Tap at 100 piv. The sweetness already managed to dissipate, fermenting out. The remaining moderately sour character is also moderately complexly funky in a typical lambic way. Easy drinking, very good.

Serving type: 'kn goonsack ay. 3.1l. Unclear amber, not much of a head. Aroma of lemon, breadcrust, barn funk, bracken. Lightish bodied, still with a lacto slipperiness. Not sweet, just a memory of sticky breadcrust. Mellow sourness with oldish lemon, cherry stones, tingly bracken at the end. Not huge depth of flavour but lovely inviting palate. For drinking not sipping.
