I donโt know the year, bottle generously provided on a whim by OldGrowth on 3.4.06
Nose is strawberry jam and ripe strawberry juice, with some very faint honey and light splashes of light tart, fruit acidity. The flavor is very strong, juicy, sweet strawberry juice, with some very faint caramel-like sugars and touches of honey. But predominantly strawberry juice. Light wash of effervescent carbonation and tartness on end. No alcohol apparency or yeast apparency. Deep rosy-orange hued amber colored body, clear, with a quickly diminishing beige head, light lacing, but ultimately too filtered.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Beautiful, clear dark amber with a slight, underlying shade of red. Crude, white head. Slightly tart aroma with a touch of fruit. Pronounced lambic tartness neatly balanced by the sweetness from the strawberries and the strawberry pulp. But still the character is very different from Belgian lambic. Leaves a pleasant tartness on your palate. A surprisingly authentic fruit lambic. 231005

Sampler from bottle at Binnyโs, Orland Parh, Not a very Belgian character at all, but very tasty. A good smell leads to a sunny strawberry flaver. Just a little bit of tartness to this old palate. Slight hoppiness keeps this from sliding into strrawberry wine country. Goes down quickly, too.

I have had this a couple of times and absolutely love it. I am a sucker for the sweet lambics. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a medium golden color with a medium sized golden head. The aroma was sweet apricot with a sour tang. It smelled more like apricot pits than the fruit. The flavor is strong apricot - thick and super sweet.

Bottled. Deep clear red. Sweet cherry aroma. Balsamic sweet cherry flavour with some grape stone bitterness. A hint of fresh acidity, but sweetness takes the upper hand, and disturbs the nice flavours.
