Bottle at 3F. Rich’s 50th do. Hazed, slightly dirty gold. Very decent lasting white foam. Lovely floral herb here. Soggy leather. Mineral. Taste is semi sweet with a modicum of tartness. Dry and lean on the palate. Light tart finish. Went particularly well with a fatty sausage and some salty nuts.

Pours darker, cloudy blonde. no real head. Scent is mild, less expressive than expected after seeing how much it amped up the german oak in the blend. Taste is tart, dry, not very expressive, to my surprise. Fullbodied geuze, dry tart ending. Not bad alt all, just less specific than expected. Tad tannic.

750mL bottle at 3 Fonteinen lambik-o-droom, pours a cloudy dark orange with a small white head. Aroma is full of dry wood, earthy funk, and a touch of old leather. Flavour is dry, woody, and earthy, with plenty of old, leather funk, gentle acidity, and dry woody earthiness. Dry, earthy and woody. Nice wood character. Good stuff.

750ml shared with Ryan and Phill and an American gang. Appearance: hazy golden with a white head. Aroma: somewhat like a dry, old, spicy wood, a bit dusty, funky, minerally. Taste: along the same lines, dry aftertaste. Overall: pretty good.
