Jun 28, 2009 750ml bottle (Pikkulintu, Helsinki) - shared with sayravai, Mirjukka, and Janne - thanks
Rich slightly hazy gold, brief fizzy head. Sharp but buttery woody aroma. Sharp sherbetty crisp body. A bit sweeter than the normal gueuze, and very very drinkable. However, I prefer a bit less sweetness, this didn’t ferment far enough.

Jun 28, 2009 (Bottle, 2006 vintage, at Pikkulintu, Helsinki, on 2009-06-27) Golden and hazy. Small white head. Sourness, cow house, fruitiness and wood in aroma. Medium bodied, mouth-watering and dry palate with medium carbonation. Sourness, fruitiness, vomit, wood and bitterness in balanced taste. Sour and fruity aftertaste.

Jun 10, 2009 Bottle: Poured a dark golden orange color lambic with a quite large bubbly head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma consists of sour notes with some distinctive oak and not much acidity which kind of surprised me. Taste was very refreshing with some sour notes and some oak; I was expecting more acidity and some barnyard notes but those were almost completely absent. Well done but considering the price difference I would stick with the regular gueuze.

Jun 6, 2009 1000. Pours a darker golden orange color with a white head. Aroma is sour with some light horseblanket, some oak, lemon, and some other barnyard aromas. Flavor is horse blanket and barnyard at first, then it gets some of the sourness. Finishes with some lemon and oak. Nice flavors throughout and is a very complex brew. Well done and well worth my 1000th.

May 30, 2009 Bottle generously shared by shyam for my education. Pours apricot in color with a faint white ring for a head. Much more approachable than the LP Kriek, despite it’s aroma, which eventually mellows into what I imagine a horse’s sock might smell like. Tastes of overripe apples, mild lemon, wood, yeast, and a tartness on the finish. A tamed beast.

May 19, 2009 Bottle generously provided by Shyam. Aroma was the highlight of this particular bottle, which I am told is unusual, and I believe it. Nose is sweaty, vinegar, light earth, mustard/must. Flavor is all of those with mustard vinegar at the fore, and oddly subdued. Finish has a very open, liquidous seed quality. This will not be my last experience with this specimen.
