Clear golden and copper coloured body with a thinnish tan head, only about a half centimetre tall. Aroma of sour grapes, funk, yeast, gueuze, lemons and a hint of alcohol coupled with light malt as well. Light-bodied; Assertive effervescence; Strong sour quality up front of pure gueuze along with a sour grape and cherry flavour and finishing with a good deal of unfinished fruit-based sugars and a touch of syrup. Aftertaste is rich and sour, tart, funky, bright and definitely mouth-watering. Overall, this is MUCH better than expected - after reading these reviews, I was expecting this to be ho-hum, but it turned out to be a very nice beer - complex and sour, funky and bright, and definitely hiding about 5% of the abv - this feels like around 5%, so at 10%, i’m very surprised. Definitely worth sampling/buying if you can find it, and even though I only kept mine for a bit over a year, this would probably do well in the bottle; However, mine was just starting to bubble over as soon as the cap was removed, so maybe not 5+ years for this one. I sampled this stubby (it is from Belgium) 33 cL bottle purchased from Bier Tempel in Bruxelles, Belgium on 18-January-2015 for €3,00 sampled at home in Washington on 08-March-2016. Lot #726 (on cap), with ’MEI 2016’ listed as well (not sure what that means) Rating for the first Sample: 9,3,94,17 Second Sample: Super clear amber and copper coloured body with a bit of a glow towards the bottom, all with a nice, two to three centimetre tall off-white head. Aroma of sour funk, bread, yeast and a big dose of malts, along with a touch of alcohol warmth. Medium-bodied; Nice light spice flavour with some noticeable funk throughout along with a dose of grain and a little sour and fruity sweetness towards the end. Aftertaste shows the mellow funk along with some light sweetness and grain, but the sour, tart and assertive yeast qualities here come out and shine at the very end. Overall, a very nicely-balanced sour and pungent beer that has a great sour and vinegar-y kick at first but amazing malt and grain finish that makes this nice throughout and worthy of a nice review. I sampled this stubby 33 cL bottle purchased from Bier Tempel in Bruxelles, Belgium on 18-January-2015 puchased just a few days after my youngest daughter was born, sampled again right before my son was born, after running the USMC Marathon 2017 on 22-October-2017 for the seventh time. Rating for this sample: 8,3,8,4,16
