Cloudy red pour, with no head, low carbonation - inviting, semi-sweet black raspberry aroma, with touches of grape skins, and earthy/musty qualities around the edges - the flavor starts off as if the beer is going to be sweet, but a sourness quickly develops that combines with the rather natural raspberry flavors to give the beer the flavor of tart berries that have begun to rot - sour, decaying fruit - that’s what this beer tastes like - and still, I like it...somewhat.

Draught@Weekend OF Spontaneous Fermentation. Golden colour, no head. Aroma is vinegary sourness, spicy and even a bit of alcohol. Flavour is very much the same with some slight wooden hints. Stinging, strong and sour. Good one!

Draught No head over hazy dark peach to foxy beer. Despite its 14 months, still a bit of sweetness, as well as lime, mixed into a very outspoken horseblanket aroma, straw, even a bit of cheese. Very dry, severe, and very woody lambic. Surprising as this is, despite the Boon brewing influence, again more in the real OB tradition (Frank calls it "quickly ready"); just the bitterness is still a bit missing, the tannines, however, are there. Point of sweetness (like a cherryjam) in the very end. Dry, light, but nowhere empty; the beer might be the perfect paradox in being light and chewy at the same time. Excellent lambic, very surprising for its origins.

Augeprägt saurer Geruch der außerdem stark an Johannisbeeren erinnert. Sauer, aber nicht übermäßig sauer ist der Antrunk, im Mittelteil sieht das schon anders aus, hier erreicht das Bier seinen Säurehochpunkt. Dabei fällt dasleichte Johannisbeeraroma fast unter den Tisch, das im Nachgeschmack wiederum aufblüht. Dazu kommt eine leichte Herbe. Danke an den Doppelbock für das Teilen des Bieres!
