Bottle, 0.33l. Hazy orange golden color with large frothy off-white head and sparkling appearance. Aroma of tropical fruit, berries, wheat, brett, grape skin and white wine with some earthy hints. Taste starts with refreshing sour wheat and citrus, following is funky, grassy and herbal, mouthfeel is crisp and dry, while finish is medium bitter. Light to medium body, thin texture and lively carbonation in palate. Almost perfect...

330 ml bottle into tulip glass, best before 3/2/2021. Pours slightly hazy medium golden yellow color with a 2 finger dense and fluffy white head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass. Aromas of big tart lemon, lime, grapefruit, pineapple, orange peel, mango, melon, pepper, light pine, oak, wheat, cracker, hay, straw, light leathery funk, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/tropical hops, fruity/funky/spicy/acidic yeast, oak, and moderate pale malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big tart lemon, lime, grapefruit, pineapple, orange peel, mango, melon, pepper, light pine, oak, wheat, cracker, hay, straw, light leathery funk, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Moderate lactic tartness, yeast/tannic oak spiciness, and light pine/grassy bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of tart lemon, lime, grapefruit, pineapple, orange peel, mango, melon, pepper, pine, oak, wheat, cracker, hay, straw, funk, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/tropical hops, fruity/funky/spicy/acidic yeast, oak, and moderate pale flavors; with a great malt/tart/spiciness balance, and zero puckering/astringent flavors after the finish. Moderate dryness from tart/spiciness, lightly increasing through the glass. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderate crisp, acidic/grainy/bready, and lightly tannic balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5.5%. Overall this is a great dry hopped unblended lambic. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/tropical hops, fruity/funky/spicy/acidic yeast, oak, and moderate pale flavors; very smooth, crisp, and quite refreshing to drink with the balanced acidity. This was less acidic and more malty than others in the series, but still had great complexity all around. A very enjoyable offering.

Sampled from 0.33 l bottle from ’Prik & Tik Baelus’, best before April 2020. Slightly hazy, golden yellow with a white head. Sourish-fruity, slightly funky aroma of lemon, gooseberry, rhubarb, pineapple and some barnyard. Moderately sour, quite fruity and a bit funky taste of lemon, gooseberry, pineapple, rhubarb and some barnyard, followed by a medium long, slightly bitter, moderately tart and quite dry finish. Thin to medium body, medium tart and slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Very nice!
