Bottle courtesy of rudolf: Magenta colored body topped by a thin white head. Great aroma that is full of raspberries, dusty earthiness and barnyard notes. Nicely balanced sourness. Bright raspberry flavors with just a touch of sweetness and faint oak flavors. Excellent.

Bottle at Rudolf’s Lambic tasting 2009. Pours a ruby red with small white head. Funky, musty aroma with light raspberry fruitiness thrown in. Taste was berry tartness, light funk, juice, acidic, right amount of sourness. Very well done

Bottle from MaltOMeal at the Houston sour tasting. Thanks, man! Pours an average muddy, iced tea brown with a nose of body odor and cedar. Flavor is sour cedar-infused fruit with wooden planks in the finish. Average mouthfeel. Refreshing beer.

[Bottle] from ygtbsm94. Thanks Brad!! Pours a clear deep pink with a small, effervescent pink head. I can smell raspberry jam from about two feet away, and undeniable sharpness that hints at the tart lactic acidity. As it warms, the brett character becomes evident as well. The flavor is absolutely amazing. Loads of juicy raspberries, crazy acidity and tartness, just enough funk, and a touch of dry oakiness. Crazy, crazy delicious, and one that I can see aging really well.

C&C 750 at Monk’s in Philly, shared with JCB and MrBendo. Bottle dats Feb. 14, 2007. OMG. LOVED IT! Cloudy, dirty red with a pink tinged head. Big raspberry nose, acidic, musty woodiness, some citrusy (lime?) notes. Funky raspberry flavors, tart, cherry finally makes an appearance, woody... just a whole lot going on here! Absolutely delish!

Bottle. What a hell of a tribute. Pours a pulpy ruby body with an off white lacing. Cherry pit, and skins. Very low acidity with a light woodiness, fresh tart raspberries and delicious sour fruit character. I love this beer!

750 ml bottle from Bieropholie, shared by Ben (thanks), served cold in a goblet. AP24/09.

App.: Cloudy, very reddish-amber, remnants of an off-white head. Aroma: A good dose of barnyard funk, light ammonia, light rubber, some nice juicy raspberry and raspberry bush, white pepper, plenty of organic acids, sour cherries, leathery, raspberry seeds. Palate: Medium-ish body, fairly sparse effervescence, a bit astringent. Flav.: Lots of tart raspberries, some cherry, quite a bit fruitier than the nose; minerals and funky organic acids, barnyard and leather, bitter green herbs, quite sour and bitter with light funk and mineral-fruit.

A great fruit Lambik I’m sure. Slowly getting used to the style...

Bottle: The aroma consists of musty raspberries, moderate woodiness, and mild tartness. It pours a transparent reddish-orange and a small pink head. The flavor starts with a quick sweet raspberries. The flavor turns to moderately tart raspberry in the finish with some faint woodiness. The woodiness lingers in the aftertaste. Light-medium bodied with somewhat lively carbonation.
