Bottled [BB 07/2007]. Dark nut/ruby red-brown, good tan head. Lemony fruity aroma, not very strong. Fruity, prunes, dried fruits, not very full-bodied. Alcohol gives a bitter, lemony tickle. Could be more complex.

(bottle) Hazy brown colour with a big rocky beige head. Sweet-fruity and sour-vinegary aroma, also dusty yeasty with caramel. Sour and tart flavour, medium body, lively carbonated. Sour wheat malty taste with caramel and chocolate and a tart sweetbitter finish. The alcohol is barely detectable, but warming. I would call this one a Flemish Sour Wheat Bock. Good !

(Bottle 33 cl) By appearance it’s not particularly brown, more muddy, which is emphasized, when the last bit of the beer is poured. A remarkable sediment is hidden there. Has this sweet/sour flavor which is characteristic for some of the small Belgian breweries. I don’t know if this is a sign of quality, but it’s quite rustic. Nice light brown head which lasts all the way to the bottom. 240904

Slight gushing to huge yellow-brown head, creamy & persistent; red amber beer with very slight haze. Brown bread & faintly acetic nose. Bit fruity-yeasty, but always with a vinegary taint. Dark malts, some characteristic sweetness and roasted bitterness surrounding in the taste. But the acidity is still there, though it hovers around identification treshold - not expressly acetic, I mean. Bready is also still there -with black bread crust flavour. Iron in the head! Medium bodied, very slight alcohol warming. A "double" - another one. Not bad despite the acetic touch.

A red beer with a small beige head. The aroma is sweet hoppy with notes of spices. The flavor is slightly sour with notes of spices especially coriander. A very average beer.

Skortila had left a bottom of his bottle stand untouched in his room for one night, unnoticed. So i had the chance to taste this beer after it was 'aged' for 1 night at roomtemperature. I don't know if it affected the beer. Appearance was good. Aroma of candy sugar and rye, malty. Taste is sweet malts. Dry palate.

Bottled. Dark ruby and very lively with rich firm head. Fruity and strikingly vinous and a vague hint of lactic acid. Medium bodied with balanced sweetnes and light, sparkling mouthfeel. Some toffee and a lot of dry, well wooded red wine in the finish. Deliciously flavourful.
