Aug 27, 2009 Courtesy hopscotch. Pours a dark red color with some pink tint topped by a small off white head that settle quickly. The aroma is very citric with hints of tart blackberries and some barnyard funk. The flavor follows suit with tart blackberries and cherries followed by some funk and acidic flavors. There is some lactic cream that comes through and smooths out the sour flavors. Medium bodied with good carbonation and tart, dry finish. Really nice lambic with good flavor. This one surprised me.

Aug 26, 2009 Bottled, thanks xmarcnolanx! Cloudy reddish amber, siry head. Heavily citric aroma where the blackberries lay in the background. Freshly citric with some sweet buttery malt. Lightly spritzy with marked acidity. Does not really achieve the complexity of the originals, but on it’s own it’s a darn fine beer!

Aug 22, 2009 Thanks to omhper for charing the bottle. Big fluffy head that lingers. A fine lambic aroma but only traces of blackberries. The taste is semi sweet with a good acidity but the blackberries hardly noticable in the taste.

Aug 10, 2009 Bottle at the legend of chriso’s pre GBBF09 tasting. Alround rating: Some blackcurrent fruityness, gariny pale malt, brett is key again. Seems to me more like an infected golden ale than a lambic.

Aug 8, 2009 Blind tasting at Papsø’s
Muddy reddish orange color, no head. Sour aroma, some cherry too. Good body, it has an aggressive sour flavor, with sour raspberries, very lactic. Maybe a bit too much yeast at the end. Good lambic.
