| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Feb 7, 2007 Old lambic (2 yrs) Completely clear, colour of old sherry; no head. Not overwhelming nose, but consisting of Brettanomyces, and cheesy hops. Is it the colour - but I SMELL old sherry. Beautiful, great taste like old, aged, demi-sweet wine, even touch of muscat grape. Definitely soem sweetness, very strange withe the very dry, tart mouthfeel. great lambic. Familiar AND surprising.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 27, 2006 On draft at in de Wildeman, Amsterdam. Hazy golden coloured, very small head. Aroma is everything you want in a lambic (do you still want me to list it al?). Flavour shows typical tartness, but is not as harsh as i thought it would be. On the contrary, this brew is quite mellow, nicely balanced between tartness, sourness and fruityness. Good lambic, although i think i like their gueuze better. caesar (3034), Bunnik/Utrecht, Netherlands
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 20, 2006 Tap, in de Wildeman. Hazy golden color, hardly any head, some lacing only. Aroma is tart, horseblanket, hint of hop, fruity. Taste is quite tart, but still very soft, nice balance. mds (2112), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 17, 2006 Draught. Hazy orange-yellow with a tiny head. The aroma is funky, soapy, has grapefruit and oranges as well. Flavour is very ripe - tons of wheaty funk and amazingly dry and flat. Mouthpuckering palate. Acidic yet complexity subsists. Grapefruit and lemon in the finish.
Sampled this at Centrum in Beersel on May 11, 2006. bager (2121), Copenhagen N, Denmark

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 30, 2006 (Draught at Akkurat, Stockholm 29 Apr) Copper colour, no head, absolutely still. Complex nose with overripe pears, leather, stable, wet leaves in autumn, nuts, old cheese and ryvita. Taste is musty and acidic with a bittersweet character of apple juice, stable, leather, horse and bitter almonds. Very complex stuff that kind of grows on you. A truly odd brew, that is hard to compare even to other lambics. TheBeerGod (3157), Newport News, Virginia, USA
