This blonde and slight sour ale is the result of a research combining Brettanomyces Bruxellensis and Pediococus Cerivisae from Wyeast and some skills out of the Wild Woesten.
Special beer by Struise as a tribute to Lembeek brewers.

Bottled. This beer is really weird to me, when I know what I drink, I really like it and buy many bottles in Ølbutikken, but then Papsø served it for me blind and I gave it a 2.4 (5/3/4/3/9), since I thougt it was an infected beer, not supposed to taste like this.

A hazy dark golden beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma is acidic with notes of brettanomyces, citrus and other fruits on a weak malty back ground. The flavor is lovely acidic (when I know what I’m drinking) leaving a tart note on the palate and tongue, combined with notes of brettanomyces, citrus, barnyard, lactic acid, and straw.

Poured from an 11.2oz bottle and served in a tulip. This beer poured a hazy golden with a thin head of off-white foam that quickly faded away into nothing. No lace. The aroma of the beer was made up of sour cherries, white grapes, lemon, and a sweet, mellow funk. The flavor consisted of a crisp, acidic lemony bite, vinous white grapes, mild brett, and a dry sourness. The mouthfeel was crisp and refreshing and extremely drinkable. A nicely complex drink with a well-crafted blend of sour and fruitiness.

Cloudy golden straw pour. Big sour nose slight hay and light fruity yeast. Flavorhasa weecherry tone mixedwith the heavy sweety tartness. Quite enjoyable though a bit on the sweet side.

There’s a slight haze to the golden body and the modest white head doesn’t hang around for long. The aroma has a juicy citric tartness along with a funky sourness and an underlying orchard fruitiness. They blend smoothly in the flavor, the sourness surging near the end. The finish is dry and tart. Tasty & refreshing & definitely in need of more drinking.

Bottle from Jason. Thanks bud. Tasted along side a De Dolle Oeral. Fizzy, lemony and not something I would by again unless it was on the sale rack for less than 2 dollars.
