1500mL bottle at LC member party, 1/17/25.
Clear brass-golden. Well carbonated.
Nose is very lambic-like. Fruity Brett, soft horse blanket, mild oak and tons of stone fruit. Lean malts with biscuity/nutty wheat. Clean presentation, very bright.
A bit less impressive in the flavor with more lactic acid than Brett and other random notes that are interesting but move the beer farther away from a true lambic. More American sour notes in flavor, I suppose youd say. Still, nothing to scoff at, and in excellent shape with great body, texture and good attenuation.
Great mellow gueuze with a bitter finish from the yeast
