Description
Yet another game-changer in the history of Mikkeller, the opening of Baghaven marked the moment when – finally – spontaneously fermented sour beer was made using local terroir. Importing skilled American brewer Ehren Schmidt to head up operations at Baghaven helped establish the foundation for a location that would fuse tradition with cutting-edge innovation.

Bottle shared at home. Opaque golden pour with a white head. Nose is sweetish straw, grains, pale malts, barnyard and light funk. Taste is sweetish upfront, malty, straw and hay come through, a bit earthy, funky, estery, with a dry, somewhat bitter finish. Light bodied with sub-average carbonation.

Tap @ Henry and Sally, Oslo. Unclear golden body without any head. Nice funky aroma with passion fruit, peach and acidic lemon. The taste brings out the WOW factor by me, so nice and balanced, still complex. Almost unbelievable fresh and fruity with passion fruit and peach like aroma, medium sweet and still dry, slightly woody. Pure joy.

Tap @ Henry and Sally, Oslo. Slightly unclear golden body with a thin white head. Delicate funky aroma with citric fruit and lemon. Flavor is nice as well with citric fruit, pale malt, acidic lemon, wood and hint of vinegar. Fine body and tart aftertaste. Nice with a sharp edge but also very pleasant.

Tap @ Henry and Sally, Oslo. Almost clear golden with a thin white head. Nice funky aroma, feels a lot like an unblended Lambic. Flavor is also quite straight, mild funky and light acidic fruity like a Lambic. Medium body and average aftertaste. Nice and easy drinkable sour.

Bottle shared with RJ. Ruby pour with no head. Nose and taste are that of an easy drinking table red wine: huuuge stone fruits and red grapes, pleasant but intense tannins. It's so vineous it's crazy it doesnt have any grapes in it, very smooth to drink as well. Might not be that complex but very pleasant anyway

75 cl bottle poured in to a flute glass. Hazy reddish with an amber tint, a frothy pink head. Tart fruity aroma with brett, leather, lemons, raspberries, and dry, wooden notes. The taste is sour. Medium to full body, lively carbonation. Tart, fruity finish with lingering raspberries. Excellent.
