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.

Bottled. A deep red beer with a thin disappearing beige head. The aroma is acidic sweet with strong notes of berries as well as light notes of wood and metal. The flavor is rather acidic, combined with an artificial sweetener - making it rather sweet, leading to a dry acidic woody finish. I don’t like the note of artificial sweetener.

25 cL bottle. Pours cola brown with a fizzy off-white head. Roasted malty and cane sugarish aroma. Fizzy mouthfeel. Sweet and slight acidic flavour, quite sweet actually. Has a decent acidic note. Ends with a sweet, slight woody and brown sugarish. Nice.

Bottled (thanks tbone_!). Deep amber colour with small off-shite head. Aroma is sourness along with burnt sugar. Flavour is some wooden sourness along with burnt sugar and some mild fruityness.

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.

Clear dark amber with no head. Aroma is sweet and sour with hints of berries and wood. Pretty well balanced sweetness in the flavor with sour lambic notes in the background. Cheese and wood there as well.
