fonefan (4333), Ulfborg, Denmark Apr 2, 2008 @ <a href=http://ratebeer.com/events-detail.asp?eventID=6803 target=_new> Zythos Bier Festival 2008, Sint Niklaas, Belgium. Clear medium yellow orange color with a virtually none appearance, virtually none lacing, head. Aroma is moderate apple, wheat, wood, sour - fresh green apples. Flavor is moderate sweet, moderate to light heavy acidic and moderate sour with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is flat. (020308) thebeertourist (1786), Oslo, Norway May 23, 2007 Draught at 12de Vilvordia BierProefFestival. Hazy orangey amber, only a few bubbles alongside the side of the glass. Lemony aroma, sour notes of milk and yoghurt. Flavours start out lemony with sour yoghurt, moving towards more woodiness. the finish has a softening touch of almonds. Body is medium to light and of course completely flat, as expected. I wish they made more efforts promoting this seriously good beer instead of concentrating on all the other crap they brew. Mes_and_Sim (4320), Highgate, Greater London, England Mar 11, 2007 A Mes rate:
Draught at ZBF. A reasonable attempt at a proper lambic. A little too buttery and just a little too sweet. It’s all there just not quite as refined as it should be. Sourness is quite high, a little sandalwood, dry fnish. So so. madsberg (4365), Bangalore, India Mar 11, 2007 Draught. Light brown coloured. Unclear. No heead. Earth, sweetness, woodnotes and some acidic sourness. Flavour as well is quite acidic and sour. Earthnotes and light barnyard. Is a bit unrefined, but overall a decent lambic. Medium body. Good sour and cleansing end. Hildigöltur (5052), København Ø, Denmark Jul 13, 2005 From the cask at the brewery. 2½ years old. It could not get any worse after I had tasted their young lambic. Luckily this was not bad. Slightly woody and acidic. Not as complex nor sour as the best lambics, but definately acceptable. While drinking this, it was very funny listening to one of the brewers telling about how De Troch fights for traditional lambic throughout the world.
