On tap at Fakin Craft Fest, Zagreb. Hazy orange with a pinkish glow, lasting creamy off-white head. Peach candy, white wine, some acidity, ripe apple. Stone or pome fruit puree. Slightly sour, acetic acid, refreshing. Very nice use of a barrel. Quite sour and puckering. Slightly sharp, low bitterness or a malty component. Good balance. Light body, drinkable, easy going, lasting fruity finish.

On tap at Fakin Craft Beer Fest, Zagreb. Dark ruby to brownish red. Beetroot! Earthy, light vinegar, slightly funky, some wood or sawdust. Tart, light sourness, some barrel and wood. Beetroot persistent. Tart finish, nicely balanced, drinkable, alcohol hidden. Easy going but complex. Good stuff.

Sehr trockener, nur wenig säuerlicher Beginn. Rund aprikosiger Mittelteil, schwach aromatisch, immerhin erfrischend. Spritzig, steigend fruchtig, die Säure bleibt enttäuschend. 10/8/8/7/5/7

RB backlog. Strawberry, wheat, cider, slightly woody and earthy. Medium sweetness starts off a journey through different layers of tart- and sourness that end in an impressive, sour and fruity finish, with a sharp underlying woody note.

Peach, wood, sour wheat, funky, light aged gouda, dill. Intense sourness starts this one off, weaves in lighter sweet notes. Astringency is present throughout, battles salt. Opens up a little more and presents something fermentation-, not fruit forward.

14/IV/19 - sample @ Leuven Innovation Beer Festival (Leuven), BB: n/a - (2019-554)
Pretty cloudy beige to reddish brown beer, practically no head. Aroma: hoppy, tropical fruits, citrus, some grapefruit, smells more like an IPA than European noble hops! :p MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: bit sourish, lots of citrus, fruity, soft bitterness, nice stuff! Aftertaste: soft bitterness, lots of citrus, fruity notes, some tannins, hoppy again. Love the hops in this one!

Damn backlog, could've been first! :p Man, this festival had a lot of ratebeer scoops!
Pretty clear blond to orange beer, small creamy aery off-white head, little stable, non adhesive. Aroma: very funky, rural, bit dirty, horse stable, cow fodder, raw grains. MF: ok carbon medium body. Taste: pretty sourish start, some vinegar, lemon juice, some tannins coming through, bit metallic touch. Aftertaste: very dry, bit fruity, lemon acidity, little bitter, nice one. Not getting any Amaretto though? (Described as an Amaretto sour ale)
