Jul 23, 2006 Draught at Københavnske Øldage 2006. Cloudy orange in colour with a very small quickly dissipating white head. Dispite the small head this beer is beautiful to look at. Stunning aroma of lemons, green grape skins, light wood, lots of citrus. The flavour doesn’t have the acidity of the aroma but still has large amounts of lemons, some oranges, light grapefruit and grass. Very dry mouthfeel, light body, mild carbonation. The finish seemed to last forever. Intensely dry with a moderate sourness. Mind-bogglingly good.

Jul 7, 2004 (sampled cask- conditioned (it was a handpump, anyway) at Akkurat, Stockholm, Sweden) Cloudy golden orange appearance with a rich frothy white head. Strong but smooth and elegant aroma of lemon, wood, soap, stable and grapefruit. Soft but very tasty and complex flavour of lemon and grapefruit. Slightly woody and sour finish but it is slightly overshadowed by the soft, juicy fruity body. Creamy mouthfeel with a flat carbonation. Very nice summerbeer. I will never forget the taste of this glorious brew.

Nov 4, 2003 Sampled at the Drie Fonteinen Cafe
This was the second straight Lambic that I had ever had, it was again far mellower than I was expecting. Of course it was 'sans-carbonation' (say it with a Cajun man accent its much more fun that way) and had a quite noticeable acidic aroma. The acidity promised in the nose was surprisingly subdued in the taste. It was much more of a balanced / mellow acidity, which I am surmising, was the result of a bit of age that helps to smooth out Lambics. The beer itself was quite a revelation. There was a fair amount of musty character, and an appetizing hint of mushroom and a bit of character nabbed from a proper strong stinky farmhouse cheese. All in all it was a great aperitif for the impending gastronomic exercise that I was about to have.

Aug 1, 2006 Draught@Københavnske Øldage. Another gem. Lovely acidity, yet the mouthfeel is quite smooth, with no carbonation. Typical grapefruity/lemony acidity, grassy and a little bit woody aswell. So juicy and delicious, nice and smelly, we need more beers like this in this world.

Sep 6, 2004 Updated: Sep 8, 2005Brewed march ’03, straight from the oak cask in a one litre swing top bottle. Brownish orange color, very cloudy, no head. Sedate citrus aroma, lovely honeyish citrus flavor. A fair deal of citric sourness. Cherry and just a hint of oak. A bit milky. Some walnut bitterness. Very complex lambic, especially in the flavor, with a very drinkable and refreshing character. This one is pretty good!!
Re-rate lambic from januari ’04, according to Armand De Belder, who filled my litre swing top bottle with this magic stuff. Orange color, just a bit hazy. lemon, mandarin and wood in the nose. Citrus in the flavor, strong woody tones. Just a bit milky. Hint of metal. Honey and mandarin. Just a bit sour. Complex and delicious. (8 3 8 5 17 = 4.1).

Jun 9, 2004 10 liter barrel, courtesy of Jacob Lövenlund: Light dusty orange/amber coloured. Is very beautiful in spite of the missing head. Initially has a very sour an tarty aroma. While drinking, it gets significantly sweeter and fruity. Flavour is earthy and sour but in a very very refreshing and pleasant way. This i really good stuff. Is fresh, dry and acidic in the end with a long lasting on the palate. Thanks again, Jacob.
