Bottle: The aroma has lots of apple, cinnamon, and light lemony tartness. It pours a transparent golden-orange with a minimal white head. The flavor with moderate apple and a hint of yeastiness. The finish has some light-moderate lemony sourness. Medium bodied with minimal carbonation.

Dec 25, 2009 2004 Bottle. Pours a luminous clear golden with a clear white head that vanishes quickly. Aromas of wet newspapers, Asian pear, some green grape, and a nice dose of funk. The flavor of this is so well balanced it is truly extraordinary with muscat grapes, great geueze funkiness, and green apple. There is just the right amount of carbonation which offsets the sour finish. This is one of the smoothest, most elegant beers I have ever tried. It reminds me of the 3 Fonteinen J&J Blauw, which is most certainly a good thing. A pleasure to drink.

Dec 25, 2009 Beautiful copper pour. Aroma is hay, fine sherry vinegar and a little toffee. Flavor is super elegant, medium tart and lightly sweet with great balance.

Dec 17, 2009 Pours with a golden body topped by a thin head with little to no lacing. It’s slightly sweet and fruity with a nice sourness coming through. Light, crisp and slightly dry.

Nov 28, 2009 Many, many thanks to mesandsim. Crisp and zingy brown. Hugely aromatic with sour brown rice and an almost sake and whisky characters. Far more sour in the mouth with Dijon and white wine vinegar flavours. It has a long finish of balloon latex and woody dirt. Love it to pieces. One of the most intereting and complex.

Nov 11, 2009 Golden-yellow in colour with fine white head. Aroma is citrus like with a slight green-sour vegetallness about it. Taste is nicely nervous and tart with a good refreshing twang. nice dry finale with a fine bittering in the end.

Nov 6, 2009 Very pale amberish colour with little to no head, looks cool and smells very sweet and oaky, very special and white-whine like. Flavour is quite sour but balanced buy huge woody flavours ending on a dry vinous note with lingering wood complexity. Mouthfeel is smooth. Very odd in a good way, a must try for sure.

Oct 22, 2009 Bottle this awesome guy brought to our bar. Really musky in the nose. Notes of tart grapes, earthy yeast, and even a hint of body oder. The flavor is as potent as the aroma with a tiny note of vinegar that doesn’t detract from the overall flavor. Very acidic. Glad I got to try this very special beer.
