8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7.5 Flavor 8 Texture 9 Overall 8
0.33 l can from 'Craftbeers', best before February 2028. Black with a medium large, foamy, almost stable, light brown head. Sweetish-malty, gently roasty and a little fruity aroma of dark chocolate, roasted hazelnut, coffee, vanilla, quite some almond and traces of cherry. Quite sweet, malty, fairly roasty and a bit fruity taste of dark chocolate, coffee, roasted hazelnut, vanilla, almond and a touch of cherry, followed by a medium long, quite roasty-bitter finish. Full body, smooth and slightly creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Tasty brew, although it doesn't really taste like a cherry crumble.

6.5/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6.5 Flavor 6.5 Texture 7 Overall 6.5
0.33 l bottle from 'Craftbeers', 10.0% abv, best before November 2026. Hazy, very dark ruby with a medium large, frothy, slowly diminishing, beige head. Sweetish-malty, gently yeasty-spicy, slightly fruity aroma of caramel, marzipan, cocoa, clove and raisins. Quite sweet, malty, moderately bitter, slightly roasty, quite yeasty-spicy and a bit fruity taste of caramel, cocoa, marzipan, clove, nutmeg and some raisins, followed by a medium long, gently bitter, slightly roasty, moderately dry finish. Medium body, quite effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Solid ale but I prefer 'Saxo'. At 10%, it's quite monotonous and bland.

8.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8.5 Texture 9 Overall 8.5
0.75 l can from 'Rebelbeercans', 2023 vintage, bottled in October 2023. A little hazy, very deep ruby with a thin, slightly fluffy, quickly diminishing, pinkish white head. Slightly sweetish, sourish, rather fruity, slightly funky and a little vinous aroma of sour cherry, bitter almond, oak, elderberry and blackcurrant. A little sweetish, gently sour, rather fruity, slightly funky and a little vinous taste of sour cherry, blackcurrant, elderberry, lemon, oak, bitter almond and light horse blanket, followed by a medium long, gently tart, fairly woody-dry finish. Medium body, gently astringent and quite effervescent mouthfeel, lively carbonation. Very well-balanced, elegant and sophisticated lambic, maybe the best of the brut beers from Oud Beersel.

8/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 8.5 Flavor 8.5 Texture 7 Overall 8
0.33 l bottle from 'Craftbeers', bottled in October 2025. Black with a thin, frothy, quickly diminishing, light brown head. Intensely sweetish-malty, gently fruity and slightly boozy aroma of molasses, raisins, prunes, whisky and light vanilla. Heavily sweet, malty, moderately bitter, quite fruity, slightly boozy and minimally roasty taste of molasses, raisins, prunes, whisky, vanilla and light chocolate, followed by a long, moderately bitter, gently boozy finish. Almost full-bodied, gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Very rich and saturating brew, nicely fruity, not too boozy. Unfortunately a little thin, but apart from that a lovely beer.

6.8/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 7
0.33 l bottle from 'Craftbeers', best before December 2030. Almost clear, amber with a few white bubbles on top of it. Intensely sweetish-malty, gently fruity, slightly boozy, moderately floral and a little spicy aroma of honey, caramel, baked apple, bourbon, some cinnamon and light lovage. Rather sweet, malty, rather boozy, gently fruity, slightly floral and a little spicy taste of honey, caramel, toasted nuts, bourbon, baked apple, cinnamon, lovage and some wax, followed by a long, moderately bitter, rather boozy, a little woody-dry finish. Medium body, slightly fizzy mouthfeel, almost flat. Very strange brew, quite complex but relatively thin and boozy. Quite interesting to try, definitely not bad, quite unique.
