Orange-amber beer, well-carbonated to just off-white head, very dense and leaving textbook lace. Sourish nose, and at the same time, smelling of artificial sweetener. Bretty, lactic acid, slight smell of unripe fruit. Caramel taste, alleviated by some organic acids. Again I get a pineapple flavour. Very little, if any sourishness in the taste; slight oxydation traceable retronasal. Faint artificial taste, even with a plastic component, which makes it cloying, dry and wry at the same time. Compared to the Van Roost original, or even its Brabrux heir, this is a bl**din’ InBev disgrace.

(Bottle 33 cl) Amber coloured beer completely lacking head. Dry and acidic - but not overwhelmingly so. Quite pleasant and quenching. Apparently this is a Brussels speciality - a blending beer of Lambic and Flemish sour. 050102

Amber brown, creamy off-white head. Some lace. Aroma has rye-bread, banana, vanilla and yeast. Mouthfeel starts metallic and has some kriek-type sweetness in the middle. Then turns sour with sourish aftertaste.

A clear dark amber beer with a small beige disappearing head. The aroma is sweet with notes of prunes and wood - a quite simple aroma. The flavor is sour woody - as a thin gueze with a thin body.

Amber colour, white quite homogeneous head. A little bit of small bubbles in the body. Malt and hop aromas. Sweet, little bit fruity sour flavour (lambik-like) in the beginning, little bit bitter in the end. I like this beer.
