From barrel @ the brewery. Pours slightly hazy light amber with barely any head at all. Clear, vinous aroma with touches of yeast and dust. Moderately dusty onset, leading to intense vinous notes and estery touches. No carbonation. Lingering vinous aftertaste. Good.

Re-rate: sample at the brewery: pours cloudy/hazy golden, no head. Fruity, quite sour, some wooden notes, funky, citrus, fruity. Dry finish. On tap as Single Barrel 1-Year Lambic at Moeder Lambic Fontainas. Golden colored with no head. Bit spicy and fruity and extremely sour. Interesting, but Iβm not sure Iβd order another one. 3.4

On tap @ CASK Pub and Kitchen, Pimlico. Golden orange, flat as flat can be. Scent of kumquat and sourdough. Taste is a citrussy sour, not as funky as a gueuze but more crisp and refreshing. Short finish and aftertaste. Worth a try but not earth-shatteringly complex like a blended lambic.

At the brewery. Golden lemon with no head. Aroma is dry wheat. Flavour is sour fruit, really drys the back of the mouth. Lingering dry bitterness, some wood in the finish. Very dry.

Draught @ Pikkulintu. Hazy golden, thin white head. Aroma has apple, earth, malt, sourness. Flavor has green apple, sourness, malt. Very dry finish. Apples dominates this. Not that intensive, but oh the drinkability.

Colour: golden-amber.
