0.33 l can from 'Etre Gourmet', best before October 2026. Hazy, golden orange with a thin, slightly fluffy, slowly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, sourish, quite fruity and gently funky aroma of overripe lemon, grapefruit, apple, some horse blanket and a touch of white pepper. Slightly sweetish, quite sour, rather fruity and gently funky taste of overripe lemon, rhubarb, grapefruit, apple, some horse blanket and hints of white pepper, followed by a short, quite tart, gently woody-dry finish. Almost medium-bodied, fairly astringent and gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Very refreshing, but also more acidic than the more refined Gueuzes from Tilquin.

Pours unclear blonde amber. Small white head. Scent is pretty brett forward, rather sharp. Taste is dry, but not overly so. Brett focussed, medium acidity. Not the most complex one. Bit of acetic in the late finish. Feels a bit simple, somehow. Not bad though.
gave a cheers!

First Gueuze in can. Color: Hazy golden, fast diminishing white head. Aroma: A lot of stable-like funk, some fruity tartness. Taste: Over moderate to medium tartness, astringent mouthfeel, a lot of stable-like funk, fruity gooseberry, oak wood and some hay and minerals. Nice, easy drinkable, refreshing Gueuze but lacking some complexity compared with 'the real thing'.
