Bottle (from Pothouse). Pours red. Aroma is sour raspberries, funk, vinegar, hint of acetone. Flavor is sour, vinegar, intense acetone, corked wine, raspberries. Overall: seems like good idea/base, but the intense acetone (infected? bad cork?) turns it really undrinkable. This has nothing to do with good beer/lambic period.

Bottle. Nose is vinegar, oak, cheese, dough, green apple, lemon, raspberry tea, sherry, red wine vinegar. No head, very flat. Taste is overpoweringly acidic, vinegar, marzipan, raspberry, lemon, more acid, green apple, cranberry, vanilla brie in the very very acidic finish. Mouthfeel is flat and battery acid.This is the first lambic that I?ve ever struggled with acid and it detracts. According to Tim Webb, this is a barrel by barrel proposition, but this really isn?t good which is a shame from such good brewer.

Many thanks to Erzengel for sharing! Pours hazy orange reddish colour. Aroma of quite sweet raspberries, wood, yogurt. Taste of quite tart rasperries, after that sweet fruity, ripe raspberries, yogurt, some wood, complex and good!

Bottle from "the bottle shop" in London. Extrem sour acid nose. The beer, absolutely flat, starts very acid sour. The raspberry fruits are there, but the body is so sour that it tastes salty. The fruity raspberries are lying as a light layer on top of the sour brew, extrem vinegar-like ending - tastes like a raspberry-vinegar, aged in oak barrels. The wood is there as well, but this extreme vinegar-like acidity kills all of the great fruit aroma, that is fragile left over. Way too much acid here.

Bottle. Hazy pink color with tiny white head. Aroma is raspberry, some yoghurt, barnyard, vinegar. Taste is sour raspberry, jammy, earthy, yoghurt, vinegar, wood, sour finish with the Hanssens-typical dirtyness. Flat. Harsh, but tasty! 2016 vs 2017 bottle tasted in July 2017. Aroma of the 2016 is amazingly clean and raspberry-like, even goes towards a Bokkereyder. Unfortunately, the flavour is quite uninteresting. The same applies for the fresh 2017, which is milkier.
