Bottled. A red-brown beer with a lazing tan head. The aroma has notes of bread, caramel, malt, and a bit of wood. The flavor is sweet with notes of brettanomyces, wood, caramel, malt, and lemons, leading to a dry and tart finish.

33 cl bottle. Pours cloudy brown with a fully gone head. Aroma is wineous and caramelish. Spirit alcohol note. Sweet fruity malty. Caramelish. Smooth fruity. Thick malty and toasted caramelish. Mild citric note. Fruity finish.

[10/7/13] Draught at Delirium Hoppy Loft in Brussels. Amber-colored with a creamy off-white head. Aroma of resinous and piney hops, some caramelly malt and a bit of fruitiness. Flavor starts sweetish, malty and caramelly, continues hoppy, piney and bitter, a bit alcoholic in the finish. Medium-bodied.

Draft @ Hoppy Loft, tks Max. Couleur ambrée-orangée, col fin blanc cassé. Le bouquet conserve des effluves influencées par des houblons américains côté ouest et vallée de Yakima. Notes que l’on retrouve parfois dans les bières de Rogue. On retrouve un bouquet fruité aux notes nobles et exotiques. Le tout relevé par des popintes de malts. Le palais conserve un penchant pour les houblons qui sans trop dominer qui ajoutent une belle complexité et amertume de fin de bouche, le tout sur un fruité agréable. Les malts ajoutent un côté pâle caramel sur un léger grillé. Sympa comme nouveauté Fleurac.

From tap. Pours hazy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is toasted malty and barnyard. Citric, dry and fruity. Chemical. Bitter and dry toasted malty. Artificial, toasted malty and citric dry. Toasted finish.

Okay this one has led to a lot of confusion. Apparently they made 2 EU version of this beer, both same name but completely different beers. This one is both bottled & kegged. There is also an imperial porter out there with the same name but they only have kegs of that one but no bottles. Delirium Hoppy Loft got one keg of each, no indication or explanation as to what is what. Sampled draft @ Delerium Hoppy Loft. Appearance: hazy amber, with a white head, nose is full of exotic hops. Mango, grapefruit, tangerine coupled with sweet banana and brown sugar. Taste is more towards bitter herbs. Heavy on hops. With in the background caramel malts. Brown sugar, banana yeast, finishes with a mix of herbal and exotic hops. M/M body. Pretty nice brew & much like the other BAQ, suspiciously good for Fleurac. The porter is a lot nicer in my opinion. At least Fleurac has improved a lot in the quality department now if they can improve in the communication department, we have got ourselves a nice thing going here.

20 cl. draft @ Delirium Hoppy Loft. I am going to keep my opinion on this one until I have more info about how this was made. This is Fleurac, didn’t taste like Geuze & I remember Jean from Cantillon going into a semi-fit of rage about this one. Lightly hazy amber with some lambic style bubbles. According to style or Fleurac filling a keg badly again? Smell is tart, hay, brutal stuff with some mushrooms, bitter old rutting wood & funk. Taste is nothing like geuze, vinegar but simple, rotting old white wine good, tart lemon, wattery, bitter mushroom, lots of booze! in the finish, Boon at this ABV didn’t feel heavy but this is not refreshing like geuze but hard to drink, lots of tart old rotting white wine wood in the finish. Body is flat & watery, once again question, to style or badly done? As a regular beer or sour this is below average but okay. I am going to rate it as such but as a geuze this is an insult. /////// Got more info about this beer, this beer is a blend of 2 wild fermented beers in wooden barrels in Auvergne. One was 1 year old & the other one 3 years old. Nice, no complains about this, calling it geuze is debatable but it was wild fermented & everything. Glad to have tried it, interesting experiment & I applaud people for doing things like this.

Draft @ Hoppy Loft. Where to begin with this? For one, I loathe the use of ’gueuze’ when the end product does not even use any lambic. Second, I must admit that the beer itself was not that bad, and compared to other Fleurac products this may come as an euphemism. Couleur dorée, col blanc mais dont la couche inférieur remonte très doucement à la surface, prenant le profil d’un glaçon. Arôme laisse effectivement la part belle à la barrique. Le côté boisé et résiduel de vin est fort présent sans pour cela être de trop. Notes boisées modérées avec au final aucune trace d’une base de lambic. Palais. Ici même question, où sont les lambics? Je ne retrouve aucune sensation de gueuze; ni dans le profil cuire, ni dans l’approche suret ou même dans le coté râpeux, grains. Le seul point positif étant ce travail de la barrique. Pour moi, il aurait été plus astucieux de faire mûrir une bière blonde que d’user maladroitement le ’terme’ gueuze. Palais est sec, un peu poussiéreux, mais venant de la barrique. Cette note reflète mon opinion nonobstant le style gueuze qui est nullement respecté. En notant par style, je passe dès lors à une cote de 5-3-5-2-11(12).

Bottle picked up from Fietje, Marseille, France, June 2013 consumed at home Sunday 13th October 2013 Pours brown (its described as a triple brown IPA) reasonably hoppy with a decent bitterness,. Some sour fruitiness at the edges. A little spicy, I wonder if the slight sourness I detect suggests that there us a slight infection as I don’t believe it is intentional, still it is not that obvious as to ruin this beer which is actually ok.
