Uno spettacolo al naso una varieta impressionante di sfumature ( sembra un ottimo sauvignon ) il gusto e’ sorprendente con un retrogusto lunghissimo dopo averla bevuta la bocca rimane di una pulizia unica e l’acidità invoglia a berne ancora e ancora........

woody nose with crazy lambic aromas comming from all over. Beautiful pale color, opens with some straw, orange, and ends so rediculously tart

Hazed golden orange appearance, no head formation or bubbles. Nose is acidic, becoming pungent and cheesey as it opens, mildly sweaty but not too menacing. Tart, sour fruit intro, unripened orange but a mild balance of sweet orange peel too. Mildly cheesey middle, strong acidity, grapefruit citrus and sourness in the finish. (Bottled in 2002).

1999 bottle. had this side by side with the gueuze and I like this one a bit better. slight ’merde du lapins’ and fruity aroma. very tart, complex, and refreshing with some cidery undertones. excellent

Bottled in 2003... Hazy golden color with no head, just bubbles. Funky barnyard stinky cheese, brett, and hay in the aroma. Cheesy, tart, pepper and oak, very refreshing. Zero carbonation and strong grapefruit. Subtle yet elegant.

Bright orange color, no head or carbonation. Funky sour apple aroma, moldy. Of course it’s sour, but in a refined way, fruity, wood, somewhat sticky finish, mostly dry. Unique and wonderful.

No head. Very few (if any) bubbles. Body is golden (darkish) and a little bit cloudy (it was lying in my cellar but I just couldn't let it stand for long...). Mild aroma; a little sweet, tart, grape, lambrusco!?! Flat and gentle taste; tart, grape, apple juice?, oak. Complex and fascinating.

Pours flat and hazy. Big stinky funky woody sour aroma. Has some fruity notes also, maybe some cherry and pear. Also a bit of breadiness. Very clear and strong in smell. Passes fast to the throat in a fleeting manner, taking all vestiges of the previous meal with it. Repetition captures the flavor. Musky and tart with something of an acidic burn in the finish. The really interesting part of this beer is the retronasal aroma. It has some juniper and dried apricot that is very appealing but quickly lost. Somewhat creamy body with a moderately dry finish. Really an exceptional beer.
