'Versnijbier' of a sour ale by De Leite and Oud Beersel lambic, bottle from Dranken De Moor in Haasdonk. Medium thick, mousy, off-white, large-bubbled, slowly opening and diminishing head, misty peach blonde robe with pale orange hue. Aroma of sour plums, grass silage, raw rhubarb, old jute bags, green gooseberries, kefir, raw cucumber, old apple peel, haystack, raw pineapple. Fruity sourness in the mouth, sour plum, redcurrant, unripe nectarine and gooseberry impressions with a dash of raw cucumber thrown in but also a sweeter apple-ish core; spritzy carb, refreshing. Yoghurty lactic sourness with a thin lemony edge continues to dry a white-bready and lightly rusk-like maltiness, while fruity notes keep abounding towards a somewhat dusty and hayish finish - clearly very lambic-like; a late, deep, earthy hop bitterness shows up after that, again as in lambic, but the finish as a whole comes across as 'cleaner', less funky and more accessible than would typically be the case in a one hundred percent lambic beer. Yoghurty effects linger too. This delivers exactly what it promises: a typical fruity Leite sour with a good portion of lambic thrown in, but the clean, fruity, soft character of Leite's basic beer keeps it all relatively accessible and 'easy'. More than decent, very enjoyable sour in any case, that much is certain.

On tap in the Bier Paleis, Brugge on 4th July 2019. Hazy orange pour, white top. Semi-sour, semi-sweet with a Passion fruit feel in the nose and taste, almost interesting!

Bottle thanks to my wife: Poured dark brown almost black with a huge tan head. Aroma is sticky caramel and dark fruits. Taste is fruits, metallic, caramel and dry finish.

Bottle @Johnny's Off License (Rome). Bruna, schiuma avorio media, non molto persistente. Al naso note affumicate leggere, un filo di speziatura, scorza di limone. In bocca è senza nerbo, leggermente amara e affumicata, slegata. Corpo esile, watery, carbonazione medio-leggera. Non ci siamo.

Flaska från Belgiuminabox. Disig ljusgul vätska med lågt skum. Lite funkig frisk doft. Stall och strå, citrus och en lätt rökig ton som finns där men knappt märks och funkar mycket bra. Gott

Bottle courtesy of Mortlach, thanks. In Rome at So Good. Cloudy golden pour with a medium white foam. Nose: sweet vinous, sour leather led beer. Mouth: crazy carbo, a bit citric, then goes better with a charming citric and herbal character which develops.

Bottle from LDW. Hazy golden colour, rather tart, lemony with subtle hints of smoke. Nice and refreshing.
