Draught at the brewery, dink pour
Pale red colour, slight haze. It smells very weird: feet, soil, plastic, light berries. Good body, moderately sour, but with some acetic acid in the front, and doughy yeast later; berry juice, alcohol. Chaotic.

100mL bottle. Pours clear orange. Aroma has tons of fresh raspberries, some bugs, and a bit of funk. Flavour has a great strong ale base with the wild yeast and raspberries well-integrated. Just enough fruitiness and acidity to elevate the beer without dominating. Excellent.

On tap at Dageraad, pours a mostly clear amber red with a small white head. Aroma reveals bright raspberries, light tartness, and a nice wild yeast expression. Flavour combines the bright, lightly tart raspberries very harmoniously with the wild yeast; there�s a light spiciness, and slightly above average carbonation. This one works really well. Excellent.
