Shared bottle at local tasting. Deep golden colour, low white head. Lovely and beguiling aroma of brettanomyces lambicus, white wine vinegar and farmhouse. Sour and acidic flavour, clean, lemony and vinegary - but (in a perverted sense): GOOD!

Amber solid color with a thick beige head with great retention and leaving laces.
Aroma with notes of the friendliest sourness with faint funky notes. Hints of caramel malt and stone fruit marmalade.
Flavor with notes of sulfuryl water, spices, lemon, oak, faint barnyard and white grapes. Dry aftertaste with a decent attenuation and sour, though not aggressive finish.
Light body with appropriate carbonation. No way you can tell this is 7% abv.
Very balanced Gueuze with fair and equal shares of funkiness, malt, spices and lemony sourness.

It is good but a bit bland, not as full flavored and tart as I expect a Geuze to be.

Look: golden slightly orange with a thick white head

Aroma: wheat, lemon, apple, pear

Flavor: There's some grains/wheat, it's sweet, slightly tart, a little bit of lemon, apple, pear.

Body/Overall: light to medium body

Pours a bright amber gold, rising streams of bubbles, and an ample head of foam. Long lasting coverage and arcs of spotty lacing around the glass.

Aroma is soft, light mineral and clover honey, lightly malty. Tiny bit of acidity.

Tart lemon citrus, soft oak in the background, effervescent round feel. Slightly creamy texture, barest hint of lambic funk. Tangy lemon rind, light minerality. Not outright sour, making it ideal for the novice lambic drinkers.

Overall this is better than I remember years ago, it seems to be fully traditional without any additives. Not a bad one, wouldn’t turn it down, but there are more complex gueuzes out there.

Picked up a bottle at a carrefour express for 1 euro or so. Orange, decent head. aroma and flavor are malty, sweet, bad. I knew it was going to be bad going in but I thought it would be decent train gueuze. Nope.
