Bottle shared at Toronado 22nd Anniversary, damn expensive but worth it. Tart berry aroma with mild sweetness and some funk. Flavor really incredible and long-lasting, tart yet slightly sweet raspberry and cherry, maybe some other berries, and wood. Palate awesomely dry and sharp. An awesome fruit lambic overall, one of the best I’ve tried yet.

Bottle thanks to nick for sharing at SDBF’09. Red with a hint of brown pour slightly cloudy. Aroma is of raspberries, and cherries mostly tart but has some sweetness to it. Flavor is well done with a slight oak finish

750ml bottle thanks to my friend Julien at Delirium Café. Pours red with a small head. Aroma is big raspberry with hints of cherries. Little tart. Taste is tart but not too much. Big cherries and some raspberries. A bit acidic but not much. The keyword here is balance. it really felt as a whole while having the raspberries and the cherries "fighting" for your palate and nose. Really dry finish. A really special brew dranked with great folks. Nice memories there.

Bottle shared at gears81’s wedding, Congratulations Jake!! Pours a beautiful translucent ruby color. Aroma is a light raspberry and lemon peel. Flavor is soft raspberry flavor with a little tartness but a nice sour finish. Not too funky, but more acidic and fruity. Carbonation is lively and and perfect for the style.

Colore rubino carico,un pò opaco,poco o niente schiuma(l’ho già notato in altre lambic,dev’essere tipico del genere).Aroma forte:ciliegie,lamponi,sentori di cantina.In bocca è un pò aspra,astringente e agrumata.Molto dolce si sentono appieno i lamponi.Equilibrata perfettamente.Finale lungo.Che dire d’altro? Praticamente la perfezione del genere!

Bottled. Dark reddish coloured. Unclear. Light reddish head. Raspberries, sweetness, earth and some marcipan in the aroma. Flavour full of earth and raspberries. Acidic touch and sourness with a light sweetish touch. Has some light barnyard notes. Full bodied. Very dry. Sourish fruitsweetness in the end. Very very nice.
