On tap at DHVL. Copper colour, thin beige. Cereal sour aroma. Pretty drinkable in the mouth, some slight strawberry fruit, some sourness. It’s ok, but nothing special. I do like the finish which made me keep going back to it, but the body/middle was definitely lacking something. Even still it’s a decent beer.

Draft, at de Zalm, Roselare, Belgium. Pours orange-brown, topped with a medium-sized off-white head. Beautiful, quite acetic aroma, with notes of sour cherry, oak, some earthy character, and caramel. Flavor is fairly tart, again with acetic acid, sour cherry, and plenty of oak. Minimum carbonation; this is very very drinkable. This is a beautiful beer, I’m glad that I finally got to try it.

Draught @ De Zalm, Roeselare, Belgium.
[ As my Ratebeer rating #9000 ]. Light light unclear medium red orange color with a average to large, frothy to creamy, excellent lacing, fully lasting, off-white head. Aroma is moderate to heavy malty, berry, woody sour, caramel notes. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet and acetic with a long long duration, and a sour vinegar and dry finish. Body is medium to full, texture is oily, carbonation is soft to flat. This is a very very nice beer why can i only get it at this places ? But it is lovely so I will be back next time in Belgium ;o)) [20090308]

From tap at de Zalm, Roeselare. Pours almost clear and deep golden amber to light brown with a small and dense off white head. Dry malty and slight acetone aroma. Wineous ad slight wooden. Dry and acidic with a distinct sourness and subdued barnyard note. Extremely red wine brett like base flavour with a nice dryness following. Subdued acetone like finish. Lovely, especially in the early Spring sun.

Handpumped at De Zalm, Roeselare. Sweet prune aroma, Rum-Trauben-Nuss Ritter Sport. Quite vinous. Hazy dark amber colour. Nice stable frothy tan head. Quite acidic flavour, the finish burns my throat a bit. More prune and raisin notes, and more dark rum. The mouthfeel is a bit thin. Low carbonation.
