Earthy, smooth and funky with some musty apricot notes, intense sourness, acidic notes, hints of tartness and farmyardy notes. A bit unbalanced

On tap at The Magnet, pours a hazy bright orange amber with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of bright apricots, gentle acidity, and subdued funk. Flavour is quite acidic, with plenty of bright, juicy, tart apricots, light-to-medium funk, and some mineraly notes on the finish. Tart, moderately acidic finish. Very nice but definitely not among Tilquin's greatest.

Doesn't look great - oxidized apricot colour. No head. Has a juicy apricot character, tart and somewhat dry. Good acidity, balanced fruit, mild leathery funk.

6/IX/24 - on tap @ Tilquin brewery (Bièrghes), BB: n/a (2024-841)
Pretty clear dark yellow to light orange beer, small creamy off-white head, pretty stable, a bit adhesive. Aroma: funky, lots of wood notes, a bit earthy, musty, walnuts, mildew, mouldy, a bit fruity, little cheesy, lemony touch. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: a bit watery, light, soft acidity, pretty bitter, lemony, nice, dry, some tannins, more bitterness. Aftertaste: woody, tannins, apricot pits and peel, some yellow apricot, nice soft acidity, decent stuff, but a bit watery when I tried this after the clementine version.
