Jan 18, 2009 Bottle. Pours sparkling and hazy orange with a small, rocky, white head, somewhat lasting with fair lacing. Aroma is average malt (hay, straw), average hops (grass, grapefruit, lemon), heavy yeast (horse blanket, barnyard, soap, earth) with notes of grape, plum, wood, and wine. Light bodied, mineral texture, average carbonation, and a sour finish. Average duration, light sweetness, heavy acidity and sourness.

Jan 9, 2009 Pours a murky but glowing orange/yellow with a creamy white froth that fades into some clump fine bubbles. Sweet tart and sour aroma with notes of pepper and a cognac roundness. Sweet sugary, tart, lightly sour, lots of barrel, some funky cheesiness, really nice cognac notes. Strong flavors yet still quite balanced.

Dec 20, 2008 Great lambic.. Only real downside of this bottle was that it tasted slightly less good than a glass of lambic served straight from a cognac cask I happened to be permitted to taste at the cantillon brewery. I presume that barrel must be somewhere in the 50N-4E, but as a single cask brew it was even better.

Dec 7, 2008 Updated: Jan 8, 2009Exceptional lambic. Pours a murky light orange/amber with a pencil thin white head. Aroma is sour, funky, and fruity. Flavor is nice, funky, farmhouse, wood, vanilla. Lots of fruit notes, but they stay in the background. Tart and dry, but in a great way. Very complex. I liked this one a lot.

Dec 5, 2008 Pours murky muddy straw yellow with a bit of white head. It smells a bit like pears. Very nice barrel and wine notes. The flavor is bretty with some vomit notes. Very oaky which is reflected in the finish as well. Pretty good.
