Sweet light fruit smell, very nice ... lacing is medium, colour is of peach juice ... wonderful flavour, sweet and refreshing ... tangy! ... a delightful beer that i would drink all the time if it wasn’t so expensive!

I actually liked this one better than the rest of the de Troch lambics. Something about the mirabelle plum aroma and flavor mixed well with the lambic tartness.

Yum yum! This slides down so soft and sweet with a scintilating fruit tang and a shivery little fizz that it’s gone before you know it. You are then left bereft as a howling naked orphan wanting more.

Bottle. Aroma of tart and sweet fruits, some oak. A bit more oak in the flavor to go along with a tart base with balancing sugar. For me, the sweetness was nowhere near as overpowering as it is for others, and I found the beer to be pleasantly tart and oaky. Yes, this is clearly sweetened, but my tongue seems not to be offended by such a sacrilege.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy orange with a small white head. Aroma of sweet fruit (I don’t specifically get plum, maybe apple and pear). Flavor is similar to a punched up apple juice. Slight sour prickliness. A touch of oak/wood in the finish. Very drinkable and enjoyable. Not spectacular nor that complex but super tasty! Certainly far from a nasty drain pour. These bad ratings are just sad. I don’t understand them. I was initially frightened to try this beer, but now I know not to believe the silly warnings in the future. 7/4/7/4/15 (3.7/5)

Bottle... Murky, golden ale with a small, creamy, white head. The nose is of over-ripe (two days gone) plum, barnyard and wood. The flavor is moderately sweet, moderately tart, fruity and woodsy. Medium-bodied and creamy with lively carbonation. Finishes sweet and tangy. Too sweet? Perhaps. Fortified with additional sugar and extract to eliminate what should be an eye-winking sourness? Probably. But, I dig it!

Sweet yeasty floral aroma -- almost like pie. Very sweet, effervescent and yeasty body with a bit of bitterness. A bit too sweet but otherwise nice.
