JK (2479), Twin Cities, Minnesota, USA Sep 14, 2008 Where the Wild Beers Are, 2008. Not very sour but a good beer. Medium-sweet aroma with balsamic vinegar. Some spices, oak, malt, and a fruit flavor that I attribute to the wine. Medium palate. One of the best French beers I have had. fonefan (4850), Ulfborg, Denmark Aug 10, 2008 Bottle 75cl @ the Horse school WSF-08 afterparty in Opstal.

KimJohansen (4285), Copenhagen V, Denmark Jun 18, 2008 Bottle @ WSF 2008. Dark brown with medium beige head. Sweet and sour with berries, roasted malt, caramel and woody notes. Sour finish. Mes_and_Sim (4476), Highgate, Greater London, England May 30, 2008 A Mes rate: Bottle at weekend of tarts afterparty. Wow. I was not expecting this. A bloody good beer and there is no doubt about it. Very dark brown with a very good beige head and plenty of lace. Superb sweet fruity notes with a ton of wood and delicate but assertive sourness. Excellent caramel malty notes that are waaaay in the background. Long prickly finish. Excellent French sourness. Who woulda thunk it? Very impressed.
