The aroma is sweet with the sharpness from wild fermentation but also with som weird notes; is it some kind of flower, elder flower perhaps? The aroma is not good for a lambic. The color of the beer is amber and slightly unclear with a fine head. The flavor is sweet and sour, but without the bite that lambics have to have. It also lacks the metallicness that is carachteristic for lambics. But instead it the elder flower flavor. And the flavor disappears extremely fast. All in all a thin boring lambic. I am puzzled by the ingredient list - it includes yeast???? in a lambic?

Bottled. Dark amber. Aroma of glue and thinner. Megasweet and one dimensional. Odd sawdust flavour. Strange, and as authentic as all other De Trochs...

(Bottle 25 cl) Dark golden with a small head with a great fizz. Starts sweet only to be relieved by tartness - and then the two impressions blend beautifully into a row of incredibly refined flavours of which nuts seems to dominate my buds. Excellent and several points better than the Chapeau fruit beers. 280598

25 cl bottle, thanks to BelJohansen. pours dark orange with a lacing white head. Aroma is light fruity acidic and sweet overripe fruity. Flavour is sugarish sweet and caramel malty, light acidic note - much like flemish sour. Light woody and towards a light smoked note. Ends with a citric to acidc note. Nice.

Bottle at ZBF 2008. Clear amber coloured with a small white head. Sweet aroma of fruits, wood and glue. Very sweet flavour of fruits with notes of wood. Too sweet for me.
