Bottle pour at Salon Piva, courtesy of the M/V crew. Erdekes es komplex ital, nagyon jol vegyiti a belga karaktert a visszafogott, de azert konnyeden fefedezheto funky brettel, es a fuszerezes csak raerosit minderre. Komplex, osszetett tetel.

hazy, murky orange color. lots going on in the aroma, coriander, yeast, orange, lemon, apple, a hint of mint. flavour is beautiful, sweetness with apples, and a slight tarness that is followed buy a loverly bitterness that reminds me a lemonade. as the beer wamrs up, its very much tart like a lambic. mouthfell is so smooth, and lots of lovely gentle carbonation. outstanding beer!

750 ml shared by Willrunforbeer. The aroma is Brett, cheesy, and has earthy hints. For a 10 year old brew this is amazing! Flavor has plenty of brett, funky, musty basement like flavors. Really nice!!

75 cl bottle. Orange color, pours an enormous frothy head. Strong aroma of citrus(lemon and grapefruit) and coreander, combined with other nondescript spices. Bitter, spicy flavor with grapefruit and coreander notes. Well made beer with a strong aroma, maybe a bit too spicy.
