Bottle pour at In de Wildeman, pours a clear bright golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out plenty of wild yeast and a touch of oak. Flavour is gentle, with lacto, wild yeast, and a touch of oak. Wild yeast, lacto and tart citrus. Complex and well-balanced. Very good.

Can shared by John, thanks! Pours a clear amber with a light brown hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of bread and rye with a bit of grain and earthiness underlying. Flavor has a good amount of rye with some bread, light grain and a bit of thin finish.

Appearances are a very short lived fizzy head that gives way to some odd looking orange clumps that soon disappear and some yellowish white clumps on top of a yellowish orange liquid. Aromas are very aromatic fruit - mango and guava with some spice and floral. Flavors are similar to nose but not quite as good. Tart with a bit of sweet in back. Okay body and carbonation. Finish follows flavors. Maybe the best of the Starkellers that I have had.
