I recently found a Belgian-oriented store that sells a whole bunch of different geuezes and lambics. Being that I live in a region that largely sleeps on craft beer (only the hot trendy breweries get real action around here), and moreover not having a clue how imports are distributed, I wanted to know if there are any Geuezes that may have any desirability, not necessarily like the infamous Loons', but some. I know I'm going to have a great time trying them all out since I just got into this beer style, but I'm still curious about this as well.
What pmoney said, also Tilquin and Girardin (black label). Lindeman's is good as well. *edit* My post was recommending good gueuzes for drinking. As others stated below, nothing else I mentioned is going to trade for much as I can find those on the shelves at my local liquor stores.
not too many of the big name lower-end gueuzes besides cantillon trade for more than shelf beers as in some regions they are shelf beers themselves. hell, i think 3F gueuze is far superior to cantillon's, but it's certainly not reflected in trade value. in any case, buy them up and drink the hell out of them.
no one ever mentions them but hanssens gueuze fond tradition oud beersel all solid and worthy and lastly, lindemans renee
You just want Cantillon. All the rest of the gueuze is garbage compared to the blends that Jean Van Roy makes, and you shouldn't buy any of them.
technically not a gueuze or lambic, but... http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/14046/53841 find it, buy it, drink it, wish you had more
Surprised at the lack of De Cam love (aside from Vanlingleipa). Oude Lambiek and Oude Gueuze are world class.
It's probably because they don't really distribute to the US and the OP was asking about other gueuze that he should check out locally.
