Sample glass from 5 liter bag in a box, directly from the 400 liter Bordeaux red wine 1st use barrel, brewed in october 2016. Thanks to Aniek from De Bierbrigadier Nijmegen. Color: Orange golden, no head. Aroma: Moderate tart, fruity, hints of wine, sherry. Taste: Nice balance of sweet, sour and bitterness, small and fast disappearing acidic vinegar notes in the throat. Fruity notes of grape and berries. Funky hints. Red wine hints, wood. Dry-ish mouthfeel. Medium body, no carbonation. Although this is a base beer, it is already pretty complex on it's own. Very nice.

150 ml. draft @ Foeders.Totally clear orange, few bubbles. Nose is surprisingly spot-on lambiek funk, not super rustic but nice orange peel, dried funk & oak. Bit watery, flat but with very good mellow non-rustic orange peel funk, lots of oak, super, bit watery but overall very good like an old lambiek given no raw edges to this this. Absolutely wonderful.
