1FastSTi (2423), Glendale, Wisconsin, USA Aug 12, 2006 If you don’t like this, you’re on crack. Thanks to JCapriotti for this one. The beer pours to a hazy orange body with a thin white head. The aroma is huge. Sour and geueze-like. F’n a cotton. This one has a sour geueze flavor and is simply phenominal. Sour palate. Goddamn I want more of this. wetherel (1151), Encinitas, California, USA Oct 12, 2007 Updated: Oct 14, 2007Incredible super rate treat brought by deftim13. Huge thanks Tim! A 2003/4 Le Woody, bottle #73. Tasted at Churchill’s with Ivan, Tim, Aaron, and Dave. My favorite of the night. Pale super cloudy color. You can see the smallest of particles suspended in the liquid. I want to say I taste sour cherries and red dred fruit in general. Perfect level of sourness. Not overpowering. Extremely easy to drink. I like it little better than Toronado 20th (but it does have 6yr age advantage). 4.7-4.8
Interesting side note. I brought the last 1" home to drink, put it in the fridge, but didn’t get too it until 2 days later. Aroma has much faded, no carbonation, the sour seems diminished as well. The beer is very clear, except when further poured and the sediment is introduced. More like a 3.6 beer in this reduced state. Hmmm. omhper (10950), Stockholm, Sweden Oct 20, 2004 <i>Bottled, thanks cquiroga (or was it Dr. Bill!?!) </i>
Cloudy golden, small head. Barnyardy Cantillon aroma. Soft and gently malty with balanced lemony acidity. Vinous and lighlty woody. Refreshing and mindblowingly wonderful. Ringo (959), Loveland, Colorado, USA Oct 2, 2004 My favorite beer of the GABF 2004, actually tied with another PP offering, Mo 'Betta Bretta. I enjoyed several samplings of it. It reminds me a lot of Petrus Aged Pale, another great beer. So let that be a warning to those who did not like the Petrus. However, if you are a fan of sour beers like I am, then you will love this California brewed one. radiomgb (1781), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada May 5, 2007 Golden-orange in colour, lingering thin white head, some lacing. The aroma is very gueuze like, quite tart and sour, lots of barnyard qualities, nothing like I was expecting. The flavour is also quite gueuze-like, tart and sour (not quite as much as Cantillon or 3 Fonteinen), acidic citrus. Quite bitter mouthfeel turning more acidic and tart, medium body, high carbonation. Finishes highly acidic, long and very refreshing. One of the most unusual but at the same time original beers that I have had in a long time. Phenomenal.
