Pretty surprised to see this hit the government run Ontario liq-store shelves. I understand we got 600 for the province and I certainly did my share in making sure they sold out quick.
Appearance is very close to style, and exactly what you'd expect any upper tier Geuze to look like. quite cloudy, but not opaque, lots of head settles into a thin film of bright white bubbles. oh... and the bottle was a gusher too. (I know - You're all shocked).
Smell: Quite funky up front. Not quite a 'nostril stinger' though - mild to average acidity detectible in the scent. suggestions of orange zest, apple seed, apricot, and pear are preset. Very inviting and complex.
Taste: Taste is very well balanced and complex. Funk and sour flavours battle it out all over your mouth. Pretty intense Geuze, probably more so than a Cantillon Bio.
Mouthfeel is very lively, thin to medium bodied and of course very dry and puckering all over the palate.
Overall a very good Geuze to share with friends.

Singing with incredible amounts of mushroom funk, light vanilla, a ton of oak, a rich forest floor lambic character. A touch of sharpness, a blend of lactic and light acetic acid is present. A great aged gueuze.

Bottle: Poured a clear golden color lambic with a fairly large white head. Aroma of funky barn yard notes with light green apple notes and oak is really enjoyable. Taste is also a mix of funky barnyard notes, light oak and some green apple notes, dust and dry Brett notes. Body is about average for style with good carbonation considering the bottle has been aged a few years. Solid gueuze with great level of complexity.

The beer pours a hazed golden brown with a rocky white head that lingers. The aroma is funky earth, garage floor, and vinegar. The mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with above average carbonation. The flavour is sour and woody with plenty of funky flavours. There is both a sweetness and a sourness to the finish with the sour winning out.

750 ml bottle at Himmeriget in Copenhagen. I had several fantastic lambics and gueuze over the course of a few nights at Himmeriget while visiting Copenhagen. This one, along with Hefst, was my favorite. The flavor profile is so complex, yet so smooth. No sharpness, not excessively sour, just absolutely perfect. Best gueuze I have ever had.
