Nov 11, 2006 From a 750mL Bottle. Pours a rich, burgundy mahagony with a light layer of pinkish head. Tart raspberry aromas mingle with sour pinot noir grapes and some soft oaky vanilla tones. Crisp, sour mouthfeel with a prickling carbonation feel. Loads of fresh, tart, under-ripe dark fruit flavors dance on the palate. More tart berry flavors and some sour raspberry seeds tickle my tongue before finishing in a dry, woody smack.

Nov 10, 2006 Bottled at Horsens Beerfestival. Clear, red beer with a pink head. Yeast, mould, sourness and berries in the aroma. Yeasty flavor with barnyard-notes. Astringent, thin body and a stinging finish. A nice, teeth-cleansing beer, but as usual with lambics I have troubles describing it, but really love it. (061028)

Oct 30, 2006 BA BBF 06. Dark amber with some ruby red hues. Aroma: pretty funky, fruity, all over the place and complex. Taste is dark tart fruits, tartness, brett, lightly sour but not in that acetic acid (vinegar) way. Excellent, pretty complex.

Oct 3, 2006 Draught at Max’s in Baltimore
Ruby blood color, light pink head. Nose of light grape, darker though with currant and cherry notes. Lightly vinous and tangy notes. The flavor is musky, a bit dry, but still very complex and tasty. Finishes ripe, juicy, clean. Good cantillon. I figure it must be better in bottles though.

Oct 1, 2006 Updated: Apr 3, 20081/22/07 On tap at the maproom. Deep red ruby color with a small pink head. A nose of sour grapes, sugar, and oak. Lightly carbonated, nice mouthfeel. Sweet flavors balanced well with sourness. Red grapes, tart, and so oaky. Drying sourness. Oaky tart finish. Comparing this to the other vintages, the earthyness seems to really come out over time. I love this beer. 9/5/8/4/18 = 4.4
10/1/06 - 750 ml bottles. Vertical with vintages 2005 and 2001. Pours a bronze red with a small pink head. The aroma comes out as woody and earthy with dark fruit and sour undertones. The flavor hits the tongue tart and sharp but rounds out well with oaky earthy flavors that fade to delicate sweet grape fruitiness that finishes very long. The ’05 is similar but with the oaky and dark fruit notes turned down and a little thinner body. This one blew me away. 4.7
