Haven't tasted that one. But indeed, #Gueuze are sour beers. It's -- I guess -- an acquired taste.

As for finding a bad one... It definitely depends on taste, but there are some I remember from my student years, the cheapest of the cheap... The kind to give you bad shivers when drinking. Unfortunately I forgot their names.

I am trying a new Belgian beer tonight. I bought it without knowing anything about it. This one is called Mirakel, brewed by De Ranke. Turns out it is a #Gueuze beer and a bit sour.

There is so much variety among Belgian beers and I have yet to have a bad one. What a country!

A 75 cl bottle of Mirakel beer. The bottle is made of green glass. The image on the label shows a white ‘M’ on a background of a green barrel.

It's become a bit of a tradition for me to mark Saturday lunchtime by having a slightly "special" #beer. (I'm retired - Saturdays are just another day, but who cares?) I used to have a Boon #gueuze #lambic until #Waitrose stopped selling it. Then I switched to #Duvel 6.66 and now Waitrose have stopped selling that as well. Now I'm eating into my stocks of #Orval and other beer brought back from continental holidays.
