Orange cream pour. Sweet candy nose. Taste is exactly like a candied plum. If that appeals to you, then you’ll love it. If it doesn’t, you’ll hate it. There’s no middle ground with this beer.

I actually liked this one better than the rest of the de Troch lambics. Something about the mirabelle plum aroma and flavor mixed well with the lambic tartness.

Yum yum! This slides down so soft and sweet with a scintilating fruit tang and a shivery little fizz that it’s gone before you know it. You are then left bereft as a howling naked orphan wanting more.

375ml, capped and corked. Brewed with natural plums. Golden pour. No aroma of plums, it smells more like Duck Sauce. ChainGangGuy says off-brand Catsup. Kinda smells like day old sunny-side up eggs from Waffle House, covered in mustard. Flavor of a flat, sun-exposed can of Mountain Dew. Sweet and tart, spoiled sour, kinda tart. I LOVE IT! Distant sweet, tart plums. Sugary sweet and fun. Mostly just if Honey Mustard.

Bottle. Aroma of tart and sweet fruits, some oak. A bit more oak in the flavor to go along with a tart base with balancing sugar. For me, the sweetness was nowhere near as overpowering as it is for others, and I found the beer to be pleasantly tart and oaky. Yes, this is clearly sweetened, but my tongue seems not to be offended by such a sacrilege.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy orange with a small white head. Aroma of sweet fruit (I don’t specifically get plum, maybe apple and pear). Flavor is similar to a punched up apple juice. Slight sour prickliness. A touch of oak/wood in the finish. Very drinkable and enjoyable. Not spectacular nor that complex but super tasty! Certainly far from a nasty drain pour. These bad ratings are just sad. I don’t understand them. I was initially frightened to try this beer, but now I know not to believe the silly warnings in the future.
