Aroma of this wonderful sourness, funky and horsey. Some of the blueberry character still there but mostly all consumed by the wild yeast. Flavor was the same thing going on. So good yet so hard to explain. Gypsy19 (647), California, USA

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 31, 2009 375ml courtesy of Fiver29 – thanks John! Pours a cloudy purplish amber with a thin tan head. The nose is barnyard dfunk, vinegar, aspirin and unripe fruit. The taste is sour lemons, red wine vinegar, tart blueberry skin and light funk. Puckeringly sour at first but that fades to a semi-sweet fruit finish. Medium prickly mouthfeel. Very good - thanks again John! BOLTZ7555 (1100), Phoenix, Arizona, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 29, 2009 Bottle shared by Sparky27...WOW!!! Thanks again Eric!!! 2007 vintage produced a crystal raspberry pour with a fizzy eggshell head...pink/lavender hue. Aroma is extreme barnyard, pungent lemon rind, vinegar, and funk. Flavor is tart and puckering, with no real distinguishable blueberry present. Got lockjaw with the first sip, but this either mellowed or my tongue acclimated to the sour. Definitely more drinkable as it warmed. Lively carbonation that ignited the palate. Very good. HenrikSoegaard (4371), Randers, Denmark

Very sour barnyard aroma. Berrys not very present alas. Powerfull sour acetic flavor. Again lacks berries-notes. Long great sour finish. Oily palate. marcus (1885), Sacramento, California, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Aug 17, 2009 It says 2009 on the bottle, which I believe is from batch 4, purchased at the Cracked Kettle in Amsterdam. It’s a purplish blue lambic with a very pretty pinkish purple head - I just love the colors. There is a vinous blueberry aroma and a subtle blueberry flavor that is sour but not tart. I would drink a lot of this if I could find it. It just keeps getting better as it warms.
