26/9/2022. Tap at Zwanze 2022 at the Freetrade Inn, Newcastle. Pours clear deep ruby red with a short lasting foamy pale pink head. Lovely raspberry, vanilla and blueberry aroma, lightly funky, jammy, slightly medicinal. Super tart and sweet mix. Light acidic finish. Very nice.

Armsby draught, 9/24/22. Clear raspberry. Small, pinkish head, low to moderate retention. Deeply juicy, rich red raspberry is augmented by the vanilla giving it a very high intensity. Clean, lower funk with lower acidity. Definitely Brett lingering long on the finish. Soft, vanilla-forward with juicy raspberry and tart Brett on the finish. Malty/wheaty with moderate sweetness and good attenuation. Tartness lingers pleasingly. More fruit and vanilla than pure unadulterated lambic funk, but still a nice change of pace and balanced with the adjuncts.

Poured from 750mL bottle (bottled 24 June 2020). Deep red with small off-white head. Blueberry upfront followed by tart raspberry and vanilla. Acidity is fairly bracing, but doesn't linger with the sweetness from the vanilla.

On tap at Playalinda for Zwanze Day. Deep garnet pour with a pink head. Tart berry bouquet. Muddled mixed up sour berry notes dominate. I don’t really get the vanilla and the barrel characteristics are somewhat muted. Good body and mouthfeel.
