Sweet, robust, with a balanced tartness. Pouring a creamy orange, the addition of lactose provides the backbone for a smooth, easy drinking sour. Perfect for the burgeoning spring weather.

Jun 1, 2019. Murky orange, diminishing off-white head. Apricot yoghurt, fresh apricot, light stone fruit aromas such as cherry, light candy, light acidity presence, no hop or malt aromas. Very juicy, slightly sour, fresh fruit, meaty apricot, tart fruity finish. Light to medium body, moderate carbonation, very refreshing. A very good and an interesting sour, no mistakes.

33cl can @ Niamey craft beer tasting, merci Richard. BB 04/03/2020. Orange, pas de col. Arôme est plaisant, immédiatement marqué par des notes d'abricot, rétro fin citronné, effet 'tart' reste assez discret tant l'abricot est plus présent mais sans être surfait. Pointe de malt perce discrètement en rétro. Palais est léger et crisp, abricot présent ajoutant une petite note adoucie avec un effet un peu purée. Funk léger tout comme le caractère 'tart'. Idéal pour l'été avec un alcool sous 4%.

Can, 0.33l. Hazy orange pour, thin soapy white layer on top. Little to no lacing. Strong yeasty sour nose with solid fruity background. Apricot and citruses, really nice. Thin body, medium carbonation. Pleasantly fizzy mouthfeel, nice and refreshing. Sour taste with just the right amount of tartness. Aroma of malt, yeast, apricots, lime. Herbal notes in the background. Candy. Short to medium finish, sour. Pretty good sour.

330ml can @ Chez Sophie. Pours unclear glowing orange, frothy white top. Pleasant apricot and lactic aroma. Taste is as expected really, moderate lactic sour with a gentle apricot presence, distant salt, overall quite refreshing & well rounded.
