May 22, 2009 draft at Chez Moeder Lambic in Brussels - Pours lightly hazy orange with no head. It smells funky, malty, and earthy. The taste is of mildly sweet malt and candi sugar with notes of earth and funk. The sugar is lighter than other faros I tried. The mouthfeel was oddly flat though. Is it supposed to be almost uncarbonated? That was disappointing for what was otherwise a very enjoyable session beer.

Oct 20, 2008 From a jug at the brewery. Pours with no carbonation and no head. Dark orange coloured. Diacetyl aroma and malty/grainy, not pleasant. Butterish and malty flavoured. Ends flat and light sweet with a persisting butterish note. I was warned that this was for people that don’t really like gueuzes and lambics :) and questioned several times if I REALLY wanted this.

Jun 2, 2008 Cask/ceramic jug at Chez Moeder in Brussels. Still, slightly hazy dark copper color - no head. Sweet brown sugar and Belgian candy sugar in the nose and flavor, but surprisingly it has some nice acidity - wet, oily, medium-to-full body, with sweet apple cider and some light funk and acidity, very raw sort of flavor, very real for faro. Weedy and smooth in the finish, nice overall.
