Bottle @ Koelschip, Copenhagen shared by Tyler. Thanks buddy. Been wanting to try this one for a good while. Pours golden copper with a big white head. Aroma is herbal, light tart, sweet orange, floral, grapefruit, mouldy woody, sweet stone fruits. Taste is tart, lemony, herbal, stone fruits, oaky, earthy, mouldy, citrussy, lots of tannins. Damn, this is good! So complex and delicious.
Corked bottle. Orange color. Oak, honey and lemon in the aroma. Oaky lemon flavor with leather and honey. Rounded sours. Very drinkable. Complex enough, but there is room for more. Excellent, but not the very best Armand can offer.
750 ml bottle at Himmeriget, Copenhagen. Hazy golden orange color with white to off white head. Yeasty aroma, funky, barnyard, wood, fruity, citrus fruits and stone fruits. Sweet and acidic taste like aroma. Medium oily body with soft to flat carbonation
Bottle at Zwanze Day Zurich. On the level of Lente. More berries, good spices. Beautiful!
With Toni and anstei and co. Some sweet fruit character. Perfumed flowery character. Taste has a bit of heavier apples, blackberries maybe? Some rubber again. Böchsel? Again, very foamy carbonation. Good stuff again.
Bottle shared at Grote Dorst. Pours light cloudy orange with a big off white head. Aroma has a deep cheesy funk, citrus, light barnyard and cellar funk, cobwebs with light tart fruits. Flavour is moderate sour. Light to light medium bodied with soft carbonation.
Bottle from the brewery. Nose of grapefruit, leather, a bit of stone fruit, touch of vinegar. Dark orange-amber, hazy, medium head. This beer has perfect carbonation: high but soft, small bubbles. Really nice grapefruit flavor, good acidity, not startling, nicely fruity. wonderful.
Bottle shared with my wife. Cloudy orange colour, creamy white foam. Lively carbonation. Fruity aroma with hints of green apple and citrus. Tart with dry finish. Refreshing and very well balanced. Very good geuze!
