3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
(Bottle 33 cl) This is 4,5% ABV. Reddish brown, clear with a small head. Almost no body, a bit watery with some slight, metallic notes being the only obvious flavour. Prettty much no bitterness. A touch of wine vinegar with a small underlying sweetness. But formidably quenching. 190998
3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Light chestnut colour, relatively weak head. The aroma is scarce; syrupy, raspberry, metallic. Much richer in the flavour, which is juicy, sweetish (like burnt sugar) and citric acidic. A bit ticklish, a bit filling on the palate.

Vintage 2002. Dusty but lovely bottle. The ale is more fresh and "cleaner" than expected. Fruity sour finsih. A nice sour ale.

Cloudy red, low creamy brown head.
Wonderfull complexity - cheese, cherry, rye, dust, wood.
Citric aftertaste, sparkly mouthfeel.
4.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20
Nice balence of fruity and sour. Pleasing dark brown, no haze, creamy, but short lasting head. Light lacing.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Dec 2004, Swedish dregs, Alts etc tasting w/MartinT, tiggmtl and Rastacouere #9. 33 cl bottle. Muddy brown with a smallish lasting wisp of foam...grapes and black currants dominate the sweet-sour fruity vinous nose...sweet initial flavor, salty middle, sour apple finish...highly drinkable, rustic and slightly woody at the last; far from a great example, but pleasant and simple.
