| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Apr 1, 2009 2004 bottle. Hazy golden-orange with a quite large white head. Aroma of barnyard, some vinegar notes, a bit of pineapple and some candy-ish sweet hints. Sharp sour flavor with oak and fruits that finishes with lemon peels and light astringency. Silky mouthfeel with soft carbonation. A great Gueuze. CaryTheDude (1113), Longmont, Colorado, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Mar 19, 2009 Crushed with Jakebra. One hell of a sour, sweaty, leathery nose. Flavor is just as good. Really fucking good. One of the best gueuzes I’ve been privy to. Excellent. theisti (1689), Leawood, Kansas, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Mar 10, 2009 750 ml capped and corked bottle courtesy of eaglefan538. Gueuze 2005 labeled on the bottle, bottled in 2007 stamped on cork. Pour is hazed golden orange with loose foam bubbles forming a smallish 1/2 inch white head that falls fairly fast. Soft carbonation and sediment floats beautifully in the glass. Very pretty. Aroma of soft sour funk, grassy lemon and mineral earthiness. Taste is tart sour lemon, oak, and the mineral earthiness from the nose. The citrus sour is really nicely integrated into the flavor, really not sharp - certainly does not jump out. More of a tingle on the tongue, certainly not puckering. Palate is flat, lighter and pretty slick. Finish is very brief for the style. Lighter body made this very easy drinking and refreshing. Thanks for sending this to me Brian. scrizzz (1326), kirkland, Washington, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 23, 2009 2003 vintage. Effervescent gold, sustained head. Lots of lemon and young oak on the nose. Light bodied, oily lemon rind, dried birch finish. Ends quickly, yet still satisfying. piscator34 (1134), Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 22, 2009 Bottled sample, 2005 vintage. Medium to deep gold in colour with spritzy carbonation. Aromas are dominated by lemon and dried wood, with backing character of piquant herbs and sour peach. A bit fuller in the body than other gueuzes I’ve had, but still bone dry and refreshing. Citric notes dominate the palate, along with more wood. Not overly funky or lactic. Very classy stuff. michael-pollack (2731), King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 20, 2009 750ml Bottle (2004 Vintage): Aroma of tart fruit, citric acid, light wood, and slight fruit. Poured amber/orange in color with a tiny white head that lasted throughout. Cloudy. Sparkling. Flavor is medium tart. Tastes of tart fruit, oak, light citrus, citric acid, and slight grapefruit. Light to medium body. Thin texture. Average carbonation. Tart, thin finish. A bit of a disappointment after just having the Cantillon Iris. joekinty (263), rockledge, Florida, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 16, 2009 Apparence orangé brumeuse avec un mince collet blanc qui se dissout rapidement. Aromes de rhubarbe, vinaigre balsamique, pomme surette, pamplemousse et cave humide. Typique d’un lambic mais une sensation un peu differente. Début acid intense qui se marie rapidement a un melange de sucré et une finition tout en douceur. Bonne aigreur qui derange moin.
