Bottle (2011 vintage drank in 2015): Poured a hue golden yellow color lambic with small bubbly head with limited retention. Aroma of light green apple notes with some tart notes and light vinous undertones. Taste is also dominated by tart green apple notes with some vinous notes, light oak and light funky ester with a thin finish. Body is thinner then I was expecting with OK carbonation. Not bad but doesn’t have the depth of the top Belgian lambic producer.

Super hazy amber coloured body with a nice, two centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of malt, biscuits, earth, apples, peaches, alcohol and a bit of funk - interesting. Medium-bodied; Strong rich biscuity malt flavour with a lot of alcohol and only a dash of hops, not too much, but more syrup than anything else. Aftertaste is quite mediocre with the malt coming through, some light fruits, a touch of grass and some very light hops as well. Overall, a decent beer at best - this one seems past it’s prime, but with the character, doesn’t seem like it ever would have been great. I sampled this 75 cL bottle purchased from Lueken’s Liqour in Dunedin, Florida on 03-October-2015 for the bargain price of US$5,99 sampled at home in Washington on 22-December-2015.

Nice lambic bretta with citrus and some cracker. Hazy, tangy, good balance overall. Bottle shared at a tasting a while back.

Hazy gold, short lived head, lacking effervescence. Aroma is strongly acetic, so is the flavor. Mixes balsamic vinegar with lemon juice and a hint of green apple. Some sugary sweetness rises up but not enough to balance, instead a bit cloying and then there’s a long herbal bitterness at the finish, so, am I really tasting hops? ugh. Or is that a salty mineral-iness? Curious experiment in sour, not a Berliner weisse (not rating to style anyway).

Draft @ Titanic brewpub. Pours dark brown color with tan head. Big chocolate and lightly roasted malt aromas. Milk chocolate and roasted malt flavors with a hint of espresso. Medium body with moderate carbonation. Decent.
