A hazed golden amber ale with a very thin white head. In aroma, sweet fruity ground cherry, dark fruits, light tropical fruits, pleasant. In mouth, a nice sweet fruity mix of tart berries, pomegranates, light cherry certs, a tad chemical. On tap at l'autre oeil.

Tart, light pomegranate, very leathery tilquin base and full body. Not sure this fruit lends itself to beer, though.

On tap at Garden Path - Bellingham, pours a hazy golden orange with a small white head. Aroma is subtly sweet, with gentle pomegranate and some earthiness — not picking up much funk. Flavour is acidic, with juicy pomegranate, medium acidity, some bitterness, and buried funk. Don't think I've ever had a pomegranate lambic before; interesting attempt.

Tip Tap draught, 5/18/24. Clear bronze-golden. Smattering of white head. Juicy pomegranate but earthy as hell, even some leather. Lots of lactic, bit of acetic, low Brett. Almost a raspberry element. Strong earth, tart juice, plentiful lactic and light Brett. Pinch of acetic, good maltiness. Pretty challenging, much moreso than I expected. Thought it would be sweet and easygoing but it's nice and sour.
