Corked bottle. Golden color. Oak, apple, vinous notes, graoefruit and a hint of bitter walnuts in the complex aroma. Dry, sour, oaky flavor. Grapefruit, honey, gooseberries. Short aftertaste. Very nice geuze.

Poured from a 375 ml bottle. Aroma is subtle with lemon and grape notes followed by a light peppery, herbal note and faint musty notes. light oak. Pours a rather clear, gold color with a large, thick pillowy, white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers. Light lacing and no legs. Flavor is similar to the Oud Beersel foeder blends they have bottled recently. A bit on the sweet side with a light, well rounded and soft acidity. Light grain notes. This one is a bit more bitter - medium light. Medium light oak notes with some lemon and red grape notes. Hints of pineapple, musty, earthy notes and a light floral, herbal note in the finish. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with high carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, another decent geuze, but nothing I would spend anytime chasing. Again, I wish this was a bit less carbonated so i could lay a couple down to see how they age.

Bouteille: Golden, hazy, stable and creamy foamy layer, visible carbonation, mild musty-cellary, but mainly fresh and crisp grapefruity-lemony nose, including a shy vinous touch; moderate to solid sourish flavour, accompanied by a little bitterness, astonishingly quite full bodied and both soft and fizzy; increasing traces of grapefruits and lemons in the lingering sour and bitter finish. Chapeau! A masterpiece with perfect deniability...

Moderately tart. Dry and earthy, thick palate for the style. Great beer.
