3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Tap at Moeder Lambic Fontainas, 29/04/13.
Hazed dark amber with a mahoosive light beige head.
Nose lacks depth, sour/tarte fruits, hint of caramel, soured berries, touch of balsamics.
Taste comprises tarte berry fruits, lightly soured strawberries, light sugar, touch funky.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation.
Decent enough sour but there are plenty of better ones out there!

4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours dark amber with a thick tan head. Aroma is sour lemon and yeast. Taste is sour lemon up front. The oak really comes out in the mid palate and everything combines for a mild cherry liqeur and faint vanilla finish. Really good.
3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap in Roma. Pours a bit hazy reddish appearance with a tan head. Lacto, mild vinegar, cherry, vanilla, fairly oaky aroma. Somewhat juicy, rich tart cherry, a bit acetic, oaky, raspberry, slightly juicy, apricot fruity flavor. Pretty interesting but it doesn’t blow my mind.
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
On tap @Barcelona Beer Festival 2013. Some berries and tart aromas, among some hoppy ones. Pours amber, almost clear. Medium body, average carbonation, crispy testure. Taste is mild sourness, fruity, some sweet and caramel. Very well balanced and enjoyable. Really nice one.

UPDATED: MAR 22, 2013 Thanks Cecile for letting me try this one! Anyway, poured a dark red body with an off white head. Creamy full aroma, berry jam. Fresh sourish berry-like taste, creamy, slightly vinuous yet without some huge notes of that, the tannins I guess. Surprisingly good stuff, I’d definitely have it again (and again... and again)...

Per ora la mia preferita di questo birrificio!
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Belle robe rousse et limpide, mousse onctueuse et de bonne tenue aux reflets acajou. Au nez, les notes d’élevage sous bois sont bien présentes (épicées + balsamiques) sans masquer un côté fruits rouges très amusant (cerise griotte). Bouche : attaque sur des arômes presque secondaires (champignons de Paris, sous-bois), acidité très bien contenue, beaucoup de rondeur en milieu de bouche. Texture légère. Finale épicée et fraîche. Bonne longueur sur des notes rappelant la palette d’un vin de Syrah (notes viandeuses et fumées).
