5 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20 Betty (235) - Walgett, NSW, - FEB 3, 2009The perfect beer. I hope that people who don’t understand lambics stop pulling the average rating of this fantastic liquid down. A stinky, deep, ineffable beauty of a beer.

Shared with the delicious Domnik and delectable Danyul. ’The only unblended real lambic you can find anywhere’. What does that even mean?

Bottle at Brewdog Brum. Pretty flat. Has a pleasant sour aroma, but not over the top. Flatness takes it down a notch or two, but it’s a solid to excellent Lambic.

Thanks, Tommy. My first lambic-unblended...which would have meant I had rated all beer styles..but then ratebeer had to add a few styles :) Anyway, sharp acidic vinegar, vinous, sour apple aroma. Very nice. Not much head. Taste is sour, not a very lively palate. Nice beer.
