Commercial Description:
FRIS & FRUITIG MORELLEN LAMBIEK BORDEAUX BARREL Fruit Lambic – 5,6% vol. Each flavour component plays so beautifully off each other that it is like watching a well done stage play. A pair of characters would present themselves on your palate and trip delicately around your senses.With each unveiling, new complexity was found and a new sensation. Subtle, refined, delicate, nuanced.

Bottle no. 125 at home. Amber with a small beige head. Lambiek style fruity nose with cherries (wonder where they come from ;). Flavour is wood and cherries, a tad sour. Overall a quite nice Lambic

Bottle from Ølbutikken, Copenhagen. Nr. 222 of 520. Poured in a Cantillon flute. The colour is deep red, almost rusty with a neat foamy light pink head. The nose is woody with a sweet sour impression. There is som berries and vinegar in the nose too. The taste is very nice. The redwine is quite clear and is backed nicely by the mild sourness. There is wood and berries that fades out and leaves an anonymous finish though with a creamy and oily palate. Indeed a good lambic.

Bottle. High creamy and thickl looking milky pink head. Hazy orange red body. Sour vinegar like aroma. Flavor not quite as sour actually it is realitively sweet without the vinegar notes of the aroma. Nice fruityness well rounded by the barrelse. Low carbonation. Long aftertaste. I am sure it would be splendid on a hot summer day.

Bottle no 81 from De Bierkoning. Hazy burgundy (!) colour with a small fine head. Wonderful sour fruit and potent vanilla aroma. Sour and sweet fruit flavours, hints of wood, but also more vanilla. Very well balanced, maybe too kind to the fanatics. Fizzy. De Molen master also the fruit lambik style appearantly.

Bottled from Bierkoning, Amsterdam. Hazy red-brown coloured, off-white head. Fruity lambic nose, tartness, nice. Flavour is not as sour as expected, fruit, wine, quite woody. Pretty heavy considered its ABV, more a sipper than a thirst quencher. I like the regular Morellen Lambiek better, but this is still pretty good.

Bottled 330ml. -Bottle No. 323 of 520. Hazy reddish/amber coloured, small off-white head, wine and fruity nose. Fresh fruity, moderate yeasty and woody with notes of berries and vanilla. Quite tart finish. Pleasant De Molen lambic.
