Draught at Chez Moeder Lambic Fontainas. Funny apricot aroma, faint peach too. Fruit. Dark yellow and hazy. Has a whiet head, fully lasting. Flavor is light sweet and moderate acidic. Dry texture and light astringent.

Koelschtrinker (6544) - Köln (Cologne), North Rhine-Westphalia, GERMANY - SEP 9, 2011
Seichter, dafür natürlicher und etwas süßer Fruchtgeruch. Im Antrunk überwiegt dann natürlich die Säuerlichkeit, die zwar gering startet, hier aber schon einen minimalen Essigton aufweist. Im Verlauf wird die Säure aber auch die Fruchtigkeit intensiver, hierbei behauptet sich die Aprikose erstaunlich gut gegen die nun intensive Säure. Die Essignoten flammen dann wieder auf, so wird die Fruchtigkeit dann doch noch in den Hintergrund gestellt. Zum Schluss dann auch Zitrone, im Nachgeschmack sehr trocken. Ein von vorne bis hinten intensives Bier, ich habe selten zuvor ein so saures und dennoch ausgewogenes Bier getrunken. Zudem kommen die Fruchtnoten gut zur Geltung. Genial! 13/14/13/14/13/14

This one pours a nice yellow that was slightly peachy coloured. the aroma is sweet and refreshing. the taste is quite nice is good, I would like to try this one aged to let the sweetness down and the sourness to come out

BOLTZ7555 (1909) - Phoenix, Arizona, USA - SEP 3, 2011
Had both an ’05 and ’08 @ Dak’s Cantillon Tasting. The ’08 was, by far, the most sour, jaw-locking, mouth-puckering, eye-crossing brew I’ve had to date. If you haven’t had or enjoyed sours before attempting this, you literally might implode...and I don’t want to clean that up! Aroma and flavor show tons of lemon peel, grapefruit pit, tart unripened apricot/peach, and oak. Imagine biting into a slightly green/firm apricot, scraping your teeth against the pit. You make a face but want to take another bite, don’t you?
