Poured a hazy golden color. Nice funky yeast aroma. Plenty of leather and horse blanket to go around. The flavor started sweet and tasted like artificial sweetner. The a very dry harsh bitterness. The aroma started off great but went downhill fast.

Aroma holds bannna, cream and a tart mash of fruits. Yellow with a creamy, diminishing white head. Funky chinese baby corn flavor in the fore. Medium bitterness and sharp carbonation. Tart white fruits and a mellow funkiness that lingers well into the aftertaste. Pretty enjoyable.

Apr 2, 2006 Updated: Apr 21, 2006Pig Nun:
Corked, explodes out of bottle, pours a five+ finger pillowy white head that takes forever to fade leaving a good lace. Cloudy amber color. Good carbonation and medium bodied. Alcohol nose. Starts with a sweet alcohol flavor, then raisins, nice finish, hints of an alcohol aftertaste. $10.05 for a 750ml bottle from Colonial Spirits Acton, Ma.
Spoonwacker:
Pours a two finger, thick white head that barely fades leaving gobs of lace. Cloudy amber color. Medium carbonation and medium bodied. Lemony nose. Starts sweet and sour with a brandy flavor, 35IBU is just right, finish is spicey and prickly, good beer. $10.05 for a 750ml bottle from Colonial Spirits Acton, Ma.

Pours a copper body and a tall and rocky white cap of head. WOW... The aroma offers a terrific blend of sweet bready malts, acidic wild yeasts, and earthy bittering hops. The flavor brings feral suggestions of beet-sugars, caramel, a biscuity- tannic- doughy tartness, oak, and off-centered thoughts hinting towards apples, pears, and plums. Oddly, there is the crisp sweetness of red apple as well as a tart dry suggestion of wild green apple. The palate offers a wonderful binding of chewy grains rustic yeast… & It all plays out like a well refined champion! - I TOTALLY dig it!!!

Mar 27, 2006 Updated: Apr 16, 2008Reinaert Flemish Wild Ale from bottle. Did, in fact, taste like a Belgian barnyard. In light of all the other great Belgian and Trappist ales, this one is pretty low down the totem pole.

Well-hazed golden with a fizz-away head. Sharp yeast aromas are cheesish with stinky feet and lemon over peanut brittle. A fluffy mouth quickly disperses yeasty tartness, but only for an instant as sharp astringence pulls it back away just as fast. Grapeskin finish with sharp cheddar and pepper in the aftertaste. Yeast fans will be intrigued, from those who like a basic Belgian Golden thru those who crave the profile of a Flemish Brown.

Mar 13, 2006 I had the Pig Nun. I rolled the bottle around in my hand because the yeast inside was plentiful and powerful. Then set it down on the desk to grab my glass and the cork blew out of the bottle. HIERONYMOUS! I love wild yeasts. This is more Flemish Sour than Belgian Strong as others have noted. I very much like this.
