De Cam Oude Lambiek

courtesy of Toni Flükiger - pours a hazy dark red-amber colour with little foam left; aroma of cobweb, rhubarb and hay; low carbonation and medium-bodied, late and increasing acidity; very dry and citrusy aftertaste with weird metallic notes

Aroma: summer fruits, apricots and peaches, lots of yeast, honey, wheat and grains
Appearance: murky-golden brown, little head, no lacing
Flavor: honey, mint, earthiness, summer fruits, yeast, and wheat
Palate: smooth and tart, lots of yeast, lite tart/slightly lactic aftertaste

Draught Clear, yellow body. Aroma of wood, grapes, white wine. Moderately sour, lightly bitter flavour. Quite subtle, not too complex.

750ml bottle 2000 vintage consumed in Brugge (also had 2 year old draft at Weekend of Spontaneous Fermentation 2008, which scored only 3.2)
Pours wheat colored orange with a small white head. Mild funky cheese and wheat in the nose, creamy and funky character all around, really well developed. Very mellow, and definitely more centered on the mild funk/feet/cheese than on fruit or citrus. Acidity is medium-low, the texture is very smooth and creamy and rich, and a small frothiness builds into a drying leather and peach rind finish. Very flavorful and rich, aged well. Dense nose, dense flavor.

Thx for another great tasting, Kim (beljohansen): golden amber, short head, notes of leather, grapefruit, barnyard and wood. Acid and sour, but not much. Missing some sparkling. short lasting aftertaste.
