No head after seconds; greenish-orange beer, flat. Sour nose, lactic, sour grapes, even akin to kettle sour. Closed flavour, bit vinous and spicy; flowery herbs; long lemony finish. Dry, bit wry, acidthinning. Again one not very complex; good - but this is indeed not more than inspired by lambic. Thanks to M & L V! 7/4/8/4/14

375ml bottle (thx, Carlos S.!) at Kump's during non-Belgian lambics tasting. Blended on 2016-09-29. Pours a hazy golden with a weak white head. Aroma is funky, slightly sweet, with much of grapes and some green apple notes. Similar taste with much of green grape notes. Very good.

375mL bottle, pours a cloudy golden with a small white head. Aroma is extremely fragrant, with an unusual grape character, nail polish remover, perfume and leather. Flavour is less cosmetic-like, with lots of white grapes, light funk, and light acetic character. What an unusual beast - the grapes really carry this. Not authentic, but it's a fun experimental sour.
