20 August 2022. At 12de Gents Bierfestival. Cheers to Anke, Pieter & the whole crew!
Hazy ochre, thin, off-white head. Aroma of unripe apricot, sour plum, quince, green apple, lemon, wet straw, sour cream. Taste has sour apricot, plum, quince & apple in a sourdough-like malt body, bit lemony with funky straw. Tart, lemony finish, sour grape, funky apple. Medium body, slick texture, soft carbonation. Decent blend, refreshing.

Clear golden colour with no head. Nicely dry and woody. The base cider is slightly on the sweet side but it's a good mix overall.

Angenehm säuerlicher Beginn. Holzige Noten, milde Herbe, ausgewogen. Die Säure bleibt im unteren Bereich, erfrischend, sehr süffig. Langer Nachgeschmack. 10/10/11/11//11

Pours unclear , small ring of white head. Scent is full, juicy apple. Far less skins than i'm used to in good ciders, probably due to the usage of only jonagold ? Bit funky due to the lambic, providing some balance. Taste is full, sharp, fairly dry, mild apple aroma (fruitgflesh, little to no skins ). Lambic funk. Compared to the hoenshof cider lambiek, you can tell this has much more lambic (an actual blend vs a liqueur de dosage in Hoenshof) which brings balance and interesting components. on the other hand, this cider needs the balance, as 100 % jonagold simply isn't that interesting or good for cider. I like the blend, but the usage of a better base would realy elevate this beverage's endresult.
