Cloudy blond color; fine perlage; big creamy head. Very strange aroma, perfumy, soapy, mushrooms, coriander. Quite good dry and spicy malt taste, soft, with a very good Belgian hopping, leading to a dry and bitter final, with a touch of spices and cellar. Very good and some originality.

2018-02-14, synthetic cork, vintage 2006, 12 years old, 8-4-8-4-16=40
Cloudy dull amber color with no head. Intense aroma, sour, barnyard, malt, fruity esters. Moderately sweet, moderately sour, mildly astringent, wood.
Amazingly good after 12 years.
2006-12-12, 37,5cl bottle; my first beer bottle with syntetic cork, 9-4-8-4-17=42
Cloudy light amber color; poor head retention, fizzy, but then some little cloggy islands of foam are assembling, on the surface.
Very strong Lambic aroma, with citrus fruits, some grapefruit, cellar; sour; round, complete, lasting.
Medium body strength, the flavor is dominated by a typical Gueuze imprint, but with some added maltiness; the Tripel is more evident when the beer is warmer; very strong sourness and some fruitness (citrus fruits, apple, grapefruit, light pink grapefruit), with a touch of astringency.
The final is strong, long, with robust lambic character, more bitter than usual, and finally it's easier to detect a warming high alcohol.
Impressive, original, excellent.

A lightly hazed golden ale with a thin big bubbled white head. Surprising aroma of lambic, sour apples, light barnyard, cherries, pleasant and enticing. In mouth, a surprising fresh lambic taste, with sourish apples, puckering, sweet malts, lactic acids. Rather light and the 11% alcohol does not show...may be treatourous! Bieropholie private imports. Bottled in 2006.

Bottle Yellow to amber, clear body. Rocky, off-white head. Fruity (oranges) aroma but not intense, some honey too. Lightly bitter, somewhat alcoholic flavour. Very plain flavour and a little bit astringent. Not very interesting.

Bottle, 7%. Fruity, vinous raisin aroma. Clear dark copper/red colour. Small head. The flavour is somehow roasted, a bit as if the grain has been completely drained of every last drop of starch. Slightly sweet and quite vinous. Ending with a sweet fruitiness.
