LCRBM2. Fermented rotten apple aroma. Sulphury and phenolic. Pourse cloudy golden. Flavor is ok: Cidery apples, cobwebbs into the aftertaste. Sparkly mouthfeel. Weird one....

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a very fast disappearing light brown head. The aroma is lovely acidic apply combined with notes of wood and malt. The flavor is strongly apply with a slight acidity from the apples, which mixes beutifully in with the notes of wood and malt. Another masterpeice with a good body.

(Bottle 75 cl) Pours a clear, dark, nutty brown with a small, off-white head dissipating in no time. Sweet’n’sour lambicish aroma - or perhaps rather Faro? There’s some brown sugar in there, and woody almost bourbon style accents. Medium body with sweetish, oaky accents and a tart finish. Thanks heaps highlandlad for this gem. I really love Billy Bs... 080107

Bottled at RBESG-06, GTN. (thx Phil) Hazy, orange beverage with some off-white bubbles. The aroma is sour, with apples, fruits and cellar. Sweet and sour flavor with lemon and green apples. Astringent, cleansing mouthfeel. Almost lambic-like, but apple-dominated. Definately nice, but maybe a bit intense. (060826)

Bottle at LCRBM 2, Kulminator, Antwerp, Belgium
Brown, clear body. No head. Apple aroma with some fine malts. Heavily sour, lightly sweet initial flavour. Moderately sour finish. Not as sour as the golden, due to the maltiness. A perfect balance. Many thanks to Tony and Lach (mullet) for sending these over!!

Bottle - Many thanks to Tony and Lach (mullet) for sending 2 bottles over!
Muddy, orange body. Fastly diminishing, fizzy head, just like a champagne head. Complex aroma of sour apples, stables, ... Heavily sour, lightly sweet flavour. Very complex flavour of sour apples, the fruitiness is nicely combined with a nice sourness. As a true sourhead, I’m totally into this!

Clear red-foxy beer with a small yellowish head, gone in seconds. Aged, dried apples on a sunny loft. Candied apple peel. Sweet-sour taste, in a perfect cider-like balance. Yet, apples, no extra flavours. Tart, with some adstringent to burning impression, and a fizzy MF. Incomparably better than the "Golden" version. Maybe this is how commercial Normandy cider ought to be. Not to be compared with real farmyard ciders.

Fully hazy, not like pressed, but crushed pineapples; short lived yellowish head. Nose of apples treated with iceacid (concentrated acetic). Like an unforgettable salad dressing. Vinegar extracted from apples and fish flour added. And some apple concentrate. MF: don’t ask. This doesn’t etch, it lazers. Wow.

Bottled@RBESG’06. Hazy bright orange color, no head. Sour, apple-like aroma, like in Cantillon geuze. Sour apple flavor, very carbonated - foamy mouthfeel. Long sour aftertaste, Australian "lambic".
