adamjackson\u00a0(794)<\/a>\u00a0– Canaan, New Hampshire, USA – NOV 1, 2012<\/small><\/p>\n

75CL bottle acquired in Gent Belgium. Paid around 10 Euro. Bottled November of 2011. Enjoyed in a white wine glass at 60 Degrees F.A – No cork pop on this one. Slight carbonation on the pour producing a single finger head of off white colors but faded quickly. Bright and slightly cloudy orange appearance.S – The scent is like many other gueuze. Also some notes of pepper spice and oak.<\/p>\n

T – The taste is VERY unique. Less hoppy than expected but this isn\u2019t a fresh bottle. Still, the hop bitterness is apparent and contains notes of pine, peppers and citrus. The finish is very much a gueuze but with more lemon citrus and honey than others. It\u2019s a very bright and sweet beer throughout.<\/p>\n

M – Light-Medium body, light and effervescent mouth feel.<\/p>\n

O – I\u2019m very pleased with this beer. The hops certainly make a big difference and it\u2019s one I\u2019ll have to drink again when I get a fresher bottle.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
