The beer's color is a deep, deep red. It's powerful and very fruit-forward, but still maintains a nice, mellow balance between acidity and astringency.
We didn't have to look very far for a its new name... a blue fruit that makes a blood-red beer: Sang Bleu. Our friend Ammo has outdone himself once again, creating a superb new label to go with its new name.
Maceration of 2-year old lambic with blue honeysuckle.

0.75l bottle many thanks to Lore. Never heared about honeysuckle yet so I'm not sure how to look for this fruit. Beautiful ruby body with a huge pink head. Aroma and taste of hibiscus, red currant, hibiscus, lemon juice and even some saffron. Not so sour yet refreshing beer. Great one.

Clear ruby pour with a reddisch head. Aromas of vinegar, plum, prune, oak, apple, citrus - very rich and complex. Taste is apple, citrus, sour cherries, dark berries, some oak and grain as well. Very decent sour finish. Very enjoyable.

Хороший ламбик, есть умеренная кислинка от ягод, красная смородина, немного винограда, хороший баланс.

0.75 l bottle from 'Beyond Beer', bottled in April 2024. Hazy, ruby with a medium large, foamy, slowly diminishing, pinkish white head. Sweetish, sourish, rather fruity and slightly funky aroma of elderberry, honeysuckle apparently, blackberry and lemon with a touch of hay and oak. Gently sweet, medium sour, slightly bitter, rather fruity and a bit funky taste of elderberry, honeysuckle, oak, lemon, hibiscus, some leather and blackberry, followed by a medium long, slightly bitter, tart, fairly woody-dry finish. Medium body, gently astringent and moderately effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Extremely well-balanced, juicy and refreshing lambic. Perfect summer thirst-quencher, best fruit lambic I've had in a very long time!
