Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma is fruit forward with balanced notes of cherries and red grapes. Light grape must and a bit of lemon. Light oak notes and faint phenolics. Pours a hazy red color with orange hues and a medium sized, medium thick, frothy, slightly pink head that recedes quickly and disappears. No lacing or legs. Flavor is slightly sweet with a moderate acidity that has a touch of sharpness to it. Moderately strong cherry and grape notes. Medium light lemon and faint phenolics. Light oak. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid beer but the underlying lambic is lacking in funk. This reminds me a lot more of an American sour rather than lambic.
Too acidic. 3.6

Bottle from etre gourmet. Pours red-amber. Aroma and flavor are sour, funk, cherries, sugar, oak, grapes, grape must, lactic notes. Overall: good, but feels young, although claiming to be 4 year old lambic. Maybe it's caused by the sugary grape must.
