Feb 8, 2009 [Sampled with the trio: Svoger, Svogergylp and Adenila Foged at EBF, 2008.] Although it is long time I’ve tasted this I remember some good dry notes, fine acidity, good fruity noseand it must be one of the best fresh real lambics for a hot summerday. Perfect balance and indeed one to hide and forget in the cellar!

Jan 31, 2009 EBF 2008, thanks Jacob! Cloudy amber with a small white head. Strong raspberry aroma with some funk. Sweetish and funky berry flavour

Jan 9, 2009 Updated: Dec 22, 20092004-edition. I opened this perfect marriage at New Year’s eve with my wife and family. It pours a hazy orange-brown with a low pink head. The aroma is thick with sweet raspberries - very nice. And the flavours doesn’t dissapoint: raspberry and sweet cherry dominates with some further notes of wood. It is not anywhere near as complex, as say Lou Pepe Framboise, but it is extremely resfreshing All combined, this is something to treasure.

Dec 18, 2008 Japan seems to still have many a bottle of this retired beer. It’s available in several Tokyo stores. Pours a copper pink color, small off white to grayish head. Smells of unripe raspberries, cherries, a hint of the bitter sweet taste to come. Tastes of sour raspberries with a hint of cherry, moves to bitter quite quickly. Medium and frothy on the palate, slow finish. As a Lambic fan I could have used it a bit sweeter, but a nice brew!

Nov 28, 2008 BDR, I am so sorry you opened this gem early... on the other hand, I thank you for being in your presence. Murky brown color with a thin head. Aroma of raspberry jam that was made about 30 seconds ago. Strong, very strong raspberry flavor. Incredibly thick. Lightly tart and some wheat. Not sour at all. Delicious.

Nov 27, 2008 my head bloody hurts. This is why I generally leave my rarest beers 800 miles away - one bad day and I start sessioning stuff that I’d rather share at a tasting...
In any event, a very nice fruit lambic. Not as tart as the regular boon’s but quite nice. In fact, this 2004 bottle had an incredible aroma of fresh raspberry jam with a faint sourness to it. Sweet fresh raspberry jam flavor that was incredible, if sweet.

Oct 16, 2008 1995 Vintage bottle. Not quite as funky as I would have liked. A little sweeter with a nice raspberry flavor. Needed more sour but still very pleasant.

Oct 11, 2008 Bottle at EBF 08. Thanks Jacob. Haze, orange red. Perfect aroma of raspberry. Just like raspberry jam, without being too sweet and then in mouth..... dies in the mouth, bit too sweet. It’s ok, just not fresh enough for me and a tad too sweet.
