dreadnord (132) - Castel Volturno, ITALY - JAN 6, 2012
Pours burgundy and hazy into my tulip with a small fluffy pink head. Nose is dark berries, cherry, raspberry and strawberry with lots of funk, mold and sourness. Taste is amazing. Sweet through out with a big mouth puckering sour punch right in the middle that lasts to the end. This is amazingly tart. Mouthfeel is light and clean. This is a such a good beer and at 5% I can drink it all day.

OliverG (244) - Montreal, Quebec, CANADA - JAN 6, 2012
05-01-12 Petite bouteille: Couleur rouge pâle, avec peu de mousse et petite effervescence. Très légers arômes de cerises et d’acidité. Petite touche de sucrée et d’acidité. Corps léger, croustillante et mince. Se boit facilement, mais à mon goût, manque de corps et de saveurs.

bergstaden (452) - Røros, NORWAY - JAN 2, 2012
Reddish pink with a white head - sour berry aroma - taste is of sour cherries and the berry sourness continues into a long finish, and there is no sweetness at all - this was very good

375 ml, 2011 bottling. Ok do I have to drink all fruit lambics fresh. This is simply sensational. A new Glarus type cherry flavor behind cantillon gueuze. Love it, not aging these beers anymore
