Commercial Description:
Unfiltered.
De houten ton is een Gallische uitvinding, die gebruikt werd voor het gisten als voor het bewaren van wijn als bier. Ten opzichte van de amforen hadden ze veel voordelen : ze waren lichter, konden een grotere inhoud bevatten, waren minder fragiel en waren ook nog handiger, want men kon ze rollen. De tonnen en pijpen die Breughel schilderde kunnen zo afkomstig zijn uit het tonnenmagazijn van elke Pajottenlandse lambikbrouwer (of daar nog staan ...). Houten tonnen werden algemeen gebruikt tot het begin van de vorige eeuw.

Bottle thanks to Drewbeerme, I’ve been sitting on this bottle for quite some time, maybe a year. Hazy orange amber with medium white head. Aroma is funky, tart, lemony, slight earthy. Medium sour, more funky, tart, medium earthy, slight cherry, all very light and drinkable but at the same time sour and fruity. Medium bodied with slight pucker. What an amazing beer.

traded for this one with Hogtown Harry. Hazy golden color lively carbonation nose is farmhouse, kinda earthy notes, and some definate lactic notes. flavor follows suit, lactic sour but excedinly drinkable some earthy notes as well in there. Very dry finish but very very good!!

From a bottle poured a slightly hazy straw color with a good amount of head. Nice tart flavor with a good tart lingering finish.

oro non molta schiuma ma piuttosto persistente arimi tipici ma non aggressivi in bocca mediamente acida leggero citrico piuttosto amara veramente buona ma non esaltante da assggiare forse un po più vecchia

Burnt sugar sour crème brûlée nose. Hazy amber color with soapy medium head. Biting malt vinegar sourness, some bitter lemon peel/pith bitterness. There is some faint caramel malt sweetness lurking deep in the background. Huge carbonation, medium body that ends up finishing with a thin body and a satisfying warm tart burn. Style is an acquired taste, and this is a fantastic example.

37.5cl bottle-pours a big foamy white head and amber color with effervescence. Aroma is dry yeast, sour, some medium malt. Taste is dry yeast, sour/vinegar, some medium malt. Nicely done, but not my taste. Occasional. Thanks to decaturstevo for sharing.

Couleur cuivrée, orangée. Donne un peu de mousse blanche au service, mais laisse une dentelle riche. Légèrement voilée. Parfum de pomme, de levures et de champignons frais, On sent bien le caractère surette de la bière. Le goût est légèrement sucré, amer et suret ensuite, une vraie cascade de différents registres de saveurs. Le palais est rond, bien mousseux et frais. Je l’ai bue bien froide, après avoir couper l’herbe et je vous donne ma parole que cette bière rafraîchit et désaltère mieux que n’importe qu’elle Lager ou Pilsner! Fantastique, c’est différent de la GRANDE majorité des bières, à essayer!

Bottle. Pours perfect - huey orange with tons of floaters, its white head retains throughout session. Nose is farmhouse funk. Mouth is eye openingly ripe, dry, fruity (lemon) and sharp. Spritzer carbonation brings everything together. Acts like a Flemish Sour. Wonderful.
