De doux accents fermiers, une touche de romarin, des notes terreuses, un fond mentholé et herbacé composent une palette aromatique complexe.
Une mousse pétillante qui descend assez rapidement sur un liquide doré et partiellement voilé.
Entrée de bouche acidulée, terreuse et chevaline.
Une très légère touche de romarin s’insère dans la palette mais en général, les adjuvants sont moins présents en bouche qu’au nez.
Un fond subtilement sucré miellé s’ajoute à l’ensemble pour adoucir le tout.
L’équilibre se maintient du côté acidulé mais le miellé sucré et fruité demeure perceptible.
Bel équilibre entre acidulé et fruité miellé.
Assez appréciée !

(750ml bottle @ the brewery, Sep 8/23) Pours clear amber with a decent white head that fades to a ring with spotty lace. Aroma is tart, funky and herbal, ripe cranberries nicely present, some nice tart apple/pear as well, rosemary is quite prominent but well-integrated with a lambic-like flora (moreso than their pure spontaneous beers to me so far), no old hops in here I suppose but the herbal quality somewhat mimics a bit of their quality. Flavour follows the nose, lightly to moderately tart with a hint of sweetness as well thanks to the ripe cranberries, mixed tree fruit backing notes, soft cereal character, funk is lambic-style in its profile, lactic acid with dashes of acetic too, rosemary initially subtle but emerges out of the funk in the middle of the sip to become a more dominant note. The seam of acidity persists into a drying finish, hay and a little tannin helping with the drydown, good smooth funk, rosemary into the aftertaste. Medium-bodied, touch slick and oily, smooth filling bottle-conditioned carbonation. Wow, a very unexpected concept but the idea was excellent and the execution talented. Superb creative wild ale.
