A Mes rate: Should this really be on here? Is it even a beer yet? Buttery diacetyl with a thick and muddy body. Was something interesting to try but not something I would want to drink again. It was like drinking a glass of wort. Funny story to tell... My brother tried this and along with everyone else at our large table thought it was pretty awful. Later on while he was down the other end of the table Patrick (sitting next to Frank Boon) passes him a drink (De Troch something or other) saying ’here you go Nick, this is bloody awful, you drink it’. Nick tries it, agrees it is poor but immediately points out "you should try this stuff we have down the other end, it’s f**king rank, everyone says it’s the worst beer they have ever tried, hang on I’ll get you some’. He comes back to our end of the table and asks for the glass of Meertse. Sim gives it him but points out that it is probably best he keeps his mouth shut and explains who it is that Pat is sitting next to. Nick looks up the other end of the table to Pat, pulls a silly face, puts his thumbs up and sits down. Piss funny. The beer was as I say interesting from a geeky point of view. I love Boon and have done for many years. Frank is a very nice guy and a true legend of everything Lambic. Oh and he bought us a beer too. Cheers.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Starker Karamellgeruch. Milder Antrunk, ein leichtes Karamellaroma ist präsent. Wässrig-süß, etwas getreidig, eigenartig. Wasserabgang mit leichtem Hopfenaroma, weiterhin gut erkennbar mit Karamellnote. Interessant!

3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
Draught Muddy, murky beer with of course no head. Sweetish nose, worts, speculoos , burnt cakerind. Like very young, sweet worts, unhopped still. A bit of candi sugar, malts, but dusty old casks. Despite the fact that this is totally fermented out (only linked glucosides left), the Bretts not included, this is still pretty well-bodied, slick. Extremely interesting stuff. It’s not what one would drink daily, or during an evening, but it is not un-nice.

It all makes sence now, pat handed me this and started raving about it. Malty dead flat raw malts, muddy looking. A strange thing to think that this actually turns into a kriek in the end.

A lower alcohol versions of his regular gueuze, Pierre was seving this one from two different oak barrels during the opening weekend. One was 2 months old and the other was 1 year. The youngster was bright cloudy yellow with a medium large bubble head that settled quickly. Aroma was lemon, taste was sweet. The 1 year had a few bubbles, hazy, an aroma of lemon rind and both lemon and grapefruit in the taste. Very easy drinking.
