Bottled. A slightly hazy dark golden beer with a huge lazing tan head. The aroma has notes of horseblanket, brettanomyces, grapefruits, and malt. The flavor is sweet and acidic with notes of brettanomyces, grapefruits, malt, dusty hops, horseblanket, and wood, leading to a tart finish.

Bottle @ Too many Geuze’s - only one toilet , Ulfborg 2012 - Day 1. The final beer of a legendary tasting. The best I’ve ever been (and probably ever will be) part of. Thank you J&C for organizing this. Hazy golden/orange, with a tiny white head. More sour than the Roze, and definitely more "manly", there are no flower notes like Roze, just the typical geuze characteristics, of the finest type though. Lemon and grapefruit, fruity, nice malt base, vinegar, barnyard, cellar, wet wood, such a complexity packed in a perfectly balanced beer. And what a perfect beer to finish the night with. A night to remember for sure: http://www.flickr.com/photos/aserezis/sets/72157629118513251/

Bottle thanks to MaltoMeal and shared for his 1000th rating at the May tasting Pours a cloudy orange with a small off white head that diminishes quickly. The aroma is fruit and ester and floral. Sour fruit flavor with citrus and a nice lingering tart finish. Really enjoyed this impressive Gueuze from 3 Fonteinen.

Corked bottle, from De Hereen Van Liedeckerke
Hazy light amber color; higher carbonation than the Roze; big frothy head. The aroma is more elegant than the Roze, and without the cork touch; there is some lemony sourness, a bit dusty, light cheese and apples; still pungent in the end. The body shows more carbonation, but it has a good structure, more balanced and less astringent than the Roze; good soft tannins, pleasant and not overwhelming cellar character, high acidic touch, a bit lemony; it ends with some astringency. The only thing I would like to change here is the carbonation: excessive.
Wonderful, more subtle and elegant than the Roze.

Frischer saurer Antrunk mit dezenten, wenig wichtig erscheinenden Hopfennoten. Die Säure bleibt konstant, nachdem sie sich im Mittelteil steigert, sie ist vollmundig und passt in der Intensität absolut in das Bild des Bieres. Die Säure ist zudem absolut weich und gut verträglich, das Bier süffig und gleichzeitig komplex aromatisch. Wie in der Intensität im Mittelteil gleitet das Bier sanft aus, in der abschließenden wenig kräuteratigen Säuerlichkeit wirkt die Holznote passend. 12/13/12/13/12/13

Bottle shared with Mes at DHL. Pours an unclear, rich gold with a fizzy, strong white head. Crazy sour nose, lots of grass. Very sour flavor with loads of grass, wood, etc. Light to medium in body with lively carbonation. Dry, teeth-cleaning finish, plenty sour. Great stuff. (I didn’t focus too hard on rating this beer as I was enjoying one of the best meals of my life simultaneously.) (4.6)
Bottle at THE Sour and Saison Tasting, London. Huge thanks to Jack for procuring this lovely beer. Pours hazy brown-gold with a lively, off-white head. Aroma holds a bit of leather with sturdy funk and some lightly toasted grass. Flavor is lightly sweet with leathery funk and strong, bitter grass character. Light bodied with average, creamy carbonation. Moderate dryness to finish with good funk, light sourness, along with strong grassy bitterness and further notes of mellow leather. Still a very nice beer, although it’s quite clear that this beer has peaked and is now on the decline. (4.2)
