Taster showing slightly opaque pale amber with sparse white foam.
The nose shows moderately intense tart notes of peaches.
The palate is well carbonated and medium bodied. Dry but very ripe yellow juicy peaches throughout balanced by a moderate tartness. More peach on the finish. Fruit forward and fantastic.

375 ml. Bottle. A: pours a quite dark orange, head disappears almost immediately, clearly little carbonation. S: low vinegar, moldy orange, it’s funky but also bit dirty, signs of age and once more watery. T: pretty much flat with some interesting but dirty funk, lingering vinegar near flat and moldy orange. This is simply disappointing, I has been a while since I got this one, last time it was quite expensive but good now it’s just expensive and worse than many standard offerings. The brand recognition is still there but the beers rarely justify it.

750ml @ SF shared with Phill (thx for the beer!) and Josh.
Aroma: acidic, fading out raspberries, some funk.
Taste: along the same lines.
Overall: passed its prime IMHO, unfortunately, still good.

Not sure if it's the best, but it's the smoothest maybe due to age. Tastes more sugary, sweet than previous sharp, younger lambics I just tried. Grapefruit and snappy cracker. Sweet and tangy finish. Bottle at Snally.
