Clear copper beer with a huge cream-coloured head, fed by fine carbonation. Sharpish nose, with a sugar-like aroma, reminding me of the old style filtered 'gueuze', even sweetened, and aromas of thyme, laurel, rosemary. Again the above: as a commercial gueuze enriched with green herbs. Mellow, and in the taste the sweetening is less obvious. Rosemary- and other herbflowers. Light body, partly due to acidthinning, soft carbonation. Not exactly a great sour.

Bottle shared in Watford - thanks to Dave. Pours unclear red-gold with a big, billowing off-white foam head. Lightly sweet, some old leathery berries, wood, earth, grass. Light to medium bodied with lively, massaging carbonation. Lightly drying finish, more leathery berries, orange peel. Tasty gear.

Bottle shared at the watford tasting 11/03/2022. Thanks to Wingman for this one. A hazed amber orange coloured pour with a lasting beige cap. Aroma is autumnal leaves, grass, brown leaves, hint of vanilla, waxy, mellow funk, vinous funk. Flavour is composed of airy, prickly, tart lemon juice, autumnal leaves chalky. Palate is dry airy carbonation, harsh sour, interesting, little bitty.
