Lactic, sweaty feet, musty. Flavor much the same, lacto comes through a bit more. Quite acidic, lemon-like sourness. Oily-slick mouthfeel. Some carbonation would take this a long way.

Batch 1 (1 of the 44!). Poured a hazy golden color with a smaller sized head. Citrus and fruity - I’m guessing the Kiwi (but I don’t eat or am around kiwis that much!). Tart fruity finish.

Not picking up a ton of kiwi, but this is a very acidic lambic. Not as glorious as as the 3 Fontein Framboos, but a good beer.

750 ml bottle to snifter (thanks Mike B!). Looks good; a semi-opaque orange with razor-thin white lacing. Smells good too; tart, funky, and peachy.Tastes like it smells with less fruit influence and average mouthfeel. Good beer, but would love to revisit this fresh!

Bottle poured hazy Orange with zero head... Flavor was extremely sour fruit. Didn’t get the kiwi until the end of the bottle when my glass was filled with tiny bits of kiwi..very nice touch!!
Overall I was slightly dissapointed only because I expected a lot based on friends description. I still prefer raspberry or peach

Bottle. Poured a cloudy orange-yellow color with a small off-white head, Aroma was some light sweet kiwi notes, a touch of tart notes. Flavor was about the same - lot of kiwi in this one. To be perfectly honest I drank this around the time I woke up the next morning after a huge tasting. This was the closest bottle to me. Held up quite well overnight!
