, 2009 750ml from State Line - 2005 blend, bottled in 2007. Pours fairly big for the style, in all honesty, with a crackling carbonation topped by a surprisingly big head resting on top of the slightly murky pale orange body. Lovely aroma, with woody tartness, tons of dry yeast, and citrus rind. Nice mouthfeel, tangy and playful on the tongue. Deep, lasting funk everywhere in this beer - brine and cheese in the middle, bone dry lip-smackery in the finish, and held together by a solid refreshing squirt of tart fruit with every sip. Wonderful. Sonicdescent (376), Donora, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 13/20 | Sep 7, 2009 Looks good for the style, murky gold and thin white head. Scent is very sour with a light hint of funk. Taste is also subdued. Light apples , lemon, slight puckering sour in teh finish. Mouth is perfect, medium in body and high in carbonation.
