Tap at Billies. Almost clear golden. Deep deep funk. Soft caramel, oak, light floral, vanilla, a bit herbal. Hard to describe how the birch works here, but very subtle and pleasant. Medium sour. Flat. I really like it.

On tap, at Billie's Craft Beer Festival. A nice beer indeed, but felt a bit dull I think. Funky, fruity and tart, with a herbal hint I guess comes from the birch bark. Lightly woody. Guess this one was a bit too subtle for a big tasting session like this festival is. But nice indeed. 747414 251107

On tap, at Billie's Craft Beer Festival. Funky, with lots of citrus. Lemon, orange, both from the yuzu I assume, although some lemon from the base beer is expected too. Oak hints and some horse blanket. Tart and quenching, nice indeed. 747415 251107

On tap at Billie's Craft Beer Festival. A solid lambic base, funky, fruity, with a pleasant addition of pepper aroma and flavor. Certainly a good idea to add peppers to the beer. Refreshing and quite tasteful. 747414 251107

Low carbo, thin body. Med sourness, restrained. Light acetic only. Medium birch bark presence, mixes well with medium funk. Good one, altho could use more complexity and some bubbles.

Thin bod, no carbonation. Quite sour, med-high lacto, med-light acetic. Light tart. Overall quite dry. Medium barnyard. Med-light matcha, but honestly it does not stand out, while it does not fit in either. A sensory miracle. Idk about these experiments.

Pours a clear (though bottom of the bottle has some flakes) medium colored blonde. Rather big white head fades fast. Scent is OB , but significantly more barnyard / hay . Not very whisky like aroma's , but also not usually found even remotely as strong in OB. A sharp, slightly booze-oriented undertone from the whisky is recognizable. This seems interesting. Taste is full, tart and fairly dry, stronger in character than regular OB - whilst still maintaining somewhat recognizable, and very 'fullbodied'. Whisky is recognizable, but never dominates, or gets boozy. Quite remarkable as a lambic, with the whisky right where you'd want it to be, recognizable as an extra, but not overpowering. However, the sum of it's parts doesnt overclass both seperately. What doés make this one stand out is it's body, and it's intensity. OB character, but far more outspoken, which is always great !
