Aug 6, 2007 Bottle, Picked up at Noel Cuviers, Abel, West Flanders Belgium, Late June 07 Poured raspberry red with great pink head. Aroma had some raspberry there but quite sour and a bit musty and woody. Flavours were acidic, sour but not as sour as expected, a hint of raspberry, and very dry.

Aug 3, 2007 Wow...my quest for sour beer has reached a new pinnacle. This was the most sour beer I’ve rated yet! Aroma of sour raspberries and a little vinegar. Pour was a medium to dark brown with a frothy white head. Taste was extremely sour with with just a tad of raspberry...very faint. Mostly the sourness consumed my mouth and that’s how I like it! Awesome!

Aug 2, 2007 I was fortunate enough to have this on draft at Monks in Philadelphia. This is one of the better lambics I’ve had. It had a tart raspberry taste with some subtle earthy flavors.

Jul 31, 2007 More aggressive than many framboise I have had. Not such a good tool for getting into bed with girls as many framboise are, but ultimately more rewarding flavourwise.

Jul 26, 2007 Updated: Jun 16, 2008750ml, 2007. Cranberry red color with a thin pinkish-white head. Sour, yeasty, tart aroma. Cherries, and other tart berries are very apparent. Fresh and bubbly. Sour and simple. Very fresh. I like it, but it’s hot out today and it works. Not their best, but drinkable and refreshing. Rerate, 750ml, 2008. I have a little more experience with lambics now. Aroma is well balanced and super tart. Green hay and lightly effervescent in the nose. So tart with just enough berries. Dry astringent finish. Sweet tart and preserved lemon. So much better than I remembered.

Jul 22, 2007 Updated: Jan 26, 2009750 ml corked bottle. Pinkish head diminishing whilst pouring. Slight unclear pale ruby colored body. Initial aroma of barnyard and horseblanket, and then sourness and tart acidity takes over. Hints of rasberry in the flavor, defeated by a heavy sourness. Mouth-cleansing tartness throughout the finish. A bit too challenging for my tastebuds.

Jul 22, 2007 Bottle at home.
Light red. Aroma and flavor very sour, not much pleasure about this. And the raspberries are not tasted at all.
