Bottle shared at Mikkeller Vik, Copenhagen - golden pour with almost no head. Tart sour fruity with some light citrus accents, notes of lemon, some white grape, horseblanket, light funky notes, tart fruity finish. Lovely.

Bottle - Nice funk and light petrol. Clearish gold with a decent white head. Light soured lemon, creamy and a touch of sourness. Well balanced and nice.

375ml bottle at Kump's during non-Belgian lambics tasting. Pours a hazy golden with a weak white head. Aroma is earthy, horse blanket, very gueuzy. Similar taste. Very dry. Quite good.

375mL bottle, pours a clear golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of wild funky critters and some oak. Flavour reveals a lot of wild yeast complexity, dry oak, and light acidity. Light acetic character. Very wild and oaky. Excellent.

Bottle thanks to Kurt! Pours clear golden, small white head, dissipates quickly, some lacing. Aroma is huge on lemons, mineral water, oak, funk. Flavor is medium tart, huge lemon again, light bretty funk. Medium body. Not at all what I was expecting out of this brewery or this beer. No nuance whatsoever. Based on reviews I am gonna hafta assume I got a bum bottle.

Thanks James for sharing the bottle! Poured into a snifter showing moderately filtered white lacing with golden yellow hues. The nose is bretty with notes of horseblanket. The palate is medium bodied and moderately carbonated. Moderately tart and lightly acetics with light flavors of lime and apricot.
