Nice pour with excellent carbonation for the style. Not much retention of course (as expected), but some better than expected lace, and a nice white film and collar also exceed expectations. Slightly burnt-orange colored body. Nose is all rampant,...
Part of the special Anniversary two-pack with a commemorative glass. $60 from Sergio. So, a 10% lambic. What do we have here? Nice, golden orange pour. Head is great for the style and ABV and has some decent retention. Some moderate lace, somewhat...
Ale Yeah! Atlanta, GA. Blended exclusively for the US market, the official description is thus; "Lindemans Oude Gueuze Cuvée de l'Amitié is a limited edition lambic blend created exclusively for our fans in the USA. Its name roughly translates to...
500 mL bottle, great presentation in the elegant bottle. A three year blend, bottled in 2025. Golden, honey-lemon body with a nice head that has very good retention and lace which are all well within style parameters. Looks good. Nose has an...
I really enjoyed this. It has a superb mineral-like body that imparts a light touch on the palate. Gentle, but consistent carbonation that comes with that carbonated, mineral water feel, and a very light acidity. Nothing too harsh here, all in...
Another beer that it's hard to believe that there aren't any formal notes for on the site prior to now. A 'classic' that I've drunk umpteen times before. 375mL corked & caged. 2023 Vintage, bottled June 2023, basically it's a year old....
375 mL bottle, black foiled and capped. Lovely color with a copper, clear bond underneath a foamy, wispy head. Obviously an aggressive pour was required, and it's gone quickly, No lace, no retention. Nose gives a light ethanoic acid whiff and a...
$28.95 for the 750 mL bottle. I might like this in the end, but I don't think that it will be very good value. Anyway, I'm invested to this point, so here we go. Capped and corked, the beer opens with a really healthy pop. Good gun-smoke....
I've been drinking various types of sour beers for around 25 years. I've also been to Cantilon. Twice. As such, I know sours and and I have an appreciation of these beers. Having said that of late I've been 'feeling' such beers less and less....
Mini-champagne, green glass, dimpled bottom and gold foiled neck. Green's on Buford, Atlanta, GA, USA. Light, honey colored body with some nice dense head and some pretty good retention and even a touch of lace. Some spotty head on the surface....
375 mL, corked & caged bottle. SB 47 on the cork. Classic, approachable Gueuze. Pour is a mid-orange with a fizzy head as a result of an aggressive pour. Good clarity. As expected the head dissipates quickly to leave no lace. Color is sharp....
Surprised to see this on my recent visit to the Charleston Beer Exchange, Charleston, SC, USA. $6.99 for the 12.7 fl oz, dimpled, green, corked and capped champagne type bottle. The guys at CBX were a little surprised that I bought this (and so was...
Additional notes 07/13/25 The bottle pictured came directly from Blegium to me, is a 250 mL version, and is noted as being 5.0% rather than the 2008 notes showing a 4.0% beer. As I noted below in 2008, this beer has been absent from the US for...
Greens on Buford - 750 mL corked & caged. SB15 on the cork, bottled on 11th December 2000. FWIW, this is listed on the bottle as 5%, not 6% as in the BA db. Good pop on the removal of the cork, and a little white gun smoke. Poured into the...
2022 Vintage (Pictured). I evolved since those 2006 notes. This is common and natural. This might be the prettiest colored beer on the whole planet! Perfect clarity in a bright, tangerine, deep orange colored body. Fizzy foam tops the beautiful...
If you want to know what traditional, real farmhouse cider from the West of England tastes like, the closest you can get in the USA is this stuff. If you were to remove the carbonation and add a hint of apple flavor to a Cuvée René, you would have...
Additional notes 04/30/24 (pictured) L50761, Best Before 17.03.2035 (just sneaked in, LOL). 375 mL, corked & caged of course. A beer that I have truly grown to love and appreciate over the years. I think that the most profound change over the...
