Laranja. Consistência média, algo gelatinosa. Efervescente. Espuma de curta duração. Sabor a maracujá artificial. Algo de manga também. O primeiro trago foi generoso, refrescante à primeira mas o teor alcoólico e açúcar prevaleceram, sensação imediata de estar numa estufa. A sensação final é de estar a beber um sumo barato e artificial de maracujá com teor alcoólico elevado. Nota pessoal: Não voltar a comprar

On tap at À la Mort Subite , Brussels.My first Faro. Kind of strange experience. Sweet and fruity with some sweetness and sourness, reminded me of a Rose Wine.

Barwa żółta, złocista z niewielkim zamgleniem. Biała,wysoka i trwała piana. Zbudowana z drobnych i średniej wielkości pęcherzyków, wyraźnie oblepia szkło.
Aromat intensywnie owocowy (sok z marakui), wydaje się być lekko słodki i kwaskowy jednocześnie. Z czasem pojawiają się akcenty słodowe i cukierkowe (landrynki owocowe).
Smak, podobnie jak aromat słodki z odrobiną kwaśności. Nuty owocowe nadal są wiodące.
Wysycenie średnie. Ciało średnie w górę. Tekstura bardzo, bardzo gładka, miękka. Posmak długi, generalnie słodki.

Draft in Brussels. Lots of sour, orangey color. Ok but not a serious geuze fan myself.

Draft. Amber, head etc. Really refreshing and a very good kriek. Sweet but not overly so IMO.

One of two new sugared, 'industrial' fruit beers by Mort Subite, probably inspired by that ridiculous rouge hype here in Belgium; this one contains mango and passionfruit concentrate as well as added sugar, but seems altogether just a notch less artificial than that ghastly Bloody Berry version. Thick, even, moussey, egg-white, foamy, regular head over a lightly misty pale straw blonde robe with old golden tinge and lots of fiery sparkling. Aroma of Mango Minute Maid, passionfruit lemonade, Orangina, wet wheat flour, industrial lemon juice, something vaguely sulfuric in the background, soapy note or paraffin wax, touch apple peel or green pear. Unsurprisingly very sweet, white-sugary onset, ascorbic acid as in lemonade, but in this case obviously flavoured with a ton of artificial mango and artificial passionfruit fusing with each other into one sugary, 'tropical' lemonade effect; fizzy carb but fine-bubbled, smooth body, wheaty underbuilt with soapy effect, very slick - but consistently dominated by sugar and this mango and passionfruit juice concentrate. Not much else happens here, apart from a very vague, slightly chemical bitterish note that should probably be ascribed to the fruit concentrates; needless to say, lambic features are nowhere to be seen, even basic 'beeriness' is completely absent. This is again a childish lemonade-like concoction with no gastronomic ambitions, no complexity, no honesty, no honour - a pale version of rouge indeed. I have doubts about the way Mort Subite even produces their 'lambic' in the first place and this kind of aberrations do not help. I can down this when ice cold and in one gulp - more easily perhaps than that cough syrup-like berry version, but that is about the most positive thing I can say here. Damn you, Mort Subite - there are enough fine lambic producers in (and even outside of) Belgium now, I do not think we need you around anymore, sorry!
