Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

UPDATED: OCT 31, 2008 Bottle: Poured a clear orangey color lambic with a huge slightly off-white head with excellent retention. Aroma of barnyard and sourness is quite evident. Taste is so well balance between sourness, tart, little bit of acidity, green apple with some nice funky yeast also thrown in. Probably one of the finest Lambic that I had t
Bottled in 2000. Very subtle gueuze. Yellow golden colored with a billowing white head that lasts forever and leaves great lacing. Barny, sour apples in aroma. Light bodied and highly carbonated. The cork removed itself after sitting on the counter for a minute after the cage was removed. Very nicely blended with sour and malt in flavor. Rea
Bottle. Nose is very subdued for a geuze. Notes of anise and clove come through in the nose. Sour with a bitter edge. Acidic and citric. What is the pH of this bad boy? Good amount of funkiness, although it is subdued. Great looking with a very lasting head.
