NOSE: high-toned – citrusy – orange juice and lemon
BODY: lots of carbonation; slightly hazy yellow-orange color; light to medium-light bodied
TASTE: very sour --- lemony; pretty clean for a gueuze, although there is a hint of funk on the finish; not sweet; light orange juice; a bit metallic on the mid-palate; 5.5% abv not noticeable; very good. As a gueuze: 8.0 – 9.0/10

Very solid gueuze. Drank two 750mL bottles side-by-side; both were from the same lot. Both were pretty much the same, although one was a bit more lemony than the other, and the one that was less lemony had an interesting dry mustard-rubbed chicken aspect to it that the lemony bottle did not.
