Pour moi le mélange d’épices très bien choisi, le goût acidulé complexe qui rappelle les meilleures gueuzes, la complexité des arômes et le goût d’ensemble font de cette bière une des meilleures que je connaisse.

750ml. Taste and aroma of a dusty, damp, somewhat mildewy rug that’s been sitting in the corner of the basement. That’s followed by a sour, dry finish. Interesting enough because of all the funkiness, but not richly complex. Large, fizzy, off-white head that diminishes fairly quickly. Muddy light orange/amber body. The aroma is dusty with notes of cobwebs and mustiness. Hints of fruit, apple cider, honey and grape. The flavor is lightly to moderately sweet, moderately acidic and lightly bitter. Medium body, thin texture. Fizzy carbonation. The mustiness stays through the finish along with a dry sourness.

The beer has got some peppery flavor with some strong herb like aroma and texture. Its got some slight tang in the end, its very refreshing.

The aroma is malty and funky with yeast, citrus, spice, pepper, and hops. The appearance is amber with particulates floating and an average head. The flavor is like the aroma and slightly funky. The palate is thin. Overall it’s not bad.

11.2 oz Bottle (2000 Vintage) - Pours a copper-yellowish with decent white head. Smell is like that of a Gueze; slightly sour, fruity, spicy, and a little funk. Taste is similar, but VERY subtle... maybe it has aged too long? Nonetheless, a good beer, but needs more a bolder flavor.
