Bottle, 750 ml. Courtesy of kajser27, shared with him and Miro B. Hazy brown almost no head. Caramel, dried fruit, vinegar, aceto, tad sweet, quite sour, puckering. Medium bodied. Very unusual, but works. Sort of.

Pours unclear redbrown, no real head. Smell is full, 'glue' like, tart, typical red ale scent. Very vinegar forward. Taste is full, tart, oaky, malty. bit to acetic. Bit 'aged' factor as well.

23 February 2019. (Tasting formerly known as) RBBWG. Cheers to all, thanks Kraddel for the hospitality! Vintage 2015. Hazy 'dirty' brown with a quickly thinning, off-white head. Aroma of varnish & nail polish remover, luckily making way for vinegar, lactic acid, red berries, chocolate powder, wood, peanuts, unripe plum. Taste is medium to heavy funky sour, lots of unripe plums mixed with vinegar & yoghurt, touch of yeast; light spicy bitter middle brings overripe pear & varnish, rendering it quite phenolic, a woody accent comes to the rescue before finishing dry, tart, very sour, more wood, vinegar & acid with some warming port- or red wine-like alcohol. Medium body, oily texture, soft to flat carbonation. I guess this didn't age very well, definitely more of an Oud Bruin, and a tad too sharp at that.

23/02/2019 - 75 cl botte shared on BBGG @Kraddel's place. Thick hazy light brown, no head. Nose is sharp boozy, nail polish. Taste is sour red fruits, Oud Bruin touch, sharp nail polish. Damn, was horrible for me. The nail polish touch overpowered all the rest for me. Hurts but really horrible for me.

23/II/19 - 75cl bottle from the brewery, shared @ 1st Belgian Beer Geek Gathering (formerly known as Belgian Ratebeer Gathering), BB: n/a - (2019-274)

Rather cloudy pale brown to dirty rust red beer, no head. Aroma: lots and lots of acetone, chemical impression, bit spicy, peppery, nutmeg, sourish impression, varnish, meh. MF: soft to no carbon, medium body. Taste: super acidic, no really very sourish, oxidized, more acidic, lemon juice. Aftertaste: spicy, vinegar, nutmeg, cardboard, lemon, more oxidation going on. Well, this might have been good, but it's definitely not good any longer. Way too sour and too old as well.
