Sep 30, 2007 hazy golden with a low white foam. Fruity and tart aroma of bretts, citrus, white grapes and wood. Full and lively flavour of citric fruit, wild yeast, wood and white wine. Full bodied with a prickly carbonation. Long fresh finish of lemon and green grapes. Nice one

Sep 26, 2007 Bottle enjoyed with blackbread and aged camembert. Clear amber red with small cream colored head with good retention. Aroma of marzipan, decomposing apples and some balsamic vinegar balanced by sweet fruitiness. Very full flavoured and tart with remarkable bitterness. Almonds and alcohol leading to a dry and warming finish. Full mouth feel and soft delightful carbonation. Very interesting and tasty ale that could use more complexity in the flavor at first, but grows on you aas you get down the bottle. Good introduction to sour ales IMO.

Sep 15, 2007 2007. Acquired in trade with mj. Copper color with a slight haze. Moderately thick uneven off-white head. Aroma gives off a lot of fruity yeast aromas and a bit of a mild earthy funk. Thick palate and the carbonation springs nicely from under the thickness. Good fruity mix of Belgain malts and light funk to start the taste. The finish is a little spicy and funky, and the alcohol is a bit detectable. Overall, a well-made Belgain, but not my favorite Allagash.

Sep 14, 2007 Draft. Apricot orange color. Aroma was fruity with yeast and mild sour notes. Fruity with the flavors of oranges,plums, and breet mixing together. Like wine in some aspects. Dry light tart finish.

Sep 10, 2007 2005. Cork pretty much jumped into my hand as I removed the cage. Amber/gold. Small, foamy white head disappears quickly. Lightly tart nose of apple, pear, mild cherry, barn funk, subtle vinegar, and light sweetness. Flavor adds some vinous notes, oak, generic light fruits, alcohol, subtle vanilla. Very dry finish has a good amount of funk. Full body, a little too much carbonation. Great brew, one of their best.

Aug 18, 2007 Bottle shared by badnewsbeers. Murky orange apple cider appearance, thin-medium buff head. Big estery nose with clove and strong bitterness or peppery earthiness in addition to tart apples. Strong herbal, potpourri body with light tart apple and light fruits. The emphasis is on spicy esters, these and the light sour fruity funk creating a very Saison-esque beer. Very good, borderline excellent.
