Muddy light brown colour with no head. Aroma and flavour are primarily yeasty and dry. Sourdough? A mess.

No head to speak of, over muddy brown-ochre beer. Lemon, wood, barnyard, horseblanket, leather, chocolate, green herbs. Dry-bitterish, wet wood, bit watery, lemon, lactic acid. Light body, undercarbonated. Long-lasting flavours. Nose is fantastic, promising much more complexity than the bit watery rest yielded.

Soured almost ketchup malts. Cloudy and dirty copper with a decent white head. Soured red malts, Touch of balsamic and a decent acidic finish.

The first sour ale made by Oersoep in their own custom-built coolship, under the watch of Jester King, one of America's most prominent sour ale producers; 75 cl bottle of three years old, shared by Hinke, cheers! Thinnish, off-white, open and easily dissolving head lacing in disparate dots (and vanishing altogether in the end) over a cloudy, 'rusty' amber coloured beer with deep peachy hue. Rather unusual, but not unattractive aroma of dried grape peel, old wrinkled apples, glue and even slight varnish, soaking wet peanuts, stale artisanal cider, persimmon, 'Bretty' urine, old orange juice, vaguer hints of brandy, redcurrant, very old white wine, tomato peel, rusty iron, sherry vinegar. Estery onset, gooseberry, sour plum and grape impressions with a yoghurty lactic sourness setting in early on; softish carbonation, slick, slender and bit resinous or even glueish mouthfeel, rounded peanutty and lightly caramelly malt base, a bit more 'burly' than is classically the case in a modern blonde sour but dried by ongoing lactic tartness. Some retronasal 'rusty' oxidation in the end (unexpectedly) but not really disturbing, as well as hints of fermenting hay, grape peel, unripe plum and 'leathery' Brettanomyces effects, while down in the mouth, an earthy yeastiness builds up, harbouring a bitterish accent and drying, tannic aspects. Sherry vinegar pops up retronasally in the end. Bit oxidized already, strangely so for a sour ale bottled in 75 cl and less than three years old, but I could not be bothered by that: it is interesting to see how two prominent producers of modern sour ales work together and create something rather weird, but still enjoyable and fascinating - if you're into sour beers, that is.

Clear dark ochre to amber beer, practically no head. Aroma: caraml, dried fruits, alcohol, paint thinner, bit buttery, earthy, nail polish. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: wow, very bad, rubbery, plastic, earthy, unpleasant bitterness, some tannins, soft acidity, bit oily. Aftertaste: very dry, lots of tannins, chemical, burnt rubber, very unpleasant, bah!
