Dec 24, 2009 Bottle: Poured a marble colored yellow and light brown mix, there was a faint whisper of white head across the top. The aroma was a mix of old musty barnyard, overly boiled eggs, and yeast. The flavor was a mixed bag of old malts, yeast, and puckering sourness. Not a unpleasant lambic for a style I hardly like.

Dec 22, 2009 Pours a deep cloudy golden color. Aroma is sourish, musty, yeasty. It has lively carbonation. Flavor is a sour vinegar like taste with some light creaminess and a hint of sweet. Can really taste the funk in this one.

Dec 8, 2009 Baby champagne bottle. Corked and caged. Courtesy of Shyam. Pours a super deep super hazy orange with a one-finger, very rocky, off-white head. Beautiful. Aroma is chardonnay, curacao, lime juice, grapefruit juice, some spice, lemon tart, key lime pie. There is some sweat, leather, barnyard in there. Taste is sour, tart, acidic, white wine. Huge sour warheads. Dry aftertaste with some sort of semi-quenching character that insists upon you to try more. Bubbly, spritzy on the palate. The thing I hate about gueuze is that it takes so much time, effort, and precision to create them but about three seconds to drink them. This is excellent. Not as intense as Girardin Black Label, but still awesome.

Dec 2, 2009 Ok this is a special moment. My new favourite geuze. WOW. Fascinating aroma of citrus hops; tangy lemon and a bitter orange peel. Taste is mesmerising. A very bitter dry finish product but the opening is a sensitve and bubbly smooth mix before it explodes around your taste buds. A truely remarkable beer and one I would love to have aged. This is the Gueze secret along with Girardin. WOW.

Nov 22, 2009 Bottle, 37,5 cl. Blonde, golden beer with huge white, creamy, light unstable head. Light sour and fruity smell. Taste is light sour with an enjoyable natural sweet taste on the background, making this a more mild Oude Geuze’. Although also a good ’Oude Geuze’ lacking a bit in pallet and complexity. to compete with the top of ’Oude Geuzes’. (Note: also nice when mixed with a Oude Geuze Girardin Black Label :)).
