Bottle. Amber color. Honey and malty notes, toffee and grapes in the aroma. Caramelly and sour flavor with note sof grapes, oak, leather, honey and citrus. Red fruit. Some kind of mix from Rodenbach Grand Cru and gueuze. I liked it!

Nov 2, 2009 Bottle. Pours a hazy, dark, reddish-brown color. A small head of smooth beige foam settles quickly to a frothy rim, its soapy wake leaving few, wet spots behind on the glass. The aroma is subdued, and sweeter than expected. Notes of maraschino cherries rolled in dry, dark cocoa come to mind, along with hints of fermented fig, lightly bretty oak, and milky, lactic tartness. Flavors follow a similar line, lightly tart and lactic, with a healthy amount of dark fruit sweetness, primarily fig and cherry. The oak infusion is soft and subtle, imparting just a touch of vanilla. Overall, nothing really pops. It just seems kind of blah and muddled. The palate is softly carbonated and a little thin, initial sweetness transitioning to drier and more tart on the finish. Decent brew, but a little underwhelming.

Oct 28, 2009 Filtered deep amber. Nice head, fine+medium bubbles.
A little sour in the aroma. Symphonic with acids battling hop. Interesting.
Thin-medium.. Fizzy or sour. Mouth watering.
Not sweet enough for me, but very well made.
Purchased in Ølbutikken.

Oct 15, 2009 Bottle, from Olbutikken. Pours hazy reddish copper, topped with a minimal off white head. Fairly tart aroma, with notes of oak, soap, brett, vanilla, faint cherry, and mild tobacco. Flavor is dry and oaky, with highlights of cherry pit, apple, lemon, and soap. Sweet tart finish that lasts a while. Not bad.

Oct 12, 2009 Bottle from Olbutikken in Copenhagen. Beer pours a cloudy brown, copper color with a small off white head. Nose is a bit earthy and tart. Touch of wood in the nose as well. Taste has a nice tart character. Brett is present but not overly so. There is a nice oak presence along with some cherry and pepper notes. Overall a solid beer but the taste do not last very long.
