Bottle. Pours a cloudy yellow/orange color with a thin white head. Aroma is sour and earthy. Flavor is sweet and sour. Nice tangyness.

Certainly the best beer in the Petrus collection. A lot of taste, heavy sourness and a little sweetness. Hazy amber colour.

A golden color with a white head. Aroma contains some yeasty funkiness, vinegar, lemons, and a bit of barn. The flavor is extremely sour with some yeast, vinegar, citrus, a bit of a metallic note but not too much. Sour out da arse and full of vinegar in the finish. Overall awesome for sour heads.

330ml bottle. Pours light gold with a small head. Aroma is a sharp woody sourness with a little sweetness. Taste has a light ashy, vinegar start. Sharp, ashy sour vinegar finish.

This beer gave me a new appreciation to sours! It pours like a very light lager, very little head, with overwhelming citrus and tart cherry aromas. The taste reminds me more like a New Zealand Sauv. Blanc. Great flavors of tart cherries, green apple, and lemon. A perfect tartness, and very wet and refreshing on the finish. A wonderful beer, but is more like a wine.

33cl bottle, BB 18/07/2013.Dorée, col beige fin. Arôme de chêne, grains; houblon légèrement fruité. Profile comparé à la veille brune présente nettement plus d’aigreur et de présence du chêne, beau pétillant, note houblon sec, fruité sur une pointe d’épice et ce profile chêne boisé qui confère une fine de bouche aigre très appréciable.

Pours a golden copper with no head. Aroma of vinegar and oak. Taste follows, bringing in moderate tartness. Nice beer glad I got to try on tap ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Pours a vibrant, clear pale gold with a soft white head that fades quickly. Aroma of oak, light vinegar, citrus, faint pale malt sweetness, and some yeast funk. Flavor is nicely sour, oaky, citrus, dough, and vinegar with a decent rounded out body to it that finishes dry. Getting a touches of alcohol through the finish.

12 oz. from Chuck’s. This is by far the most sour beer that I have ever tasted. Looks like the urine from a terribly dehydrated person (how fitting) but tastes like a flavor explosion. Pucker up!

33cl. bottle from Bitter Virtue, Southampton. I’m sorry I can’t see what all the fuss is about. Looks very nice, but this is not to my taste. Too sour and a tannin kick.

Aroma is vinegar and sour fruit. Pours gold with quite a bit of setiment with a small white head. Taste is sour apples and vinegar. It keeps getting better after every drink. Very good.
