Panda courtesy of Theydon_Bois, cheers Colin! Golden colour, white foam head and aroma of bretty funk, sour fruit, citric rind. Taste is sour, funky, pale malt, biscuit, tart fruity, with citrus rind, some acidity and bitterness. Medium bodied, light carbonation, drying soured finish. Nicely drinkable.

Pours a clear, slightly darker blonde with a medium foam of medium low stability. Scent is very full and robust, mineral, tocuh smokey almost (oak char?), woody and brett. Taste is full, very brett and funk forward, but also woody. Medium acidity. Very dry. Citrussy acidity, which is a great balance towards all the more 'heavy' aroma's, it's lifting up the geuze to be a bit more fresh. Medium body with a high (slightly too high for me) carbonation. Overall, a pretty damn solid geuze - but (appart from the cool concept!) not going beyond that. For my personal taste slightly to dry as well - but than again some others will love it exactly because of this.

Nice funk, horse blanket, smooth, light sweetness and fruitiness. Taste is very smooth, has nice minerals. Nice one, maybe less prominent than Arthur, but also may be a bit more sophisticated.
