Bottle. Pale straw in colour, quickly dissipating off-white coloured head. The aroma is quite sour and acidic, lemons, rather gueuze like. The flavour was acidic, lots of white grapes, apple skins, some barnyard, quite sour. Light mouthfeel, light body, high carbonation. Long sour finish, acidic and extremely refreshing. This is a sour beer in all its glory, unbelievable stuff.

Oct 30, 2008 Had an old bottle from 1989 - 0,75l - made for friends of the brewery. The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also, but there’s no foam. Starts very sourish, prickly. The finish is a bit moldy and metallically, but I think that’s because of it’s age. Really good one!

Jun 26, 2008 Updated: Jun 27, 2008This was the worst beer I’d ever tried (at least up until then).<br />
Appearance: Pale yellow-brown, no head, fizzy.
Aroma: Not wheaty at all, fruity. As if it is not ready.
Taste: Absolutely revolting. Acidic. Sour, though hint of fruit.
Info: 330ml bottle, 19/11-2005, 55/300, 35/500

Jun 10, 2008 <i>Bottled at Berliner Republik, served with a straw</i>. Hazy straw yellow, low white head. Cidery aroma with green apples, some grapefruit, some tropical fruits and coconut. Light in body, soft carbonation. Dry and acidic. Very refreshing on this warm and sunny day in Berlin.

May 22, 2008 Bottle (best before 15/09/07): Slightly hazy, rather quickly collapsing white head, lazy carbonation, pale golden; distinctive sourish fruity nose (green apples); sharp sourish flavour with a very faint sweetness, not too light bodied; apples and lemons in the dry, sour, tart and slightly sweetish finish. Good suff, better than many "commercial" examples of the Gueuze-family. What a pity.........
