Commercial Description:
Faro Boon is een bier van spontane gisting waarbij Meerts bier en Oude Lambiek gemengd worden. De lichtbruine kleur en zoetzure smaak worden bekomen door toevoeging van kandijsuiker voor het bottelen. A beer of spontaneous fermentation, made by the blending of ’Meerts’ beer and old Lambics. The light-brown colour, as well as the sweet-sour character, are due to the addition of candisyrup before bottling.

Very dark brown. No head. Candyish nose - toffeeish and almost liquoricey. Quite sweet and sugary up front with some caramelized notes. Yet, some barnyardy complexity remains. It’s very drinkable.

Bottle, WSF. Deep dark garnet color with scant head, not flat. Dark fruity aroma of prune, other dark, dried fruits, berries, and lots of sugar. Nice palate. Lots of lingering sugars. Very sweet and dessert-like but not in a bad way. Has some wood, and loads of loads, layers and layers of sweet fruit-flavored candy. Not exactly a sophisticated beer but is fun.

Bottle. Clear orange colour with a creamy white head. Rich complex aroma and taste of fruits, yeast and caramel with sugary/sour notes. A faro on the sweet side, but good.
