37,5cl bottle. Vintage BB 1999. Bottle purchased at De Heeren Van liedekercke. Ohh Bwoy! Pours unclear orange with no head on top. Nose is sour with notes of wood, dust, cellar, barnyard & leather. Flat carbonation. Smooth mouthfeel. Perfectly aged. Lovely sour bite. Dry, lemony brett-ish and crisp. This brings me back to Belgium and De heeren inparticular. Also a reason why I am going back there the next time im leaving my country. Shit . . This is great!

Bottle at Heeren van Liedekercke, Belgium, 26-07-08 This was a 1994 bottle. Poured amber in colour with some haze quite still with little head to be noted. Really quite good acidic bite,reminding one of sour cooking apples, some jiffy lemon and mustiness complete this. Nice beer in lovely surroundings thanks to Mes for pointing me in the direction of this place.

Date is 12/1999, pretty sure that means best before. Pours from traditional lambic basket witha dark clear golden, almost orange, color and a strong but small head. Aroma is all cobwebs, attic of a barnyard, definitely lots of older gueze and then a final spritz of lemon brett. Taste hits you wiht a burst of lemon-y brett then an aggressive acidity from the brett. Then there is a final strong acidic kick at the end that really dries one out and tingles the back of the throat. It;s all aged and bretty all over, wonderful. Long aftertaste of lemon. Lots of sediment at the end of the bottle that murkies up the beer.
375mL bottle in a tumbler @ De Heeren van Liedekercke on 5/19/08.

(3/9/08) Bottle at De Heeren van Liedekercke in Denderleeuw. Best before 12/99. Deep hazy golden with almost no head at all. Citric aroma. Sharp citric sour flavor with something a bit weird that I can’t recognize. Medium-bodied.
