Bottle. Deep brown, a beige head is soon at the rim. Vinous aroma with chocolate, bread, dried and stewed fruit, vinegar, spices, the forest floor. The sourness and acidity that are only hints in normal Oerbier are more pronounced here but softened by oak and never sharp.

Bottle from HoTM I think. It pours clear ruby - brown with a frothy white cap. The aroma is sweet - sour, tart, tangy, plenty of jammy berry, raspberry, bramble, strawberry, crab apple jelly, cherry cola, Dr Pepper, vinous, red wine, oak tannin, gummy candy, musty, damp oak and a hint of funk. The taste is crisp, dry, crunchy fruits, vinous, juicy, tangy, raspberry, strawberry, cherry, bramble, cranberry, granny smith apple, sour candy, sherbet, tangfastics, tannin red wine, cherry cola and some pleasantly warming alcohol presence. Finish is dry, warming and full of tangy berry. Medium body, moderate carbonation and velvety mouth feel. Absolutely top tier. Vibrant and has great depth. Delectable.

330 ml bottle. 2023 vintage. Replacing 2010 review. Pours an orange/brown with light head. Aromas of toffee, oak, dark fruit, subtle woody red wine and soft wheaty malt. Flavors follow same with a little more wine sweetness. Very nice balance without the balsamic vinegar notes of many old brune. Very good.

330mL bottle at Lambik-O-Droom. Pours dark brown with a beige head. Dark toffee and sweet liquor barrels on the nose. Flavour has dark dried fruits, dark red wine, some dry wood. There's a tartness that I don't love. I think I prefer the regular version.

dark brown pour with a full beige head. Aroma is a tart cherry/wild raspberry, mixed in with some wood, and funk. Man i love the funk. The flavor is tart, and finishes slightly bitter. More of the tart fruit with some mild malt notes. This is a really nice beer, not what i was expecting. Its like a lambic/saison/belgian strong hybrid.

Запах породистый, приятный. Что то между Бельгийским и кислым элям. Вкус очень тяжелый, даже слишком. Также пиво безумно газированное. Из из этой крепости и тяжести слегка теряется сам вкус, который весьма приятен. Чувствуются ягоды, квашенная кислота и кислота яблок. Хотя при этом мне показалось что в этом пиве кислота вкуса слишком велика.
