Picture Pot is a blend of three brews produced in May/June of 2017. One wort fermented in our coolship before maturation in oak, the other two entirely in barrel.
We dry-hopped the resulting pale beer withwhole leaf Celeia, EKG and Amarillo.
Drink young for fresh hop aromatics. If aged, expect increasing brettanomyces funk.

Bottle from the brewery. Poured a hazy golden colour with a short-lived fizzy white head. The aroma is oaky, vinous, grapefruit. The flavour is moderate sour, with a fresh crisp, dry, oaky, herbal, vinous, grapefruit, grassy, apple palate. Medium bodied with lively carbonation.

0,15l from bottle shared at Arrogant Sour Festival 2022 by Iznogud, big thanks. Yellow murky color, small white head. Smells herbal, nettle, stone fruits, earthy, hay. Nice to very nice smell. Full body, soft carbonation. Tastes herbal, nettle, earthy, grassy, stone fruits, peppery. Finishes dry and lightly sour with notes of grass, stone fruits and herbal notes. Very good one, on the herbal side

12 February 2022. At Winter Belgian Beer Geek Gathering. Many thanks for hosting, Tim, and cheers to the whole crew!
Bottled: 4/2021. Hazy yellow, stable, foamy, white head. Aroma of funky stonefruit, green apple, mandarin, straw, sour grape, wood. Taste has sour stonefruit 'end', grape and mandarin peel, sweetish streak over bready maltiness. Tart, yellow-fruity finish, hoppy stonefruity, woody tannins and grape, bit funky. Medium body, creamy texture, soft carbonation. Elegant Sour, satisfyingly hopped.

75cl bottle @ Brewver Winter Gathering '21, thanks Eugene. BB 04/2026, bottled 04/2021.
Dorée, col épais blanc.
Arôme sur un nez finement malté repris de suite par un léger funk/bretts - petite touche poussiéreuse perçant en retrait avec cette impression de vieux grenier - le tout garde un côté presque de lambic.
Palais présente un bouquet correct sur le 'sour', finement fruité vert rappelant la groseille à maquereau, fini assez sec, agrumes - orange sanguine avec un fini restant très sec - limite copeaux / boisé.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Porter & Sons. Cloudy golden. Lots of oak, some whiskey, barnyard, fruitiness, some cider, sour, sharp, a bit of tangy bitterness, lemon rind, a bit acidic in the throat. Really good.
