Apr 18, 2008 Updated: Feb 3, 2009375 ml bottle courtesy of zinister. Pours a cloudy brown color with a small beige head that holds at 1/4 inch. The aroma is strong with funky brett and some green apples. The flavor is tart and sour with green apples, sour grapes and candied apples. The mouthfeel was just a bit on the thin side. The finish was short and clean with a bit of lingering sweet apple. Overall: A very nice sweet and sour lambic.Thanks zinister. A recommended pour.

Mar 28, 2008 Appearance: Pours a simple mahogany body with a white head.
Smell: Some sweetish hints to the aroma of apple cider vinegar and rotting logs. Yeesh!
Taste: The extremely high level of sweetness can do little to cover the vinegar and tainted wood flavor. All of it pretty foul. No, no, a thousands times no!
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: I believe this is my first faro. Although, if the patent awfulness of the rest of these Chapeau beers is any indiction whatsoever, it wasn’t much of a faro at all.

Mar 15, 2008 Pours a deep amber red color with a little bit of a white head. Aroma is wet musty wood, but not quite as strong as the other beers. With some cherry fruitiness. Flavor is sweet cherry syrup and slightly wet wood finish.

Orangy-brown, small off-white head. Candiflossy aroma. Sweet and mellow, not unpleasant, but too sweet even for a faro.
