Well balanced acidity. Fin (3372), Merton, Oxfordshire, England Nov 3, 2009 Had this at the Borefts Beer Festival, De Molen Brewery, Bodegraven, Netherlands 30-10-09 Pours reddish in colour with a white filmy head and quite stunning sour fruity aroma, also some wood there as well. I get some fresh berries and the tastes is so funky and sour quite a wonderful contrast to the Imperial Stouts I’d been having over at the other venue. I also get that Cremola soda soft drink that you has as a kid, fruitiness is great, lovely, lovely stuff. A9 A4 F8 P4 Ov17 4.2 caesar (3020), Bunnik/Utrecht, Netherlands Nov 2, 2009 Tap @ BBF.

Awesome sour ale. altonbrownd (1862), Amsterdam, Netherlands Nov 2, 2009 Tap at BBF. Ruby body with large head. Totally not my style but have to give respect to this beer. Fruit and sour nose. Taste is also quite sour but sweet. Refined and went down well. jerohen (1602), Bussum, Netherlands Nov 1, 2009 Tasted at 1st Borefts Bier Festival, Bodegraven. Hazy ruby coloured, big head. Fruity notes all over the place, sourness and wood as well. Flavour is sour and sweet, not as harsh as a lambic, but stil pretty complex. Very nice beer. Borresteijn (1343), Amstelveen, Netherlands Oct 31, 2009 On tap at Borefts Bier Festival, De Molen. Hazy orange amber colour, dense off white head. Aroma is fruity, sour, musty, some wood. Flavour is sweet, fruity, light funky and a good deal of sourness. Medium bodied. Not my cup of beer, but nice nevertheless. Just a bit too sweet for a good sour ale imo.
