Bottle (as "Jerez Sherry Beer aged 18 months in Fino sherry casks from Lustau" from beergium.com). Pours golden with whiteish head. The head stays for a moment. Aroma is sour, medicinal, funk. Flavor sour and sweet, vinegar, fruits, citrus, medicinal, funk and cellar. Finish is acidic. Overall: very good. Note: I’m not sure if this is "Old Lambic BA Sherry Jerez" or something new since on the label of "young Sherry Amontillado" it also says that it is aged 18 months. No info about this beers on brewer’s web page or facebook.

sampled @ “2de Bierproeffestival van De Dijleschuimers”. Pours unclear blonde, no real head. Smell is more dirty than the Jerez version. Taste is sharp, sour, dirt , oak, mild funk. Enjoyed the Jerez much more.

sampled @ “2de Bierproeffestival van De Dijleschuimers”. Pours rather clear blonde, no real head. Smell is funky. Taste is fruity, dry, sherry and oak. Of course, this is bound to be compared to ZYF. I quite enjoyerd this , and think it is a good alternative to the unobtainable ZYF. Nice complexity and MF, but less funky, and less blended . Original rating : 2015. Original score 4.2. Re-rate in december 2017. upping the score way up. This would have been a 4.7 at this occasion. Taking a medium in 4.5 as this latter one was tasted in a better surounding. It ages gracefully. i'll need more !

A clear dark brown ale with a thin mocha head. In aroma, sweet fruity caramel malt with light vinous notes, light treacle, pleasant piney hops, nice and smooth. In mouth, a nice sweet fruity malt with molasses, butterscotch, candy sugar, light bodied, a bit of roasted notes, OK. Bottle at Montréal Xmas gathering 2015.

(Thx!) 375 ml. bottle sampled @ “2de Bierproeffestival van De Dijleschuimers”. Sampled side-by-side with Sherry Jerez one. Drank as “Venencia Sherry Beer”. Same as this one, I assume. Darker one, orange with no head. Nose is hugely milky, lactic buttery, popcorn lambiek, reminiscent of lesser unblended Girardin. Taste is watery lemon, butter popcorn, spoiled butter, watery, lemon, dull,… Watery unblended lambiek body. Too buttery, spoiled lambiek,… Reminscent of a weaker Girardin,… Expensive stuff looking at that one, passable but not too crazy about that one.

(Thx!) 375 ml. bottle sampled @ “2de Bierproeffestival van De Dijleschuimers”. Sampled side-by-side with Venencia Sherry one. Hazy orange, lighter shade with no head. Nose is mellow, funk, lactic rotting milky, tad watery, citrus peel. Taste is a bit watery, lactic, juice, watery, mellow funk, citrus peel, funk, light oak,… Rather watery as in usual unblended lambiek fashion. Reminiscent of an unblended Boon lambiek. Nice. Very expensive considering how much unblended lambiek usually costs over here.
