0.375l bottle, huge thanks Jana for sharing with Adam, Jozefina, Peter and me. Reddish body. Sourish minerally blackcurrant aroma, bit funky. Sourish, minerally lovely blackcurrant profile, light funk, lovely tartness, well balanced, good one by all means!

Cloudy deep red to brown. Moderate off-white head. Funk, barnyard, autumn leaves, black currunts, vinegar. Bone dry. Very sour. Some old hop along. Good. Better than good.

Bottle, 6%. Great aroma, acetic and complex with a powerful blackcurrant aroma. Seemingly clear deep red colour. Very small whitish head. The flavour is very acidic, but there is a lot of fruit in it. Not dry as such, but more acid than sweetness. Good acetic notes, lots of blackcurrant. Acetone finish. Bites my throat a bit. Very low carbonation. Very good.

Bottle. Pours slightly hazy dark ruby with airy light pinkish head. Clear aroma of lambic yeast and fruit, with mild malty touches. Dry, vinous flavour with notes of currants and dusty and estery touches and malty hints. Dry aftertaste with estery and dusty notes. Low carbonation, but that is not a problem here. A nice one.

Cassis, some grapefruit. Not sure this bottle preserved well, as there was no gas on popping cork. Ruby red pour, no head. Tart finish. Bottle.
