On draught downstairs in the Belgian section of the Thirsty Monk in Asheville. Pours golden with a light head that leaves spotty lace. The nose is of green apple. Flavor is dry, almost vinous, and lots of unripened green apple. The finish is dry and acidic. The mouthful is tart and dry on the palate. Nice sour ale.

Got a bottle of this at Pizzeria Paradiso in Alexandria the other day. Served in a tulip. Pours a clear golden-apricot color with a short white head and some nice spotty lacing on the way down. The nose brings forward a bit of green apple and hay, along with a good amount of funk. Light funk, but good in terms of how forward the beer was with it. The flavor brought some acidity and apple skin. Golden color was the first hint that this isn’t really an Oud Bruin, and the flavor is another. Bright acidity and some light stone fruits. This was a really interesting beer and I’d certainly have it again. Serving type: bottle Reviewed on: 06-13-2011

An appetizing and very drinkable sour ale. The pour is bright orange brown body with a thick foamy white head of about two/three fingers. The aroma is light sourness with a sweet grass and mild malt. The taste is sweet and candied with a lingering moderate sourness. Overall, a good sour ale.

Bottle. Pours surprisingly clear pale yellow. Smells sour with pale malt aromas. Tastes of sour lemons and lemon pepper. Clean. Very refreshing. I dig it.

egajdzis (4550) - Spring Mount, Pennsylvania, USA - MAY 30, 2011
Hazy golden color with a medium sized, white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of hay, wood, brett, bacteria, and light vanilla sweetness. Taste of infected wood, brett, bacteria, and a crisp, sour finish.

Clear light gold body, nose of citrus and green apple with the same in the taste, sourness is pleasant and not overdone.
