Poured from a bottle. Aroma is somewhat acidic with a light lemon note and some pineapple. Medium light sour stone fruit with some cherry, berry and prune. Light caramel malt presence with a light wine character and a bit of oak. Pours a slightly hazy, reddish copper with a medium sized, thick, slightly off-white head that recedes to a small film that lingers thicker on the edges. Medium light lacing and small legs. Flavor is moderately to fairly acidic with some light caramel and faint honey and toasted bread malt notes. Fairly fruity with light lemon and pineapple notes. Moderate grapes, figs, cherries and stone fruit notes. Light wine character with a lighter oak presence. Low bitterness. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium high carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a pretty nice beer and probably my favorite of the batch though I still ifnd the aroma on the Trois Dames version to be the best. This version has a nice, fruity acidity that works well with the sherry barrels. Some light malt notes are also well integrated. Pretty acidic, but not over the top.

750mL bottle, pours a hazy bright amber orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out various yeast types, with some tart fruits, a floral quality, and earthy sweetness. Flavour is complex, with toasted earthy notes, some nutty quality almost reminiscent of marzipan, and some tart red fruits. What a strange beer. Seems like they just threw random shit together and wondered what could come out, then sold the result. Decent.
