(Draft at Akkurat, Stockholm, 4 Oct 2025) Pale amber colour, hazy, with brief head. Fruity nose with notes of citrus, barnyard, bretty yeast, horse stable, grapes and oak wood. Fruity, tart taste with citrus, gooseberries, oak wood, barnyard, funky yeast and a generous acidity in the finish. No bitterness. Medium body, dry. Fresh and tart with lots of character. Very nice.

2022 bottling. Medium gold, nice carb but very short lived head. Sour acidic nose with medium complexity and a hint of rubber. Flavor has some stone fruit, big acidity, mild tire fire notes, very high carb. Some Brett funkiness and woody notes as well. Pretty nice!

Aromas are malt, brett, cloves, honey and a hint of caramel. Flavors are similar to nose, moderately tart and dry with the barest hint of fruity sweet in back. Decent body and carbonation. Finish follows flavors.

Bottle from Drankenspeciaalzaak Jelle, Leeuwarden. Aroma is grainy and funky with notes of apple, wood, barnyard, fruits. Nice tartness and sourness, lightly sweet, bit dry. Medium body. Nice 'basic' Geuze-light, entry-level, certainly very enjoyable.
