Description
We are two brothers, Tom and Wim, who have been exploring the possibilities of wildly fermented drinks for many years. In Kortenaken, next to the house of Tom we constructed a small farmhouse brewery and fermentorium. ​ Our main activity consists in the production of wild ales. Being located in Belgium, we're giving a twist to two local traditions: saison/farmhouse ales and lambic/sour ales. We do not aim at historical reproduction, but allow ourselves all freedom in creatively revisiting these styles. We also like to experiment with gruit, i.e. non-hopped beers, in which we use homegrown or foraged herbs and fruits to create culinary surprises. All of our beers are barrel aged. We like to get our hands dirty, diving deep into the raw, material world of grains, hops, yeasts... That's why we never outsource any brewing. ​ Every autumn, we also produce some dry, hard cider, from handpicked apples of old varieties of our own and neighbouring orchards, together with some natural wines from our home vineyard.

Bottle sample at Billie’s. Funky, savanykas, a klasszik lambic izvilagot hozza korrekten, de azon felul sokat nem ad.

Bottle sample at Billie’s, day one. A narancs keseruje es az alapsor szaraz, savas karaktere annyira raerositettek egymasra, hogy mar-mar ihatatlansagig fokoztak a sort.

Funky, tart and sourish with some berries, earthiness and stingy woody notes, blood orange peel and hints of farmyardy yeastiness. Quite heavy

Bottle pour at Carnivale. Egy ujabb bukott kiserlet a keseru-savanyu balansz megtalalasara. Balansz helyett raerosit egyik a masikra, az eredmeny meg pont az, amire szamitanal.

Pours a clear blonde, medium to medium large, relatively unstable white head. Scent is sharp, only mildly phenolic, bit 'rubbery'. Fresh, relatively speaking, which is quite cool for a beer currently 6.5 years old. Taste is sharp and tart, but complex and phenolic as well. Mildly 'rubbery' still, not as typical saison as expected - not very true to style to me, but given the fact it's an 'interpretation', and the beer is all but fresh, i'll cut it some slack for that. some honey (age) and oak from the barrel - less specific (now?) on the wine. Higher carbonation level, but not over the top. Easy drinkable, balanced, and seems to have no age negativities at this point.

Pours a clear blonde. Small white head. Scent is fairly full , earthy grapes - gewurtz a bit more prominent to me for that reason. Taste is full, medium acidity, dry mouthfeel. Very grape-y, earthy and slightly floral, citrus (lime) and green treefruit come to mind on their part. Mild on the funk , actually the grapes take the lead, as well as the backbone here (appart from the body and acidity, as well as carbonation which is medium). Very nice beer, as we're being used to by Antidoot. Easy drinkable, dry, refined and very balanced.
