Dec 10, 2008 A slightly spicier version of Reinaert Triple, as if spice were added to the brew.

Dec 8, 2008 Bottle, labeled as Reinaert Flemish Wild Ale... Poured a hazy golden/yellow with a thick, fizzy, white head. Aroma was spicy with clove and yeast strains and biscuits. A little bit of tartness in the flavor but was well balanced by clove and citrus flavors with spices and earthy tones. Finished dry with a tiny bit of alcohol. Insanely drinkable for 9%. I think the bottle conditioning and wild yeast fermentation really played nicely with the flavors of this brew.

Nov 18, 2008 Clear gold body with a rich frothy white head. The aroma is very spicy and bretty. Lots of cat piss, herbs, caramel, lemon, honey and orange. The taste is very funky without being sour at all. Barnyard and spicy brett notes collide with loads of hops and a long, dry, grainy finish. This is a hell of a brew that’s not for the weak. A truly great example of the wonders of brett.

Oct 27, 2008 Yuch. the only thing good about this was the appearance! It pours a pretty golden color with a soft white head. Aroma is sweet/sour and taste is crap. I don’t think it was a spoiled bottle either.

Oct 20, 2008 I have had the Reinaert Flemish Wild Ale and thoroughly enjoyed it with my buddy Indra, though I opted out of rating it. I bought 3 different bottles of the De Proef Primitive because the concept of a changing beer intrigues me. I’ll try to rate the 3 that I bought.
Pig Nun
25.4oz bottle, served in a wide mouthed chalice. Cork says FP060(4?) and popped out with only a small pop. Orange colored and hazy with a smallish head and a few floaties. Aroma is barnyardy with subtle sour cherries and light brown sugar. The taste is earthy, metallic, and very wild. There is an odd flavor (band aids?) that I find off-putting. There is a modest amount of tartness. The beer is being served fairly cool, maybe it gets better as it warms? (6/3/63/14 3.2)

Oct 19, 2008 Bottle, shared by akevitt. Pours a hazy, yellow body with an orange and light green hue. Generous, white head with some sediment in the pour. Aroma of barnyard funk, sour apples. grain, and belgian malts. Flavor is mainly belgian malts and spices with a light sour citrus/apple tone. Smooth mouthfeel with a light to medium body.
