This gueuze is obtained by mixing ('versnijden'), young and old lambiek. It achieves a beautiful balance between sweet, sour and slightly bitter, which makes it an ideal thirst quencher on hot and humid summer days. It is only mildly sour with touches of citrus, strawberry and caramelised grains.

Bottle at home as Premium Gueuze. Hazy grey-golden with small off white head, looks like swamp water. Some hay, apple, whisky on the nose, moldy bread, brown sugar, brown bread, pee, sour vegetables. Light sweet with soft bitter finish. Bit below medium bodied with light champagne-like carbonation. Has some good notes but the pee and vegetables make this more on the nasty side of things. still drinkable though.

Pours a darker golden with some lazy bubbles, small amount of white head that sheets. Nose of syrup and socks with a nice sour sharpness to it. The taste however only has a mild sour that limits itself more to funk than fruits like sour apple or grapes, with heavy a syrup character that mostly flattens out the funk. Not a lot of complexity here. It’s feels like the Bud of Gueuze, but it’s still a Gueuze so it’s not bad.

Very dark orange. nice clarity. 1 finger head of big bubbles and sticks around fading slowly. has a slight apple, pear and copper penny aroma. Lots of sugar, actually a nice mouthfeel, a bit of apple, some tartness but overall just not a great beer.

Pours a slightly hazy, light brown color, topped with a small white head, quickly settling to only a circle around the edge. A mild, sweet and fruity aroma, pear notes. The taste is slightly sweet and fruity, but mostly soury, not too much or unpleasant, a nice cidery feel. Like it, very nice and drinkable.

(tap 0,3l @ OP (Brno))
Aroma : Sweet, apple, light sour.
Appearance : Clear dark golden color. Minimal white head.
Taste : Medium sweet, medium sour, apple cider, some fruits.
Palate : Medium body. Sticky texture. Dry finish.
Overall : Nice, interesting. Maybe not so sour for Gueuze, but that’s kind of ’sour beer’ for me.

One of those very few Western Flemish attempts at imitating the lambic beer types from the Senne valley, in this case an artificial, sweet, quite bland ’capsulekensgeuze’ with low lambic tartness and even lower funkiness. Totally redundant, like most beers in this range.
