Bottle shared @ Borefts Pre-tasting. Fluorescent red color, small off-white head with a slight pinkish hint. Smell and taste are both very sour, almost harsh, there’s a weird hint of cucumber in there, unripe sour fruits. Hmm I’m actually disappointed by this one. But I must admit, the bar was set high by Tommie Sjef himself.

Bottle. Murky purple color with white head. Aroma is spiced (cinnamon), cassis skin. Taste is more spicy, cassis skin, some yoghurt. Dry finish, medium carbonation. The spicing is quite irritating, it’s a bit too much if you ask me.

Bottle at the pre-Borefts tasting, Den Haag, 2016. Poured a murky reddish pink colour with a thin white head. The aroma is big red berry fruit, yeast. The flavour is moderate sour with a big fruit yeast, crisp, refreshing, doughy biscuit yeast palate. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation.

Sour ale by this young Dutch sour specialist, made with blackcurrant and brambleberries. Very thin, dirty off-pinkish, lightly lacing but quickly dissolving head over a beautifully deep, misty ruby red beer with a deep fuchsia hue. Rich and delicious aroma reveals more (ripe and stewed) blackberry than blackcurrant but a cassis aspect is certainly there, along with sweet cherry tomato, cooked rhubarb, red wine vinegar, unsugared yoghurt, fermenting hay, sour cream, goat cheese, purple gooseberries, plum pie. Crisp, sour onset with a puckering lemony acidity to it, a ton of blackberries again as well as somewhat more subdued, but noticeable blackcurrant, very estery, soft spicy notes, deep lactic yoghurty tartness drying the palate throughout, pleasantly bready or even crumble-like core, fruitiness goes on till deep into the finish with some retronasal funky notes. This is so rich in tart red fruit that, in combination with the sweetish bread core, it reminds me of old-fashioned, artisanal fruit desserts, like the rhubarb pie my grandmother used to make... Stunning and doubtlessly a beer with huge gastronomic possibilities, e.g. in combination with all kinds of fruit-containing desserts. I am beginning to see why Tommie Sjef has become such an acclaimed name in such a short time period.
