Schiuma quasi inesistente, colore rosso opalescente, aroma acido, citrico, nota fruttata, al palato corpo medio e carbonazione nulla, note acetiche, acide, frutti rossi, dolcezza bilanciata da un finale acido e fruttato molto elegante, questa birra mi ha intrigato!

On tap @ Beer Temple (Del Ducato tap takeover). Dark red color, rather murky. No head. Aroma’s: cherries, almonds, tart, wood, with a light sweetness retronasal. Flavor is medium sour, cherries, hint of sweetness. Medium bodied. Enough carbonation. Almonds in the finish. Pretty good.

Red with little to no head. Aroma is sour and cherries. Nice tart dry taste with a long finish. Good sour.

Bue au mondial 2013: Très acide avec des tanins enrobants. En bouche pas très actif, fruité, moyennement sucré...de ce que je me souviens.

Une bouteille offerte par Kevin B. Thanks again! Numéro 4786. Cuvée 2010. Meilleure avant 2050. Une bière ambrée, sans vie et bien embrouillée. Un nez de fruits acides, d’amandes caramélisées, de fleurs microbiennes et de noix de coco. Des saveurs faiblement maltées qui sont dominées par des saveurs fruitées très aigres. Le fût contribue largement à cette sensation. Le chêne parfume les flaveurs. En bouche, un corps amorphe mais huileux. En finale, une attaque en règle des tissus de ma langue.

Pours red/amber with virtually no head, and the small had that appears disappears really fast (made me remind of really old beers when pouring). Aroma of sourness, a bit of sour cherries. Taste is mostly acidic, vinegar like, with a decent amount of sour cherries and some oakiness, not too exciting at all. Mouthfeel was horrible. This beer felt oily in the mouth, leaving a layer of oiliness which stayed for a while and then turned into something astringent. In the throat it felt like vinegar. Gave me a head ache for a good 2 hours. The sour cherries were there but still a lot of work on this one. Way overpriced at 10 euro for a small bottle.

Cuvee 2010
Clear caramel colour, slight white head. Quite sour aroma, fruity, citrus, cherry, reminding of Oud Bruin. Sour flavour, citric acid, acetic, lemon peel, wood. Quite dry. Light carbonation. Tart finish, wood, vanilla and lemon peel.
Very elegant.

bottle shared by tom10101, many thanks man - mondial de la bière: 0, tommy: 1. pours hazy copper-red with a very small off-white head. red fruitiness, wood, grass, moderate but fairly present acetic notes, underlying caramel, spices, some raisins and herbs, some treacle sweetness. soft carbonation, light to medium body - oily, fairly present acetic acid that cuts through that sweetness - slightly unbalanced. a nice ’’beer day’’ ending - enjoyable for sure!

Più oud bruin che kriek, torbida, già al naso profumi di cantina, ciliege. In bocca molto complessa con frutta rossa in primo piano e una buona acidità che prende ben presto il sopravvento. Birra non per tutti ma davvero importante negli aromi, ai livelli di un vino per gli amanti del genere. Ottima con formaggi stagionati.

Amber colour, Slight fruity sour aroma. Taste is sour, fruity, dry, not bad.
