3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
(33 cl) Une tête évanescente sur un liquide bien doré. Un nez acide et légèrement doux, construit autour de parfums aigres avec une touche bien sauvage et des fruits vigoureux. Un goût vivifiant, des papilles parfumées, des notes aigres et fruitées apaisées par un sucré de malt approprié. Une bouche bien intéressante, doucement remuée par de fines bulles. Une texture bien belle, proprement huileuse. Une finale aigre, longue, peu intense et très agréable.

Bottle at Pat’s birthday tasting at chriso’s. Pours clear, pale yellow with a fine, white head. Crisp tartness to the aroma. Flavor is lightly sweet with a delicate, acidic tartness. Light bodied with fine, fizzy carbonation. Notes of lemon acidity in the finish with nice sourness. Good beer.
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Bottle from Total Wine, Orlando. Pours a crisp gold. Smells nicely of apple cider vinegar. Taste is very pleasant... refreshingly sour. Reminds me of Kombucha Tea (which I love). This probably means I must terminate my ratebeer account, right?
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
330mL bottle
Golden body, decent clarity, dense white foam.
Grainy malt on the nose. Some vinegar, bruised apple, citrus, bit of cheesy yeasty funk in the mix.
Medium-low carbonation, body seems well-attenuated, bit of acidity in there too.
Flavour is an interesting mix of fermented apple, acetic acid, citrus rind, pale malt and fainty cheesy funk. Finishes very dry, little bitterness.
Sort of like a Gueuze without the effervescence and high acidity. Not bad, probably a bit lacking in complexity to many sours. The abv is a creeper!
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Pours a rich gold with a high, large-grained, white head. The nose is intense; malic, acetic, sulfurous, and candy sugar notes. Intensely sour on the tongue, with almost no sweetness -- there is a herbal/spice/savory undertone, though it’s hard to quantify. It finishes clean and astringent. Oak notes finally show up on the close. Good, but a little one-dimensional.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Notes of fruit, plums. Nice copper color, off white head, dissipates quickly. Nice balance of sour and oak, high carbonation. Very drinkable.

33 cL bottle from ABS Drinks in Winksele poured into a Westvleteren glass at home. Clear Orange/yellow and very fizzy with a good creamy head on it. Smells sour and tart, acidic and overripe fruit. Light, a bit of banana and first with a sour and slightly tart finish. A pretty good Belgian sour ale, its got character.
