Bottle from Hopt. Aroma is grain, barnyard funk, tart stone fruits, oak, notes of peach, apricot. Flavour is tart and medium sour with a little sweetness thrown in. Finish is fairly dry, body is medium. Reminds me of Boon, not a bad thing!

Bottle shared at the CBJ BIG BOOSTY XMAS tasting, picked up from an online peddler whom I can't recall, 13/12/23. Moderately hazed orange amber topped with an off white cap that retains well. Nose is funk, herb, hedgerow, green berry must, straw. Taste comprises pissy green berries, funk, straw, lemon rind, light acidic bite, damp oak. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced puckering bite. Tidy stuff ... fairly crisp and clean.

Bottle shared at Craft Beer Junction - cheers! Pours mostly clear gold with a bubbly white head. Light sweet flavour with sharp acidity, lemon, pear, salty sweat. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation. Quenching finish, salty, more lemony tartness. Not bad.

Craft Beer Junction. Xmas bottleshare. A light haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, light and mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Airy malts, mildly sweet. Good guezey fruits, tart and bright and a little woody but always pleasing. Just a touch of aceticness on the finish. Nice.

The Bruery’s ‘Terreux’ department of sour beers has paid homage to the lambic tradition of Belgium’s Pajottenland before (see Rueuze, since 2012) but this is a more free and stronger take on the geuze theme – I have been looking forward to this one for months but figured a bit of cellaring could not hurt. Snow white ring of bubbles, open and quickly dissolving into – eventually – nothing; hazy ‘old golden’ robe with warm, pale orangey glow. Aroma of lime juice, sourdough, raw cucumber and raw rhubarb, green gooseberries, Granny Smith apple, lemon slices, old oxidized white wine, damp hay, damp wood in the background. Citric onset, very crisp and ‘green’, as if biting in a slice of lime or even lemon, with gooseberry and green grape associations too, but also fresh cucumber; softish fizz – in any case not geuze-like at all – with a slender, bit vinous mouthfeel. Lemony and cucumber-like ‘greenness’ and acidity all the way, green gooseberry or unripe grape popping up here and there but in all, remaining relatively low in esteriness; bready and cracker-like malt core, oaky tannins appearing in the end and adding dryness. The lemon juice sourness and crispness remains bright till the last drop – and though some may find the overall acidity a bit much (I probably could not finish an entire bottle myself), I liked the ‘sunny’ and joyful, refreshing crispness of this beer, all the more so because its considerable alcohol content never even gets in the way. If I would have tasted this blind, I would have estimated it at least two ‘degrees’ in ABV lower. AmLam indeed – by one of its specialists – and clearly not a lambic (let alone a geuze), for which it lacks funkiness, complexity and a certain ‘barnyard’ feel, but for those who are open to America’s ‘méthode traditionelle’, which in strictly American context is anything but traditional, this is a recommendable example. Perhaps its score here would have been higher without the association with ‘lambic land’: after all and for all my love for Pajottenland lambic, American sour ales, whether imitations of lambic or not, have acquired enough diversity and experience by now to no longer need the bond with actual lambic, in my view…

Excellent wild ale, sour and vinous and layered, with a moderate citric/berry tartness mixed with grape jam, oak, and a hint of funk. Wish the funk in the taste was as prominent as the funk on the nose, but still a good pint.

On tap at Bruery Terreux, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Nose brings out light funk and gentle grapes. Flavour is very vinegary, with lots of vinegar, a touch of funk, and a hint of oak. Way too vinegary, lacking any complexity. Crappy.
