Pours a clear (though bottom of the bottle has some flakes) medium colored blonde. Rather big white head fades fast. Scent is OB , but significantly more barnyard / hay . Not very whisky like aroma's , but also not usually found even remotely as strong in OB. A sharp, slightly booze-oriented undertone from the whisky is recognizable. This seems interesting. Taste is full, tart and fairly dry, stronger in character than regular OB - whilst still maintaining somewhat recognizable, and very 'fullbodied'. Whisky is recognizable, but never dominates, or gets boozy. Quite remarkable as a lambic, with the whisky right where you'd want it to be, recognizable as an extra, but not overpowering. However, the sum of it's parts doesnt overclass both seperately. What doés make this one stand out is it's body, and it's intensity. OB character, but far more outspoken, which is always great !

750ml from De Bierschuur @ 🏡 with Ryan and Alex.
Aroma: a lot of funk, some pleasant acidity, a little bit of sweetness.
Taste: along the same lines, kinda aggressive bit more bold and sweet than many gueuzes.
Overall: very good.

Poured from 750mL bottle (bb 15/09/2042; 2022 vintage). Hazy orangey gold with small white head. Nice funk, dry carbonation, nice balance, enjoyable.
