Clear golden brown. Aroma is sour and cheesy. Flavor is sweet and cheesy, semi sour, some cardboard. A bit thin and tastes old.

750 ml bottle - thanks BVC; pours cloudy rose with no head; flat and no carbonation; straight funk and dirty socks; slight vinegar too; nose is offensive, while texture is soft with flavors of sour apples and cherries; aside from the nose, pretty mild across the board and decent overall

Courtesy of eaglefan538 shared at Hellbilly’s. Sour and had the fermented aroma usually prevelant in Belgian brews for me. Cloudy orange body white ring head. A sweet and sour tart bomb here. Sour pucjker face upon fist swing good brew thanks Brian.

Bottle 75cl. @ Papsoes blindtasting. [ Bottle #30. ]
Clear medium orange color with virtually none head, virtually none lacing, fully diminishing head. Aroma is barnyard, leather, acetone, lemon, flowers, breet. Flavor is light to moderate sweet, heavy acidic, acetic - vinegar and sour with a long long long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily to watery, carbonation is soft to flat, finsh feel is light alcoholic or maybe its acetone. But quit nice. [20090501]

No head ot speak of; nearly clear orange-amber beer. Very citrussy, leathergrease, lemon, flowers and obvious Brett. Some acetic even, lots of lactic. Dry taste, bit of liquorice over the mild lactic acid, more lemon touch, and just a touch of caramel. Dry, sharp sourish MF, but no real acidburn. Nice, somewhere between sour ale and gueuze (rather than old lambic). BIg thanks to CK!
