At ratebeer best pours out amber pink if that makes since. Nose is nice strawberries which is very tuff to do, oak and some sour funk. Taste is more of the nice berries a little sweet and a lot acidic.

Bottle at RBBest. Aroma is strong strawberry with a touch of barrel. Body is nicely sour, round and soft. Shortish palate, but extremely balanced. Very nice.

Small, fast gone head over hazy orange-amber beer. Red fruit, vinous, lactic acid, wood. Sour, lactic taste with a mild strawberry flavour. Wood, vanilla, oak. Light body, acidburn, long-lasting sour-fruity flavour. Unbelievably good, the description does not reflect its true value.

Waxed up 750. Fun beer. Kind of waxy jam, can’t tell its strawberry. Very fruit pit aroma. Flavor is just slightly tart, heavy body with jammy essence. Light tart aftertaste.

Rare Barrel tasting @ Malt Attacks, Brussels, thanks Pierre for sharing the bottles. 75cl, ambrée trouble, qcq sédiments - de fraise?. Arôme offre un somptueux bouquet de fraise tout en conservant le côté terreux et sauvage du fruité. Retrouve encore ce bouquet de lacto-brett en rétro. Palais est ici aussi très - puckering - avec ce côté tart - aigrelet fort prononcé. Le rajout de fraise reste bien présent et donne un caractère fleuri et agréablement bien fruité à la bière. Le tout est sec avec cette impression de purée de fruit au fini. Retrouve aussi le boisé - chêne qui se prête bien aux notes terreuses de la fraise.

Tasting at Matt’s
Cloudy amber color, small head. Funky aroma of malt, old cellar, feet, yeast, fruity, apricots, light strawberries; a bit original, overall interesting. Too much carbonation; smooth and lean mouthfeel; quite sour, but not supported by enough body. Some acetone spoils the experience.
Great aroma, not convincing flavor.
