Bottle from Vinspecialisten, Aalborg. Light hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma is sweet, malty, light white grapes, barnyard and wood. Flavor is medium sweet and rather acidic. Dry and rather acidic finish. 191023

Light pale haze. Leathery, mellow riesling character. Smooth, gentle lambic.

A taster shared with Josh, Matt, Phill, and Ryan during FHF with priceless Rachel's (yup, again!) help in organizing all the mess with glasses. Appearance: hazy blonde. Aroma: nice funk and fruity notes. Taste: same. Overall: good, maybe a bit too dry anda bit acidic.

Bottle. Hazy yellow golden. Bright funk, subtle grape. The Riesling is there but the meerts is more prominent. Maybe less funky than last year? Love it.

375mL bottle, pours a clear blonde with a tiny white head. Aroma brings out fairly pungent white grape skins, barnyard funk, some musty grape, and light earthiness. Flavour is moderately tart, with plenty of white grape skins, light-to-medium acidity, and a touch of funk. Dry, earthy vinous and gently acidic finish. Pretty good for second usage grapes — it's a bit muted — and nowhere close to their regular Oude Riesling.

375 ml bottle, 2021 vintage. Golden body, with a tiny head. Aroma of rustic funk, grapes, wood, Tastes similar, with more citrus. Medium, slick mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation. Finishes dry, moderate acidic, funky, citric, a bit wooden. Beautiful, rustic funk, combined with fresh grapes and some barrel notes. Perfectly balanced, drinks very elegant. Score: 8 / 4 / 8 / 4 / 17

Bottle: Poured a golden color lambic with a small size foamy head with limited retention and not much lacing. Aroma of funky ester and some oak presence with light vinous notes. Taste is a mix of tart notes with some funky ester and some vinous riesling notes. Body is about average for style with low carbonation. Nice fruited lambic.

Bottle. Deep gold, a white head never really forms. Aroma is very gueuzey with what could be grapes or gentle oxidation, lots of oak. Low carbonation, slippery. Sour with old lemon, grapes, the barn, heaps of oak. Autumnal, elegantly tired.
