Bottle from Burg Bieren, Ermelo. Aroma is funky with oak, grains, apples, citrus, notes of white grapes and stone fruits. Flavour is medium sour with a hint of sweetness and a fairly dry conclusion. Medium body. Very good, though I seemed to like the original 108 a bit better even.

Bottle from Drankenspeciaalzaak Jelle, Leeuwarden. Aroma is fruity with barnyard funk, citrus, notes of wine, oak, grapes, soft lemon, and grain. Flavour is tart and a bit sweet with a long medium to heavy sourness and a dry-ish finish. Body is medium. Very fruity and sour with oak, lovely complexity and flavour. Damn Boon, so goddamn good!

Bottled (as 108bis). Hazy orange colour, small white head. Aroma is leathery, some floral and mild wooden and tartish tones to it. Flavour is tart wooden, some berries and mild earthy tones. Nicely dry and tart, in an elegant way. Still a bit sharp on the carbonation.

Aroma of rowanberries, oak, apple cider vinegar, stable, ros� pepper, lemon, apricots and heather. Flavour of apple cider vinegar, lemon, heather, rowanberries, oak and weeds. Has a slick mouth feel, medium body and a soft bitterness. Solid geuze and is pretty complex in both aroma and flavour.

Bottle, 375ml corked, at Jæren Ølfestival pre-tasting. As Oude Geuze VAT 108bis. A dense white head forms over a slightly hazy golden colored body. Curtains. Very smooth aroma, funky, lemony, leathery and barnyard-ish, with a faint bready maltyness. It’s medium to full-bodied, tart and acidic, with a leathery, lemony and funky flavor. Some biscuity malts, with a lasting funky, sour finish. Perhaps a bit straight forward this one, but really nice indeed. 220812

Bottle, 375ml corked. A mostly clear one, golden in color and with a small white head. Some lacing. The aroma has a sweetish touch, with leathery, barnyard-ish funk, lemon and a touch of alcohol. It's full-bodied, dry and nicely carbonated, with a tart, lemony sourness. Flowers, lemon, barnyard and leather, hay and some grass in the flavor, lasting for a good while. A bit sweet this one, but sure refreshing and pleasant. 190906
