Spontaneously fermented orange-hazed lambic stays sweeter, tangier, and flatter than more vinous gueuze types, bringing unexpected passion fruit, mango, quince, and peach ripeness to the fold, yet retaining expected leathery dryness by ester-y white grape finish. Green apple souring tucked beneath sparkling wine fizz and acidic cider tartness.

SCHOUNE MA P’TITE GUEUZE
Fresh squeezed orange-marmalade nose perfect for farmhouse brewed lambic-styled gueuze. Interestingly detailed sinewy yeast viscosity clouds hazy sunset hue while acrid grass-hay-oak leathering kept to minimum (unlike some Belgians). Juicy apricot-grapefruit-tangerine tang turns dry as orange-peeled lemon rind tartness juxtaposes sweet ginger ale remnant of fine 8% alocohol digestif. Adept crossover abating stylistic acidity.
