4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20Notes florals i cítriques en l’aroma, que és molt potent, es pot sentir l’aroma a una certa distància. Sembla més una Ale Sour que una Biere Garde. Bastant seca amb una acidés molt suau. Tosc de poma verda. Bon cos i bona sensació en boca.

Sample at the Aficionado’s "Hidden Gems" beer tasting on 05/24/2013: Pours a hazy golden color with a medium thick off-white head that diminishes slowly. Small patches of lacing on the glass. Aroma of citrus, oak and malt. Medium-bodied with flavors of bretty oak, apricot and biscuit malt. The finish is fruity with an oaky and herbal aftertaste. Pretty good all around.

Bottle (750 ml). Shared by Julien, Pier-Luc & Benoit, thanks! Pours cloudy straw color with a small white head and some lacing. Aroma is fruity (peach, lemon, apricot, pear) with wood/oak, tart and funky notes. Taste is slightly sweet and moderately sour with, again, lots of fruits (peach, lemon), wood, funky notes and an underlying malt presence. Light to medium body. Moderate carbonation. Very good refreshing Sour (Bière de Garde?), but there’s something missing to make it a great beer.

4.3 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20
750mL shared at Meridian Pint during CBC celebrating my 5500th rating. Pours a glowing, low haze peach color with minimal acid cut foam. Nose is brilliant peach/nectarine, juicy, fresh, like smelling fresh fuzzy peach juice after a bite. Taste is bright starfruit, peach/nectarine, and I’m told crabapple. Palate is perfectly lactic sour. Bright, fresh, brilliant nectar fruit flavor all around. Incredible.
4.5 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
From the bottle at Meridian Pint. Pours a slightly-hazy light peach color. Nose is light funk, wheat, and heavy stone fruit. Reminiscent of fruity batches of Fantôme Saison. Fruity and tart with a bit of body. Really exceptional and super smooth for 7.5%. An amazing beer that I was absolutely stunned by.
