Feb 22, 2009 750ml. Pours a hazy orange color, modestly carbonated with a poorly retained bone white head. Aroma shows nice funk and fruitiness. Strawberries not recognizable unless you look for them. Upland house character is starting to become evident after trying multiple types of their lambics, they definitely share similarities and are recognizable as Upland. Similar aroma to the peach. Soft funkiness, not much barnyard, no unpleasant aromas. Relatively mild. Flavor is well balanced tartness. Mildly sour, light acidity but a nice pleasant tartness that shows plenty of fruit character. Ripe tasting, fruit skins, orange. Could be a bit drier and more tart, I think some age will help this particular beer. Good though not one of my favorite Upland Lambics.

Feb 19, 2009 750 ml bottle - thanks riversideak!! pours very hazy light pink with no head; tartness is very upfront in the nose, but smooths out; strawberry is a little weak; soft, silky texture with slight sour finish; a nice fruit beer and perhaps my fav of the 3 or 4 i’ve tried

Feb 17, 2009 (750ml bottle) Pours a lightly hazy to murky golden (slight pinkish hue) body with a small off-white (light pink) head. Aroma of funky barnyard, vinegar, strawberries, and sharp cheese notes. Flavor of strawberries, earthiness, and funkiness with a dry oak finish.

Feb 16, 2009 Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours a hazy persimmon color. (hell yeah! I finally get to use that color name I recently learned) Nose is dirty, earthy berries. Taste is earthy, woody, tangy and fruity and the strawberries are subtle and pleasant. Medium to long finish, and medium mouthfeel. Nice beer. Lively bubbles.

Feb 15, 2009 Golden pour with a light red tinge. Funky, bretty aroma, with wood, lemon, leather, citrus and light strawberries. Sour flavor with some funk and a hint of strawberries. I was worried the fruit would dominate, but I was pleasantly surprised. Absolutely awesome. Stunning.
