Botella 2005, bottled October 2007. Quite hazy/muddy deep red brown colour, short fizzy head. Lovely sour fruity barn aroma. Great mouthfeel. Very sour fruity bit sweet woodish flavour with some barn. Long lasting chicken-butt-sour fruity pleasant dry finish. Tasty funky brew indeed.

Pours pale red. Nose is huge tart fruit, lactic sourness, musty basement, some rubber, leather. Flavor is semi sweet berries, super sour unripe fruit, vinegar, lactic acid, big funk and dusty musty basement.

2005 vintage shared by with a few guys from a local beer forum. pours hazed pinkish brown with some lingering soapy bubbles. very tart aroma. the fruit wasnt all that prominant but contributed to the long tart finish. really nice stuff but not my fav of the day.

The aroma is full of that familiar tart fruit, and in this case raspberry. The barnyard aromas are also present, presumably the yeast characters here. The lambic is full of that very tart and aromatic tang. The appearance is very dark ruby red, with little to no head whatsoever. The lambic is slightly hazy. The taste is very sour, a buzz of raspberry tang. It’s full of that pucker factor. The feel is light, very carbonated, and again very tart. It’s not for everyone, but provided you like lambics, it’s exceptional.

Wow.. this beer is simply awesome. It has sweets notes, but not too many. The dusty taste hits all points between sweet and sour and creates a coherent wonder of a beer. I had the 2007.

2002 vintage bottle . Ruby pour with a slight white head. Tart raspberry and earth aroma. Flavor is very sour, slight raspberry and citrus notes, any sweetness has aged out.

750ml bottle, vintage 2006, bottled in 2009, cloudy reddish hue, with a pinkyish head, but falls quickly, raspberry, sour red cheery, bretty, musty, burnt rubber, barnyard, horse blanket, cow web, dirty dust nose, with a wet woody oak accent, with some faint tart, acidic fieldberry aromas follow through on a medium-bodied palate with a superb tart, sour, acidic, raspberry fruity, musty, bretty character, with some acidic red berry sourness flavours with a nice tannic woody, oaky, young almondy pit notes, with a nice carbonation, leading towards a good tart, sour raspberry finish.

From Notes. 2003. Pinkish red. White carbonation. Raspberry skins and juice with plenty of Cantillon funk and tartness. Sparkling juice like body. Excellent. 8/4/8/4/16=4.0. I’ve had 2004 bottles recently that had more time on them than this 2003 rating (notes likely from ’06), and they were leaner, drier, more brett forward, more my style. The scores are from my more recent samples.
