Couleur dorée pale, aucune mousse. Faible caractère de pomme verte, de citron et de brettanomyces rapidement dominé par le sucre. Faible acidité en bouche, finale mi-sèche, faible carbonatation. Tout de même rafraîchissant. En fût, le laboureur, Bruxelles, Décembre 2005.

Draught. Clear amber, no head. Very distinctive cidery, vinegary, vinous aroma. A little off-putting for a beer on initial contact. Medium body with very little carbonation. The flavour has a wonderful balance of sweetness and the cidery, almost vinegary, tartness. It is also fruity (oranges, grapefruit, cherries) but there is no bitterness. It’s a very unusual beer and perhaps an acquired taste. It’s compex and interesting, but very quaffable.

A simple, quaffable faro that barely avoids excessive sweetness. Half the fun is visiting this back-alley pub to pour the stuff from your clay pitcher into a tumbler. Maybe it’s not the stuff of connoisseurs, but in a place like this you can understand how it was once a local working man’s drink. Pours a reddish-amber with zero head. Sweet, coppery nose. Medium sweetness and light sourness, with fruity notes that resemble cider or apple tea. A bit wet, with low carbonation. Refreshing and fun to drink.

Clay pitcher at La Becasse. Amber of colo - no head. An aroma with hints of sweet, sour notes and wet dog. A flavor with sweet notes, sour notes - not to much, bitter and dry finish. Taste like æblejuice made of sour apples.
