Sampled 750 ml. bottle @ “Vini Birre Ribelli 2015”. Hazy citrus, small white head. Nose is weirdly mineral, spoiled yeast, floral, fizzy. Taste is dry floral, big chalk & chalky yeast, hay, yeast dominates in taste & body. Odd, overly yeasty & chalky. I can manage but not really for me.

Sampled 750 ml. bottle @ “Vini Birre Ribelli 2015”. Hazy citrus, small white head. Nose is weirdly floral, lemon, sugar, hay & some milky yeast. Taste is fizzy milky yeast, lemon, sugar, candy, mellow floral hops. Milky yeast body. Too yeast, not much hops, not really to the style but okay if taken on its own. Decent but nothing special.

Bottle shared at Moeder Lambic. Pours clear amber brown with a tiny ring head. Aroma of tart fruits, dusty cobweb cellar, nutty notes coming out strongly from the wine, wood, caramel and toffee. Flavour is moderate sweet, above light bitter and light to light moderate sour. Medium bodied with near flat carbonation.

Bottle split at CBC Clerko, thanks to Fergus, 10/09/15. Lightly hazed golden with a decent off white covering. Nose is earthy hop, straw, orange, toasted malt. Taste comprises soft bread dough, melon, tangerine, straw, hint of lemon. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Ok but pretty pedestrian for style ... needs hopping up !

Craft Clerkenwell Bottle Share. Thanks to Meester Frog. Lightly hazy gold beer, decent white head. Palate is airy, semi dry and crisp. Caramel malts that taste slightly oxidised. Floral bitterness turning tangy. Floral bitter finish. Okay.

Bottle thanks to Fergus. It pours murky gold with a medium white head. The nose is toasted grain, doughy malt, soft orange citrus and apricot jam. The taste is crisp, bitter, mild sweetness, toasted grass, white bread, light paper and lemon peel with a dry, grassy finish. Light - medium body and average carbonation. Pretty alright.

Bottle shared at a CBC Clerkenwell tasting - London. Big thanks to Fergus for this one. Pours clearish yellow with a creamy white head. The nose holds dry wheat, hay, pale grains. Light sweet flavor with some bitter grain husk, grass, pine needles. Light bodied with average carbonation. Dry and bitter on the finish, with more grass and grain. So so.

Small, light-beige head over well-carbonated, fully hazy red-brown beer. Sourish, lactic acid, vinous, red fruit, wood aromas. Woody, lactic acid, milkchocolate (if with hardly any sweetness), fruity esters, red/blue fruit mostly. Acidthinning, quite slick and yet some body left. Dry palate, long lasting flavours. Excellent Oud Bruin... made in France! Thanks to whomever bestowed this on me! (Jean?)
