Bottle at Chris_o’s. Very sweet, artificial apple flavour, much like Rosie Apples but much less enjoyable. Awful excuse for a lambic.

Mar 24, 2008 Botlled, 250ml. Pale straw with pinkish head (how did that happen?). Bored at home on an Easter Sunday evening, I decided to rob one Sandra’s fruit beers. How I wished I hadn’t, sweet, sticky saccharin apple fizz. Whew this is bad but serves me right, She will claim one of my dark beers now.

Jan 17, 2008 Bottle, at London Shindig, August 2007. Chemical cider aroma. Applejuice - fresh and green with a faint beer note. Quite drinkable, but chemical and artificial.

Dec 28, 2007 Bottle, 25 cl.
Almost clear blond color, with a whitish creamy head. Aroma green apples, sweet syrup.Thin to medium body. Taste bit malts, and same like the aroma dry, sticky finish. Where is the lambic in it ?
Too sweet for me.

Dec 3, 2007 Strong sweetener makes those apples feel extremely sweet, aggressive even and quite bland juicy profile. Dull and thin palate with little effervescence to cut through the syrupy feel. Disgusting.
