2017. Big sour nose, fruity power, light blanket, tangy with moderate complexity, really smooth and drinkable. Excellent!

Pours clear blonde. Scent is citrussy, tad unripe impression, very green. Than again, how well do I really know Yuzu, this might just be how it is VS a lemon or something similarly. Lambicfunk (always mellow in character for OB) is very mild in intensity. Taste is dry, medium acidity, pumped up by the dryness and the citrussy aroma - but ti'sa ctually not that sour. Malty finish. Quite balanced, but feels a bit straight-forward and not very complex. Have had better infused's.

Pours a very clear blonde, large white stable head. Scent is mild, some fruity yeast - banana, but less exhausting, more of a fresh, tropical twist to it, seemingly. Doesnt strike me as hoppy per se, more like perhaps a slightly different (differently used) yeast?

Taste is midlly bittern BE style yeast fzr more typical here, including the exhausting sweet, sticky banana esters - way less refreshing here. Higher carbo, thin body. This is one of those very 13-in-a-dozens for me.

Pours unclear, darker blonde/amber. Scent is very intense, tannix-like woody bite, mellow lambic funk underneath. Taste is quite outspoken, yet mellow and soft. Woodyness is bit tannic, but also has some vanilla (sort off), herbal/spicy notes, complex to describe, but very aromatic. Lambic isn't lost, but does take the backseat, as the wood has been given a lot of room to shine. Very dry. Quite nice !
