St. Louis Gueuze

Tasted a long time ago, pre ratebeer, so to be fair I’ve marked it as bang in the middle. My notes just tell me it was "An okay gueuze" says it all really!!!!

Bottle. Amber colour with an off-white head. Aroma and flavour of fruit and sugar.

250ml bottle
Horse-blanket aroma. Quite watery. Gentle taste, very musty and sweaty. Not acidic enough.

Bottle, May 2008. This has a gueuze-like floral aroma. Amber with a fairly permanent head and sweet, sugary flavour with apricot, and very little sourness.

33CL bottle, bought at supermarket in IJmuiden. For me this beer is to sweet. To much sugar.

375ml bottle.
Light amber brown with an off white head. Fruity, syrupy and sour aroma. Similar flavour. Sour, syrupy plum and strawberry. Medium carbonation. Enjoyable beer.

Huge, very dense dirty-yellow head over copper-coloured beer, very well-carbonated visibly. Caramel(syrup), wood, Brett (horseblanket even), fruity esters (peach). Neutral, rather than sweet (or sour, God forbid); woody, plywood, slightly solvent, old hops (slightly cheesy). Brett gone to the ... - there’s some lemon flavour, unsure of itself. Syrupy maltiness, caramel underneath. Very spritzy, highly carbonated; sticky, syrupy presence, false body. An old acquaintance, still as unconvincing as ever.

Oh man, I avoided buying this beer for the longest time because I was pretty sure it was a waste of 4 dollars. And I was right. Pours a deep golden colour with a thin white lightly sticky head. The aroma is some weird funkiness, some metallic notes, and something very sweet. The flavour is pretty funky aswell, some bruised apple, some off sourness, and a butt load of sugar. Very syrupy mouthfeel, most likely from all the sugar. A pretty nasty beer all and all.
