[2022? Vintage] 750mL bottle. Pours clear blonde, murky once the sediment is added. Nose has notes of old wood, must, wet leather. Flavour is lightly acidic with old wood, some leather; very musty. Losing a bit of it's carbonation at this point. Complexity and mustiness deepen as it opens up. Solid gueuze-style.

750ml @ Ryan's shared with Phill.
Aroma: funky, some minerals, noticeable oak, notes.
Taste: along the same lines, moderate carbonation, oaky, some fruity notes (kinda apples?).
Overall: clean, crispy, quality, but still lacks that nice funky aggressiveness component.

Poured from 750mL bottle (thanks Derek & JF). Clear gold with very minimal white head. Nice funk with gentle tartness and minerality, a touch on the thinner side and could use some more carbonation (I did sit on this for about a year), but has some nice flavours, decent North American attempt at a Lambic.

Bottle: Poured a golden color ale with a medium size white foamy head with good retention and minor lacing. Aroma of funky ester with some Brett notes and light tart notes. Taste is also a mix of funky ester with some brett notes with light tart notes with some oak presence also noticeable. Body is about average with good carbonation. Enjoyable wild ale with a nice level of complexity.

Doux parfum sauvage au nez accompagné d’un léger fruité rappelant la pomme, la poire, l’ananas ainsi que toutes les caractéristiques fermières du style, mais tout en douceur. Le liquide est doré, presqu’ambré, moyennement voilé et couvert d’une mousse pétillante et éphémère. L’entrée de bouche se veut assez fruitée tout en conservant une base sauvage, chevaline et fermière. L’équilibre entre les deux est grandement apprécié. Des notes de pomme poire bien mure, des malts boulangers et légèrement miellés, un soupçon d’ananas légèrement acidulé, le tout sur une base fermière bien équilibrée, assurant une complexité exemplaire. Un parfait équilibre entre le funky et le fruité classe cette bière au rang de grand cru. Fortement appréciée ! O:8.67 V:2.92 G:8.70 C:4.25 G:18.29 T:42.83
