Oude Gueuze Lambic: Review


Each bottle matured for over three years
6% abv
375ml bottle
$8.99 a bottle
Hanssens Artisanaal
Dworp, Belgium


Appearance: dirty orange with a thin fizzy white … head? Can you call that a head … how about, it is thin and fizzy and white.  When I poured my second glass … I got head!!!

Aroma: sour apple, barnyard animal hair

Flavors and Mouthfeel: an earthy sour apple cider, the sour/tart flavors coat the palate for a long lingering effect; this will leave you licking your choppers, the oak is more noticeable as the Lambic warms, the texture is dry

My Strength Rating: 8 – the sour and snappy tart flavors just linger.
