Bottle at the pre-Borefts tasting, Den Haag, 2016. Poured a murky orange Amber. The aroma is acid citrus. The flavour is moderate acid sour with a big yeast bitter fruit palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation.

Dry-hopped (with Hallertau) and spiced (with rosemary) sour ale from this highly acclaimed young Dutch sour specialist, at 1st Lambic & Sour Sunday in Vichte. Irregular, moussy, off-white head, cloudy ochre blonde robe with golden hue. Unusual but delicious aroma of fresh rosemary - herbal and floral at the same time, also somewhat reminiscent of elderflowers, lavender, very old fennel seed and camomile, goat cheese, yoghurt, dry white wine, lemon zest, white currant. Very fruity onset, lots of unripe stonefruit, yellow plum- and gooseberry-like, white grape peel wryness but softly so, soft soapy and bready middle upon which the sour fruitiness continues unabated until it meets the wonderful herbal character from both the rosemary and the dry-hopping, aromatically filling the finish completely, while below a lemony sourness dries the mouth. Interesting and original idea perfectly executed to a very idiosyncratic, lush, herbal, even softly spicy, hugely aromatic sour - what a gem...
