Bottle shared in London - sourced from the Wolf. Pours clear yellow with a weak white head. The bose holds grass, pale wood, slight plastic and lemon peel. Light sweet flavor with good funk, some drying wood, citric lemon, bitter grass. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Moderate tart lemon on the finish, more bitter grass, wood, hints of plastic, citrus rind. Nice overall.

Bouteille 50cl de HopDuvel, no BB. De couleur acajou, col épais blanc cassé. Arôme belle note de grains, avoine, rétro de caramel et léger chocolaté. Houblonné discret arrive en rétro avec une pointe de citronné. Palais est malté grillé, une pointe aigrelette, et ce côté typique de seigle laissant un fini épicé léger. Belle effervescence, quoique un peu haute, petit fruité noir en retrait couplé avec un léger sucre brun. Devient plus complexe en se réchauffant avec ce fruité noir ressortant plus sur une note figue voire date.

Bottle shared thanks to Caeser. Pours cloudy brown with small beige head. Aroma of big coffee, light funk, tobacco, dark fruits and caramel. Flavour is moderate sweet and heavy sour. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Confused..

Sample @THT. Courtesy of and shared with Caesar. Coffee aroma. Thin tan head. Clear deep amber pour. Coffee and sour taste. It has mellowed nicely with age.

Bouteille 50cl. Ambrée trouble moyen rappelant le jus de framboise, pas de col, pas de mousse. Arôme est malté modéré, note de levure fermentante - framboise faiblarde rappelant un mauvais lambic suivi d’une note de malt - pain/biscuité rappelant le muffin. Palais est léger, aigre, note de drêche, malt cara-pâle sur un arrière goût de framboise. Le palais n’est pas mauvais mais un pauvre exemple du style, soit entre un lambic et une bière fruitée. Le profil malt domine avec un ajout de framboise qui reste trop discret donnant cette impression de jus de framboise dilué dans de l’eau. Le tout reste néanmoins épais, possible ajout d’avoine,

Bottled, large sample. Clear golden color, frothy short head, mainly some lacing. Aroma of white wine, lots of barnyard and farmhouse qualities, some raspberry. Hints of fruit lambic actually. Slight tart taste, hint of fruity sweetness. Aroma is quite good, flavor could have a bit more of everything. Decent stuff. --- Beer merged from original tick of Grand Cru Framboise 2012 on 14 Sep 2012 at 20:26 - Score: 8. Original review text: Like a medium young lambic, with some hay and milky notes. But then with some soft raspberry notes added. Quite nice
