Feb 24, 2006 Brown with ruby highlights. Tan head. Short musty port and berry aroma. Woody oak notes too. Musty light caramel flavour with lightly oaky berry finish. Some vineous notes too. Medium bodied, mildly tart and dry. Nice.

Nov 16, 2005 Hard to find any info on this beer, but is probably brewed in the museum of Liefmans in Oudenaarde.
Brown ale, with open fermentation delivers a nice sour flavour, with hints of fruits, like gooseberries. Can be stored for a long time. Just like the Goudenband.

Nov 5, 2005 Bottle: Brown coloured with reddish tints, lasting beige foamy layer, lively carbonation; sourish-malty nose, balsamico too; moderate fruity sourish character, quite dry, some bitterness very late in the finish, traces of a musty "cellar" taste. Quite easily drinkable, well balanced, light and pleasant sour ale. A good beer to begin with a journey into the world of the beautiful belgian sour ales...............

Oct 21, 2005 Maybe iv found a new favourate beer style, but i just cant get enough of flemish sour ales at the moment. Aroma is great, balsamic qualities, with a great sourness with some malty sweet goodness balancing it out well. Fruits and nuts kicking about aswell. Taste is not as complex but excellent sourness, balanced well with a goof frutiness, ranginf from brambles and blackcurrents to gooseberries. Excellent beer, want more. Think this may have been aged too.

Sep 5, 2005 A Mes rate:
Sampled at the Delirium Cafe. Love the bottle! Looks like something from a museum. Surley it is not allowed given the total lack of best before date or percentage. Slightly fruity but not anything I can put my finger on. Woody barnyardy nose. Dry and slighty sour but not overly so. Creamy but with some balsamic vinegar in there too. It is all over the place but it really is very good indeed. A wonderful Flemish sour. Why oh why do they not make this properly? A rare gem.

Aug 24, 2005 A beautiful old bottle, but the brewery noticed me this bottle is retired since 2003. Dark with almost no head. Aroma of dried fruit, grapes, raspberry. Light body, with a sour taste, which is even more present in the aftertaste. Some salty and apple notes.
