A very good choice for those who are not keen on a typical beer taste. Very easy to drink and very refreshing. Yuzu is a Japanese lemon. During brewering, only the peel is used to steep inside the Lambic.

Bottle thanks to Squiggs. Pours a cloudy yellow with small white head. The aroma is yeast and strong dough. Slick body, citrus and dough, earthy, decent.

Bottle: Poured a clear amber color lambic with no carbonation. Aroma of heavy funky notes with barnyard notes and tart lemony notes are also perceptible. Taste is a nice mix of heavy funky notes with some barnyard notes and sour/acid lemony notes. Body is about average with no carbonation as it is usually the case with lambic. Drinkability is low with weird sour and heavy funky mix.

Flaska från SB, vintage 2015. Halvdisig guldfärgad med liten vit krona. I princip helt stilla. Ganska sött, nästan parfymig/tvålig med väldigt zestig yuzu-ton i doften. Samma sak i smaken med en ganska lätt, snäll syrlig ton. Ganska torr. Den zestiga yuzun verkligen genomsyrar smaken, nästan lite skarp. Drar åt citrusolja. Först i bottensatsen som syran kommer fram lite mer ordentligt.

Bottle. Etre Gourmet. 2016 on front label. Soulless looking gold colour. No head. Nose has picked onion vinegar and cardboard. Bit of a wet leather thing. Taste is acidic and bitter. Oily, depressing mouthfeel. Tastes old as you like. Can’t be bothered. Grim.

At a tasting, thanks, almost no head, quite clear dark orange color, light lemon aroma with dominant oxidised notes and a hint of mustard, lemon and oxidised flavor with some acetones, strong but too heavy sourness. Drinkable but feels old.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Tom L's place. Thanks Tom L. Clear golden. Oxidation, yuzu, candy, faint funk, lots of oak, a bit of ginger, acidic, a bit sweetish, lemony, a bit of apple, medium-bodied. Nice.

Bottle, vintage 2015. Aroma is thyme, rosemary, sage, lots of spices and herbs, tangerine, wet cellar. Taste is more of the same, lemony. Oily mouthfeel. Quite interesting, but weird.

Aroma is sage, rosemary, mandarin, tomato, slight sour mealy stuff. Taste is intense sour mandarin with lots of herbs. Some wood stuff. Very mealy on the tongue again. Would pour this on my pizza. I like it.
