Deux bouteille 75cl partagées avec Serge et Annick, le tout servi par 'sieur Tilquin lui-même et de son avis sa préférée et plus complexe de la série. Pour moi, toutes se valent, chacune avec son caractère.
Couleur sur le dorée, légèrement trouble, col épais finement crémeux blanc avec certaine retenue mais retombant lentement.
Arôme est frais, parfumé avec un effet de boisé, caveau, grenier, vieux cellier, grains et céréales le tout respirant des notes fruitées et florales plus en retrait qui viennent balancer le caractère plus marqué du lambic.
Palais arrive quand même à démçontrer toute la complexité apportée par un changement de pourcentage dans l'usage du lambic de 3 ans. Caractère du lambic qui oscille entre acidité et amertume avec un rappel légèrement fruité entre les agrumes et des notes plus vertes de terroir.
Complexité qui continuera à évoluer dans le temps - à voir ce que cela donnera dans 5, 10 ans voire plus.
Sweet apricot and sour apple notes galore, delicious funk.

Flaska från SB. Disig gyllengul vätska med medelhögt skum som snabbt lägger sig. En drickvänlig ganska snäll gueuze med syrliga äpplen, citrus, strå, lite funk och lätt beska. Mycket gott

Bottle shared at CBJ - big thanks to Dan. Pours faintly hazed, rich gold with a small, foamy white topping. Light sweet flavour with sturdy acidity, pale wood, mild citric bite, low funk. Light bodied with massaging carbonation. Bone dry finish, quenching, more drying pale wood, moderate acidity, a little grass and citrus peel. Sound.
