Cloudy, slighlty purplish brown colour. Aroma is fruity, with cobweb mustiness and some slightly plasticy notes - a byproduct of the fruit probably. Strong acid flavour - mainly lactic but a fair bit of acetic, too, accented by fruit, leather and wood. Puckering finish. It doesn’t have the smoothness nor cleanliness of a world class lambic but is quite tasty and would be good for blending.

2005: Hazy reddish-amber colour. Hazy Scotch nose. Seriously, just like scotch. Lots of alcohol and a bit of peat. Mass whiskey flavour like a bottle of scotch was dumped into a cask of Scottish Ale. As a beer, this is pretty poorly constructed but I like the taste of it so I can’t give it low scores. It works, even though I’m not sure it deserves to.
2004: Golden-brown colour. Aroma of peat, maple, herbal hints, caramel. Oily body. Lots of malty sweetness, hint of grassy hop. Smooth, sugary sweet finish. Ar 5 Ap 3 F 5 P 2 O 12 = 2.7

Sour body with raspberry and caramel, borderline Irish Ale and has a very malty body and finish. Didn't do much for me.

Was made in 1997 and they slowly sell the stuff. Once this is gone they have a black current lambic which they haven't even started on yet!! Very subtle hint of cherries underlay a sour ass beer. Damn this beer will have you puckering for a week!!

A strong hoppy nose, but the body is much more malty than usual IPA and then the hops coming back in the finish for a final bang.
