Bottle at Sour and Bitter. It pours cloudy orange-amber, with a thick white head. The nose is very soft indeed - sweet banana, apple pie, pineapple, spice, floral (particularly chamomile) and a touch of tart lemon. The taste is tart lemon, white currant, green apple, white grape, pineapple, floral, a bit of farmyard and lingering alcohol warmth, with a pleasantly tart finish. So very well balanced, smooth, complex and with a touch more alcohol warmth than most gueuzes. Medium body, fine carbonation and velvety mouth-feel. A brilliant gueuze.

Bottle shared @ the Sour & Bitter event in Copenhagen. Pours hazy reddish golden with a huge frothy white head that slowly dissipates while leaving some thick lacing on the glass. Smell is sour with lemon juice, hay, funk, barnyard, grapefruit juice, leather, sweat, apples, horse blanket, plums and pleasant and suiting hints of oxidation. Taste is swour with apples, lemon juice, grapefruit juice, hay, leather, lemon zest, barnyard, grape zest, horse blanket and hints of oxidation. Mouthfeel is smooth, tart and medium to full bodied. Finish is sour and tart with lemon juice, orange peal, leather, apples and horse blanket. Amazing!

13/01/2012 Brasserie 4:20 (750ml bottle). Assaggiata con Federico e Edo, thanks Matt (50belair) for sharing! Ambrata carica, con punte arancia, lievemente torbida, schiuma bianca-gialla, abbondante e persistente. Naso spettacolare, esplosivo, lieviti, agrumato, pompelmo, limone, melograno, note legnose e lieve sentore di formaggio. In bocca è acida, agrumata, con note di limone, resina e frutti rossi, complessa e secca. Corpo medio, carbonazione corretta. Geuze di intensità straordinaria. Capolavoro irripetibile.

Bottle at home for my rating nr 3000. Bottle looks awesome. Beer in the glass very zippy, nice head. Sourish-old aroma. Starts intense sourish with lemon notes, not too aggressive. Fine prickly, sour apple notes. Finish well balanced with some grapefruit hints. Finish less sour than the beginning, fruity notes dominate. An outstanding beer!

Another insanely generous bottle shared by Destructo at his 3F vertical dinner. Clear golden yellow pour with a white head. A great nose highlighted by citrus and supple barnyard aromas. WOW, simply outstanding. Complex, tart, superbly balanced with citrus, floral, sour funk, and barnyard notes. This, in my opinion, is Geuze perfection.....
