Ungstrup (11378), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jun 19, 2005 [Dr. Bill’s tasting @ Falling Rock, GABF 2004] An unclear orange beer with no head. The aroma is lovely sour from wild fermentation, and the flavor is an extremely sour wild fermented one with notes of grapefruit. Lovley. CaptainCougar (4664), Rockville, Maryland, USA Oct 19, 2004 Sampled at the GABF Dr. Bill tasting: Clear lightly hazy copper brown with a thin white head. Aroma is tart, fruity, full of cherries and a touch of acidity. Starts semi-sweet with a hint of fructose, turning much more dry, tart, and fruity, but not overpowering. Very well-balanced, authentic and enjoyable. Thanks again to Dr. Bill. JorisPPattyn (4500), Antwerpen, Belgium Oct 2, 2003 (lagertank - 2003) Hazy orange; slim yellowish stable head. Good Brettanomyces character, malonic, lactic and sage. Super mixture involving lactic, acetic, nearly lambiclike, vinous, phenolic and estery, wood, and yet a hint of sweetness of infermentables. Huge acidburn, sharp end. You gotta love it. acrdz (4376), Boulder, Colorado, USA Sep 29, 2003 Updated: Apr 28, 2007On tap at the Falling Rock. Slightly murky ruby orange appearance. Apricots and alcohol in the nose, with a smooth fruit flavor up front, filled with caramel, apricots and plums. Mid-drink is sour grapes and a wine-like palate, and the finish is very dry and tart, with some sour apples becoming very strong in the finish. bu11zeye (3780), Frisco, Texas, USA Oct 3, 2008 (Draught) Pours a lightly hazy golden body with small off-white head. Aroma of mold, mustiness, old books, and light sourness. Flavor of sour fruit upfront and then dries out quickly with the oak.
