Bottle. Pours a deep hazy brown with a small white head that all but vanishes in the first moments in the glass. Musky attic, raspberries, vinegar, wood, and a light funk. Medium body. Tart, and an interesting back and forth interplay with tart and sweet raspberries and bretty funk. Finishes with that lovely long lingering Cantillon acid.

Jun 25, 2009 Hazy strawberry/amber color with a thin white head. Aroma of wheat, spice, vinegar, and sour fruits/berries. This beer was about halfway through a pretty good beer tasting and I just love these outrageously sour beers at that point for a good switch-up. Taste is almost painfully sour raspberry but I couldn’t stop drinking it.

Jun 8, 2009 Bottled 375ml. Courtesy of kappldav123. It pours a pinkish copper beer with a quick diminishing fizzy off white head. The aroma is mainly of ammonia and raspberry. Very sour taste. Not enough balanced to my liking. Dry finish. Thanks kappldav123!

Jun 6, 2009 Bottle. Pours just like described in the description above, onion-skin color, just a touch of pink showing through, no head at all. First whiff hits you with a sour note, vinegar and a very subtle horse blanket hiding in the background. Sour notes make you pucker a bit, vinegar note is still there but not as noticeable, raspberries barely make their presence known. Finish is acidic, sour and really takes it’s toll on your tastebuds.

Jun 6, 2009 Updated: Aug 5, 2009pours ruby, fine pink head.
very strong fresh raspberry aroma with the dry sour lambic-y-ness underneath. also lots of yeast.
taste is more sour than expected with a bright raspberry body. finishes very dry, with a long sour and candy-sweet finish.
fizzy, but not overly carbonated.
this is good, the fruit provides sweetness and flavor without taking over the beer, but it is so damn sour.

Jun 6, 2009 2000 vintage @ DHVL. Pours orange with a quickly dissipating white head. Aroma is very sweet raspberry, which is a bit curious for a lambic this old. Well, the taste is radically different and massively sour. Some raspberry taste in there, but man is it funky. Moderate lingering sour. Very tasty stuff.
