Bottle. Cute pop. Hideous muddy sewage brown color. Aroma of fruit candy, musty closet, and even has some sweet malt notes. Body is thin, and juicy. Very much like a kid’s drink, something to put into a sippy cup. Very fruity flavors that are quite interesting. There is a mild bit of natural tartness but the high amount of sucrose-like sweetness overpowers the lingering acidity. Musty, adding character. Decent but extraordinarily sweet.

Dark ambery color, minimal opalescent body, small off white head what diminishes quickly. Must and grapes, some cherry in the aroma with some sweet acidity, minimal barnyard. Fine sourish flavor with a balanced fruity sweetness of must and grape, some cherries, some vinous tannin. Light balanced carbonation. Fine fruity aftertaste.

Bottled (from lahoublonniere.be). Deep ambery brown colour with small beige head. Aroma is sugar, some slight fruityness and a bit of sourness as well. Flavour is sourness, wood and some slight sugary notes as well as some sweet spicelike touches. Quite interesting.

Deep amber, muddy brown color with small fizzy head. Cherries, sugar candy in the aroma with some sour, acid overtones. Sweet mouthfeel with cherries, peaches, sugar candy, and some barnyard character. Tannic acid aftertaste with slight cider tartness. Smooth bodied with soft, natural carbonation.

Bottle. Pours brown with a one finger head. Aroma is sour, with notes of barnyard and cheese. Tasted fruity, with some leather, cherries, and funk with a nicely syrupy mouthfeel.

The smell is like teriaki, wood, sweet, fruit, and weird. The look is cloudy, muddy, nice off white head, and amber in color. The taste is sweet, candy like, caramel, and wood.

Bottle. Almost no head. Sour wine, vinegar and cheese aroma. Flavour starts very sweet. Cherry middle. Shocking sour finish leaves a strong cheese note on the tongue.

Brown in color with a medium white head. Aroma is of wood, caramelized onion, barbeque sauce, and a light sour smell. Taste is sweet and sugary with notes of wood and tangerine.
