Limited Edition Bottle from 2018. Many thanks to tderoeck. Znow mega jazda i kupaż wielu owocow do tego lezakowanie takze w beczce po winie. Tu w odroznieniu do Tankera estonskiego jest wiecej tej dzikosci, cukier zjedzony i przetrawiony. Czerwona barwa, rozowa pianka, taka szampanska. Marmolada wisniowa, malinowa konfitura, borowka brusznica z schroniska na Turbaczu, zorawina mrozona. Takie wrazenia. Na koniec dostaje ocet winny, ktory podbija kwasowosc tego lambika. Super.

375ml bottle from Hoppy Craft, St Omer. Pours a hazed, dull brownish red, fast receding white head. Aroma sees strawberries jump first out the glass, with the first sip seeing a melange of assorted hedgerow berries, prominent cherries with some red berry shades up the rear. Hanssen's trademark savage acidity is kept in check.. sharp stuff!

Bottle from Beerlovers Bar, Antwerp. Hazy deep red with a small white head. Aroma is sweet, malty, heavy cherries, raspberries, acetone, tart and barnyard. Flavor is quite sweet and very acidic. Dry and very acidic finish. A bit too much “In your face”. 120722
