What Our Editors Thought

“Classic gueuze notes in the aroma—light orange with a mineral undercurrent and a touch of cellar funk. A pastry-like sweetness defines the sip as vanilla pushes the orange notes forward.”

What Our Panel Thought

“Big berry and vanilla-bean aroma. Reminiscent of a guava custard dessert. Oppositional flavors of funk and milkshake give a delightfully tart and creamy impression. Tart, dry berry finish with herbal and floral hop notes.”

What the Brewers Say

“Aged in oak on second-use raspberry, mulberry, orange, vanilla.”
