adamjackson (757) – Canaan, New Hampshire, USA – APR 17, 2012
S – The young Gueuze dominates the scent. Very strong, funky and bitter all in one. Floral honey scent and mango.
T – Wow. Amazing sour apricot taste on the tip of my tongue. Bananas and cranberries cover my tongue to the back of my throat. The mouth puckering sourness of a lime at the finish.
M – 20% carbonation. Heavy body with so much complexity. Very dry finish. Slick mouthfeel while in my mouth. More like a syrup than a beer. Very nicely balanced
O – This beer is excellent. it doesn’t compare to the 3F Gueuze or Gueuze blends I’ve had. The funk is nice but, mid-way through the bottle and it starts to become too much.
With its more drinkable sourness and delicious oakyness, I also enjoyed Drie Fonteinen more. You should post a review on RR Consecration, I’m quite sure it is my favorite beer in the world.
