A perfect beer to enjoy before a meal. Sakura means cherry leaves in japanese. The leaves are steeped in salt for several months producing a highly perfumed aroma. In Japan, Sakura are also enjoyed as special sweets during spring time.

Flaske 375ml fra Vinmonopolet Tromsø - Sentrum. Drukket på Bergstua 22 Mai 16. Dobbeltkork! Den innerste har stempel fra De Troch Wambeek. Gyldengul. Lavt skum som varer litt. God blomsterduft. Smaken lett fruktig. Blir behagelig syrlig etter hvert.

Bottle 82 of 1000. Aroma is floral with a honey note and some light vegetable, leafy note. Some light oak and medium light tropical fruit notes. Some citrus as well. Pours a somewhat hazy, pale golden orange with a small, thin white head that recedes and lingers. Light lacing and faint legs. Flavor is moderately acidic with some light citrus and medium light tropical fruit. Moderate floral and honey notes. Some red apple as well. Moderate wet oak notes. Some leafy notes as well. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium low carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, an interesting beer, and I like the floral notes, but the leafy notes don’t quite work. the base lambic also doesn’t have a ton of funk either. Acidity is nice and not harsh at all.

Saurer Beginn mit gemüseartigen Aromen, kernig, Laub, etwas dumpf. Die Säure bleibt bestehen, bitter, harmonisch. Interessant, vollmundig und gelungen! 10/10/12/12/15/12

At Maakun’s. Biggun shared by Maakun. Cloudy/hazy golden with a ring of white foam. Flower petals, parfume, floweriness, flower, hay, vinegar, lime pulp, lime peels, unripe white grapes, almonds. Strong sour with fruity parfume sweetness. Always hard to say something useful about the body of a sour beer but the texture is piss quality mineral-like. Tasty stuff!

Bottle 2015 vintage, shared at home. Clear golden with small white head. Almonds, marzipan, cherry pits, berry juice, gooseberries, sour grains and grapes, light honey, sour cherries, sour red wine. Over medium sour. Medium bodied with low but fizzy carbonation. I have no idea what cherry blossoms taste like, but this is strong on almonds and sour cherries. Pretty good!
