Bottle at home. Clear golden. Very nice mix between lbic and the pepper which has almost a basilicum like aroma. A bit ropey mouthfeel and look.

0.75l bottle from Base Camp, shared with the Ravenfest VIP crowd. hazy golden body, thick off-white head. Pepper dominates the lovely citrusy, somewhat funky aroma. The taste continues along those lines - herbal, bretty, pepper notes, juicy, light tartness, bitterish finish. Good stuff bordering on great stuff, as expected!

Bottle purchased at Monk's in honour of brother's anniversary: pours light orange with nice head. Aroma is peppercorn, flowers, lemon verbana, light funk. Taste is peppery, lightly sour. Tingly. Great aftertaste. This had a very unique taste and I was there for it.

Good but this isn't the easy drinakble lambic you can take a whole bottle any time of the day. The main thing missing is the refreshing aspect of a great lambic.

Tap at Be.Re., Rome, Italy. Pours loaded gold, with almost no foam. Aroma is fruity and Himalayan pepper, orange peel. Body is average, with almost no carbonation. Taste is medium sour, with some bitterness and peppery feeling. Final is still pretty intense, pungent.

Bottle, bottled 26? May 2025. Color: Lightly hazy orange amber, dense off-white head. Aroma: Peppery, spicy, fruity lime and subtle funk. Taste: Clearly present yet subtle peppery, spicy notes, fruity lime and stonefruit, earthy, funky hints and some oak wood. Nice spicy and refreshing tart fruit combination from start to finish. Dry-ish, peppery mouthfeel at the finish. Very well balanced. Medium body, below average carbonation. Moderate to over moderate tart. Very nice.
