MaxxDaddy (208), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA Apr 13, 2008 Bottle at Plan B. Pours a clear gold/orange with no head at all. Aroma is signature Rodenbach funk with some grainy aroma I can’t really put my finger on. I catch a bit of alcohol as well. Taste begins sour then flashes some cherry flavor. A bit light on the palate and finishes most intriguing with that same odd grainy taste I noted in the aroma. I really want to know what that is. Despite smelling the alcohol, I don’t taste much of it. Interesting stuff.
Dickinsonbeer (2512), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA Jul 22, 2008 Pours a light amber coppery, mostly still with no head. Acetic acid aroma is pretty intense, tons of apple cider vinegar- acetone, acetaldehyde, malt vinegar, and tannic with a light sweetness. Lighter sweetness in the flavor, mostly sour and acidic- vinegar, light cherry pit and cherry pie, metallic penny-like hints, almond cherry pit, cyanide character. Acetic acid in the mouthfeel is prickly and sour, with more tannins and astringency and a residual apple juice sweetness in the end. Pretty good overall, but a bit to metallic and apply for me. BoBoChamp (618), Gent, Belgium Jul 20, 2008 38cl, exclusive brew anno 2004, from De Hopduvel Gent, very complex, refreshing, clear, nearly no head, good brew, but not a topper RomanW70 (284), Providence, Rhode Island, USA Jul 14, 2008 Botte at Kulminator, Antwerp, 6/19. Pours golden orange with a small white head. Aroma of sour fruit and wheat. Flavor is very similar. Finish is nicely sour. Very well integrates the sour with the grain malts.
