750mL bottle at 3 Fonteinen lambik-o-droom, pours a cloudy bright golden orange with a small white head. Aroma is very strange, with a strange BO/woody character upfront, old piano, and light funk. Flavour is very strange and dissonant with the nose, with strange funk, moderate earthiness, and a touch of pithiness. Acidic, oaky, BO-like finish. Not my favourite of the Speling Single Wood series but certainly the most unique. Interesting.

750ml shared with Ryan and Phill and an American gang. Appearance: hazy golden with a white head. Aroma: definitely German oak is in power here, but it's definitely less intense, than in the pure Duitse Eik. A bit of that spice from the acacia. Taste: along the same lines. Overall: good one.
