2021 edition. Pours dark redamber, smell is full, oaky, lambic funk. Raw. less pronounced fruits. Taste is full, intense funk, oak (tad buttery) . Very decent, to my surprise.

Draught Very even, dense pale pink head over fully cloudy terra cotta beer. Delicate fruit aromas, maybe red berry. I'd guess strawberry rather than cassis - which usually is quite specific in aroma. Again a very sour one, lactic acid and fruitacids. Various fruitflavours, strawberry, pineapple, berries. Ultra tart, acidthinning and -burn. Feels reasonably carbonated. As the Myrtille, quite sharp and the fruitflavour is not really outspoken let alone specific. Even stranger, almost no trace of typical lambic features.

5/IX/20 - on tap @ Tilquin, BB: n/a (2020-852) Thanks to ElManana+1 for driving and sharing today’s beers!
Cloudy bright red beer, small to no head, non adhesive. Aroma: bit fruity, sour berries, funky, dry, nice brett notes. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: very dry start, pretty bitter, quite some tannins, berries, blackcurrant bitterness, nice funkiness, lovely acidity. Aftertaste: dry finish, fruity, good stuff, berries, more bitter blackcurrants, dry, lovely stuff!
