10/V/25 - 37.5cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker), shared @ ElManana+1’s place, BB: 7/II/34 (2025-465)
Little cloudy orange beer, small creamy white head, unstable, dissipates quickly, non adhesive. Aroma: nice, very earthy, lots of brett, woody notes, slightly fruity, some peaches. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: good acidity, lemony, very acidic, dry, woody, quite some tannins. Aftertaste: spicy, a bit lemony, dry, very earthy, wood notes, quite peppery. Ok, but not great?

Bottle from Dranken Vandewoude and drunk with Nelson. Hazy deep gold colour thin white head. Proper funk aroma
Hops lemon and farmyard on the aroma. Which is excellent. Flavour is stunning. Cereal lemon finish is more lemon .quite a sharp lemon without being too acidic. Excellent beer.

Good white head over veiled ochre-golden beer, well-carbonated. Sulpur, putteke, horseblanket, lemonrind, white asparagus, not-quite-ripe pears. Almost sweet - again these pears; then horseblanket and farmyard, lemony. Acidburn and -thinning, but all in a very mild way. Good carbonation. Excellent gueuze. Too bad we couldn't compare it directly to the 40-60. Txs to Stef!

Bottle at Moeder Original, next to the 40-60. Clear golden, small head. Mineral funk, lemon, caramel, oak. Has a bit less caramel and full vanilla oak than the 60-40. This is more crisp. Soft mint and gooseberries. Medium sour, less sweet, barely bitter. Crisp medium bodied. Nice, like basically every Tilquin. Maybe the 40-60 is a tiny bit better, but they're both lovely beers.

375mL bottle at Moeder Lambic Fontainas, pours a mostly clear golden with a small white head. Aroma is full of barnyard funk, leather, and some hay. Flavour is dry and somewhat washed out compared to the 40-60, with leather and hay in good combo.

375mL bottle at Moeder Lambic Fontainas. Pours murky blonde with a white head. Lots of barnyard funk and a bit of wax on the nsoe. Flavour has a nice funky yeast profile, some barnyard, some herbs. Very nice. The 40-60 was a bit better though.
