LCRBM2: lemon aroma. Strong brett character. Horse blanket. Hoppy flavor, almost oily, like a mix of Orval and lambic. Oily mouthfeel. You really can’t taste the promised 9% ABV.

From a 33 cl bottle shared at home. Pours a cloudy gold with a thick off white head. Aroma of butterscotch. Flavors of butterscotch with some brett funk. Pretty subdued.

330 mL bottle as Reinaert Flemish Wild Ale. Pours a murky orangey golden with a large white head. Sour raspberry candy aroma. Slightly tart, somewhat dusty pale malts and some funkiness, some tart citrus and herbal flavor. It’s alright, but it has a way to go.

Bottle. Pours yellow with an enormous creamy head. Aroma is yeasty with brett, hay and whiffs of horse blanket. Full creamy body with soft but mouthfilling carbonation. Flavour is tart and yeasty with brett, farmyard, wood, camphor and kandi. Dry earthy finish.

11.2oz bottle at FFF. Not sure what version. Unfiltered orange-tan. Foamy white head, laces the glass well. Zest brett sourness. Barnyard mud. A touch brutal in a champagne way. Still maintains some nice luscious carbonation. Dry white wine notes. Approaching American sour test tube tones. Solid, but not perfect. Brett Tripel.
