Light amber in color with no head. Aroma is of Strawberries and light grain with a little funk. Flavor is of strawberries as well with some sourness and funk.

Crushed with Jakebra. Sandpaper tongue dryness, man. Excellentness, awesomeness, sourness. Dig it. Not absolutely amazing, but pretty sexy. Sour strawberry funkiness is very pleasing.

Smell is fresh strawberries, sour, funkiness, and pretty good. Look is orange clearish with a thin head. Taste is sour, strawberry, yeast, funk. Very dry. Sort of thin. Pretty decent.

holy crap. i guess this is my first true lambic, and i was NOT prepared for it. pours totally flat and smells completely unlike any other beer i’ve had before (smells like yogurty urine).. maybe slightly of sour strawberries too. i work in a research lab and it feels like drinking a culture of E. coli or something similarly rancid. girlfriend says it tastes like bile vomit. my instincts are kicking in and i think they’re telling me not to drink this anymore. but i keep telling myself it’s an acquired taste and will drink it anyway

bottle shared by rustychiles...

pours hazy/nearly cloudy orange with no head whatsoever. quite tart and dry smelling... cinder block, pale malty sweetness, flowers and dry grass. the flavor is of unripe berries, tart apples, minerals and earth. there*s some faint cinnamon spiciness on the finish which is amplified as it warms. it*s clean and drying on the palate with a light body.

not too complex. but, for the price it*s quite good. nice beer to accompany lunch. or, in my case, before work! 7/3/7/3/16/3.6

Bottle shared by rustychiles. Hazy gold pour with a thin fizzy head. Sour fruity geuze-like aroma with a bit of yeast and funk. Under-ripe strawberries and apples in the flavor. Very low carbonation. Pretty good. Thanks Rusty!

Blom (778) - Odense, DENMARK - DEC 19, 2008
Hazy orange with absolutely no head. Nice aroma of strawberries, tart horse and sourness. The flavour really impressed me! It is higly drinkable with clear notes of sweet strawberries contrasting with the acid and sour lambic underneath.

corby112 (1862) - philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA - DEC 3, 2008
Pours a light blush/ amber color with a very thin, fizzy pinkish-white head that quickly dissapears. Funky aroma with hints of strawbeery and cream as well as an earthy, oak presence. Slightly watered down, with very little carbonation and a slightly funky, earthy oak flavor. Not very acidic and very easy to drink with with a slight puckering strawberry, floral flavor.
