| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 25, 2006 Bottle @ Kulminator. 2002 Vintage. Pretty happy to get my hands on this one. Green label, green glass, golden pour, huge head. Massively bubbly, slightly cloudy, fantastic stuff. Sour and complex. Champagney with an off-note somewhere between light cheese and fresh tire (I’ll go with astringency). Musty and challenging. Very funky, probably needs time to grow on me. Strange and beautiful. travita (2146), Frisco, Texas, USA

The look is cloudy, peached colored, with a light white head. Very inviting. The smell is very woody, oak, fruits, tart, old smelling, funk, and barnyard. Very nice.

href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Place/sweden/s target=blank>Akkurat in Stockholm, Sweden. Golden-orange in colour. Long lasting off-white head, great lacing. The aroma is tart, acidic upfront, sour apples, lemons, pears, light honey. The flavour was quite tart and acidic but beautifully balanced with lemon citrus, grapes and green apple skins, some funky cheese. Sour mouthfeel, medium body, high carbonation. Finishes long and tart, long apple sweeteness then very dry. Fantastic stuff, another gem from this brewery. altonbrownd (2070), Amsterdam, Netherlands
