Small size sample from bottle, poured by the man himself: Jean Van Roy. 2018 bottling. Pours a hazy golden colour. No discernable head. Aroma's are sourish, funky and woody. Retronasal there's even some additional sweetness, albeit very light. Flavour is mild sour. Light bodied. Long tartish finish.

2018 bottle. Hazy golden color with white head. Aroma is fresh barn, a touch cheese, white wine, white pepper, great complexity. Taste is barn, cheesy, light wine, vineous barrel funk, peppery bite in the back. Silky mouthfeel with high, but fine-bubbled carbonation. Very tasty, amazingly mellow!

0,75l from bottle at the brewery. Yellow rather hazy color, small white head. Smells spices, grassy, citric, peppery, nice juicy grape notes. Very nice smell. Full body, soft carbonation, slick mouthfeel. Tastes dry, peppery, citric, grassy, grape skins, spices, light joghurt. Finishes dry and lightly sour with spices, peppery and some tannins. Very nice, loved the smell, taste is a bit on the thin side, very young. 8, 4, 7, 3, 16
