| 1.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 1/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Mar 20, 2008 I thought I would try another one of these to see if they are any better. Unfortunately, not. This one smells like a horse farm and tastes like hoppy piss water. Not as vile as the other one, but still bad. renffisch (514), london, Greater London, England

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Mar 15, 2008 Feb 04 bottle. Pours a hazy golden yellow with nice lacy white head. This was really tasty. Very acidic with citrus, lemon, apple, hints of berry, pepper, barnyard funkiness, and peach. Also some oak and leather. Very dry and very sour, this is not an easy to drink beer, but it is very complex. Miksu (2215), Jyväskylä, Finland

Very acidic aroma with grapefruit, lemon, strawberry, sulphur and perfumed-flowery notes. Acidic, grapefruity, lemony and mentholy flavor with wild yeast bitterness. Highly carbonated. Excellent, balanced and very satisfying! We tasted this and 3 Fontainen vintage oude gueuze 2004 in a same session but I prefer this. pintsize (1042), Austin, Texas, USA

Very sweet vinegar smell - not too tart, but mostly vinegar in the nose. Cloudy yellow orange in appearance. Quite tart in the flavor but not much more to it. It is sour but just not as balanced as I wanted. Vinegar becomes more and more prevalent as it warms. bgburdman9 (822), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 8, 2008 Finally tried this one out of a 12.7 ounce bottle. Aroma had some solid funkiness, citrus, and some yeast to it. Flavor was not all that sour which was nice when you are drinking a whole bottle yourself. Pretty tastey overall.
