750mL bottled 3/3/2023, drunk 7/31/25.
Clear, darker bronze-brass-golden with a firm, off-white head.
Fruity, soft, with mild lactic acid and nutty, crusty wheat. Minimal barrel/oak. Not very funky, per Tilquin, but some rustic notes, let's say. Mild berry, mild Brett. Good attenuation.
Soft, with a zesty lacto undercurrent propelled by light oak and tight carbonation. Bit of juicy brett, good tartness, but no funk. Lots of strawberry and lacto. For 7% abv, this is a lot weaker, waterier and such than most 5% abv lambics. Really not all that interesting of flavor. Brett, lacto, light wood, light berry, chewy/nutty wheat. Sure, it's clean and drinkable with no flaws, but this is not why I drink lambic (for the most part). Tilquin is such a head-scratcher of a brewery.
Great balance. Full and grainy with a delicate tartness and lots of woody dryness.

750ml at Dynamo shared with Travis.
Funk, horse blanket, bold body, some sweetness. Intense, sharp and bold, minerally. Fantastic!

750mL bottle at Moeder Lambic Fontainas, pours a cloudy orange, tiny white head. Aroma is full of wonderful barnyard funk, leather, horse blanket, and a touch of citrus zest. Flavour is complex, with plenty of barnyard funk, horse blanket, leather, and dry citrus zest. Wonderful funk character here. Fantastic.
