Pours a dark murky orznge. Big white head. Scent is full, intense malty breadyness. Funky, brett. Taste is full, fairly acidic, mild acetic, pronounced wood and brett. Touch minthy in a way. Dark malts dont specifically present themselves , but builds another layer. Slightly 'plasticy' to me though. Not their best one but certainly acceptable.

0.375 l bottle from 'Het Huis van de Geuze', bottled in November 2023. Sweetish, sourish, rather fruity, gently funky and slightly vinous aroma of overripe lemon, vinegar, hay, gooseberry, brett and white grapes.
