Oct 15, 2007 75 cl bottle. Red brown color. Hints of raspberry, cherry, oak and dust in the aroma. Dry, oaky flavor with just a touch of tartness. lemon and a hint of raspberry. Dry, woody aftertaste. Nice one, without being spectacular.

Oct 11, 2007 Bottle huge thanks to cgarvieuk, had at home. Aroma is like yee haa, a proper tart really fruity flemish sour, floural hops and perfume try to piss me off but the sourness is enough. Taste is like malty red wine vinigar base with floural and oravl yeastyness coming through the carbonation is extreme to say the least, i had to swirl my glass for a mgood while to get it to the level i wanted it. Amazing beer, but get rid of the hops and carbonation and just give me the raw sourness!

Oct 8, 2007 on tap.
Hazy amber/red color with moderate off white head. This brew has a great balance of sour and malt. Also, contains the complexity to keep you drinking (earthy, oak, spice). Very full on sour mid way through, but finishes smoothly.

Oct 6, 2007 26 sept 07. 750mL bottle, red cap. Sour tart aroma. red garnet color, tan head, nice lacing. Malty, hints of cedar. Flavor is also very tart and acidic in the finish. Just like a red, fizzy champagne.

Oct 4, 2007 Bottled, definitely a kickass appearance once poured into my snifter glass. Smooth and creamy vanilla head with lots of bubbly carbonation. Hazy bronze color, nice hue. Acidic and vinous aroma of white grape, yeast and earth. Nutty background with the oak making a small statement, but not much. The flavor is missing something, can’t quite put my finger on it. It’s a teaser, the flavor does not linger at all. Fairly smooth on the palate. The aroma got me all excited for nothing. Hmm.
