75 cl capped and corked bottle shared by mreusch. 6 - 9 - 2003 on label. Pour is a gusher, hazed orange copper with a big foamy 4 inch white head that falls fast with splotchy lacing. Aroma is soft barnyard, plastic, acetic lemon citrus, and some earthiness. Taste is the bright lemon citrus, vinegar, and the same plastic of the nose. The finish is lingering with the vinegar. Palate is active carbonation, light bodied, with a plastic mineral aftertaste. Nice, thanks for sharing this one Matt.

Sampled from the bottle at the 2010 February Circle City Tasting thanks to sprinkle. Poured a hazy gold with a medium white head. Aroma was full of funky barnyard and horse blanket notes with just a slight hint of underlying tartness. Flavor had a much more tart and sour flavor with a slightly earthy and barnyard undertone.

Bottle courtesy of Brad at the first DC tasting of 2010 - thanks Brad! Slightly cloudy straw colored with a large white fizzy head that clears quickly to reveal nice lacing. Amazing carbonation for a 6+ year old brew. Aroma of sour grapefruit, pepper, and moderate funk. Flavor is musty, citrusy, dry and acidic. Highly complex, and has the best body of any 3F I’ve tasted. Superb.

750ml bottle sampled at the DC Local tasting. Thanks to Brad for bringing this to the tasting. Pours a hazy, yellow orange with a frothy, lacing, white head. The nose is really superb: grassy, cheesy, almost like a pungent goat’s cheese, hay, earthy, tart, musty, white pepper. Very heavy carbonation hits you in the mouth. Flavor is a little zippy, citrus fruits, lemons, white pepper, hay, grass, white grapes, a little horsey, celery. Finish is very dry but also nice. Super nice, delicate but also complex. Very drinkable.

Bottle@home. The bottle looks really great, the beer in the glass also. Starts complex-sourish with woody notes, not too intense. Strong, modest dry in the background. Sourish taste turns almost spicy in the finish. Very well balanced, great warming aftertaste. A masterpiece!

Bottle, 6.5%. Well-balanced fruity and dry aroma, grapefruity and refreshing. Like dry wood with a little acid. Cloudy orange colour. Very big stable white head. The flavour is much of the same with the fruit, grapefruity and dry wood, only with more acid, so it is even more refreshing. I had high expectations for this one, and I was not disappointed. Very balanced and drinkable. I could drink this for a long time and not get tired of it.

Tasting with Casey, Traci, Craig, Stella and Loz 27-09-08 this bottle brought along by Fin (cheers to myself) Pours very hazy light amber. The nose and mouth have plenty of prickly apricot, sour nectarine, and peach skin. This incredible sour fruitiness just ripples around the mouth forever bouyed by a lovely soft cabonation. Some damp flour, wheat (picked up by Casey) the edges are softened sightly which makes this so much more palatable to me than some of the very, very sour Gueze. Really marvellous beer.
