Mad Yeast Stout
Stout de 6 % abv, avec malts d'orge et de blé. Mon exemplaire était à 3 ans moins 3 mois après sa date. Couleur marron aux reflets roux, et opacité assez forte. Mousse beige, crémeuse, stable à 3 mm. Arômes de baies sauvages, cerises au vin, noix pas assez mûre. 1ère bouche souple, sur un ensemble malt grillé/vin rouge mal vieilli. Arrière-bouche courte, sans personnalité. 2ème bouche avec malt torréfié, mais aussi des nuances métalliques ... Arrière-bouche toujours courte, et sans grand intérêt Longueur qui trouve un goût de vin bouchonné .. Jambes huileuses, courtes. Levure basique. Alcool très faible, il ne peut rien pour les saveurs. Finale inexistante. CONCLUSION : un stout avec fausses notes et sans personnalité .. Mad il est … (6/3/3/2/7)

Bottle @ Bertaux Frères >> Bière blonde quasi sans col au nez très flatteur; bretté fleuri barriqué et légèrement vineux. Attaque acide sur les brett pince un peu les papilles avec fraîcheur. Milieu de bouche légèrement broisé contre balance bien l'acidité à l'attaque avec un gentille rondeur charnue mais courte. En tout cas, les saveurs brettées surpassent le joli maltage avec un gout vineux doux de barrique. C'est moyennement amer et acidulé. Finale sèche boisée et surette. Moins complexe que la Cuvée de Rank

750ml bottle from Tilquin. Dry, fruity and slightly tart with some funky yeast, loads of farmyard, hints of oak, sourness, citrus, grapefruit and earthiness. Quite nicely balanced funky saison, reminds me of the Hill Farmstead saisons.

Funky Max presents Saison Vignon
Danish saison aged on Tilquin lambic barrels, 75 cl bottle with cork and muselet – the first of which was shot out of the bottle with a big bang as soon as the muselet was removed. A brief moment of very fierce gushing ensued, but it was fortunately brief enough to reduce the amount of loss… Towering high, very thickly ‘papier maché’-like lacing, off-white, bath foam-like head on a hazy pale straw blonde beer with khaki-ish tinge and fierce sparkling. Aroma of sharp lambic-like green plum and peach kernels, lots of dried citrus peel, green banana, dusty attic, straw, Brettanomyces-induced stale sweat and urine-like notes, unsugared yoghurt, tzatziki, fennel, moldy lemons, fermenting gooseberries, sourdough, sawdust. Crisp, estery onset, sweetish green banana and unripe pear drenched in a relatively mellow, green plum- and gooseberry-like tartness from the lambic barrel; spritzy carb, enlivening a slick, cereally, bread crust-like and wheaty-soapy malt body with a light and very dim rye touch. Bretty sweat and fermenting stonefruit notes clearly appear in the finish, adding lambic funkiness which is then tempered by a spicy, citrus peel-ish hop bitterness from the dry-hopping – making this beer end dry due to both bitterness and sourness, but both factors are well-balanced against each other. A fine modern farmhouse ale created by making clever use of a lambic element – but the lambic yeasts must have had a feast here, as opening the bottle is truly a dangerous endeavour. Could have been a bit maltier for me, but otherwise decently ‘funky’ and ‘dusty’ and in that sense feeling very Belgian, which I assume was the intention.

5/V/18 - sampled @ Tilquin English Beer Festival - BB: n/a (2018-616) Thanks to the Belgian ratebeer crew for sharing today's beers!

Pretty cloudy blond beer, small creamy white head, pretty stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: some fake brett, smells a bit like urinals, funky. MF: very lively carbon, medium to light body. Taste: artificial brett, like from a Wyeast package or something, lots of tannins, bit lemony, soapy bitterness, rather unpleasant. Aftertaste: some very bitter grapefruit, lavender notes, soapy, some citrus, don't really like this one.

Mad Yeast Saison Vignon
TEBF 2018. Barwa bardzo jasna, słomkowa, zmętniona. Piana jest biała, średnio wysoka o średniej trwałości. Aromat jest zdecydowanie kwaśny, wytrawny. Są owoce, głównie białe (winogrona, agrest) nuty wiejskie. Smak jest tylko delikatnie kwaśny, jest słodowy, nieco dziki, podobnie owocowy, głównie z białymi winogronami. Finisz z pestkową i trochę zestową goryczką. Nasycenie wysokie, nie przeszkadza, pełnia wysoka, piwo jest gładkie.

Belle couleur trouble, on voit bien l'utilisation du froment. Col de mousse a disparu assez vite, carbonatation tres correcte et mousse persistante, cremeuse comme on l'aime. Au nez on est sur agrumes frais, tres frais, citronné, floral, fruits exotiques, legère vanille sur arrière plan, on sent le co2 également. Dépot de levures bien présent dans le fond et en suspension En bouche l'alcool est bien dosé pour une triple, l'amertume est bien présent avec un arrière gout acide dut à l'utilisation de blé. L'ananas , le citron, les fruits de la passion. Un rien trop amrère qd meme peut etre un rien trop à mon gout pour une tripme. Cela dit, c'est frais, c'est agréable. C'est plutot une triple d'été à mon sens. Finale un peu sèche, et acidité persistante. C'est sympa mais cà reste un peu court à mon gout pour le style.

750ml bottle @ Matt's, purchased from Tilquin. Pours a cloudy golden copper colour with small white head. Nose has a mild lambic funk, yoghurt, and oak. Flavour is simple upfront of plain malts, then develops into a nice funk, lambic-esque, semi bitter finish. Quite nice, however I feel this could have more. There's a lot of potential here. Definitely worth the effort to have had to haul this back home.

750mL bottle, pours a cloudy yellowish blonde with a medium white head. Aroma reveals a nice funky yeast character, with a touch of horse blanket, and oak. Flavour reveals notes of plastic, light funky yeast, and saison yeast. Not much phenolic, plastic character, with a bitter finish. Smells good, but the taste doesn't follow through.

Hazy and straw colour, and a thin head. There's some mellow gueuze funk, a touch of sweet malt. It's got a touch of sweet malt, a touch of wood and funk. I'm not getting much dry hop, and some floral notes. A touch of tartness. It's decent...I'd actually like more funk out of this.

Bouteille 75cl @ Annual Tilquin Enthusiasts Admin tasting, merci Pierre. Version revisitée par Max de la version antérieure. Couleur dorée, col est blanc assez épais et tenace. Arôme est très plaisant, malté pils ponctué par des effluves de fruité citronné mais aussi de petites notes d'agrumes. l'effet de lambic ajoute une petite pointe de funk qui n'est pas sans enlever du charme de ce côté saison. Palais reste bien belge avec une bonne finalité, le tout est sec, relevé par le caractère du lambic et un effet de grains qui est persistant. L'effervescence est moyenne voire haute avec un léger picotement en bouche. Retrouve une légère sécheresse latente du boisé.

Superbe robe dorée, mousse crémeuse et abondante. Nez qui allie des notes acidulées, boisées, à du houblon frais, de céréales, des notes levurées et fruitées, grande complexité. Bouche à l'attaque acidulée, fraîche, fruitée, élégante, une fine bulle tendue et acidulée, pointe d'amertume en finale, il lui manque un poil de longueur pour être grandiose. Superbe saison d'un équilibre remarquable. Un délice.

Mad Yeast Mad Saison
Saison de 5,5 % abv, avec 3 malts (orge, froment, seigle), brassée chez Anders en Belgique. Mon exemplaire était à 2 mois avant sa date. Couleur doré tendre, à la clarté brillante. Bulles fines, en colonnes droites, vives. Mousse blanche, à flocons moyens, un peu plus ferme en haut, stable à 3 mm. Arômes de malt, houblon fin, zeste de citron, citronnelle, pamplemousse. 1ère bouche assez mince, à l’entame fine sur fruits blancs et fleurs. Arrière-bouche agréable, à l’amertume délicate. 2ème bouche moins précise, moins harmonieuse. Arrière-bouche plus courte. 3ème plus diluée, avec des pointes de plastic (!!). Arrière-bouche sur le zeste, un peu vague. Longueur qui perd tout lien, les bouches sont désorganisées et faibles. Jambes collantes sur toute la paroi. Levure simple, ligne basique. Alcool très superficiel, il ne s’attarde pas aux saveurs. Finale défectueuse. CONCLUSION : rien ne sert de venir du Danemark en Belgique pour ceci … L’inverse est vrai aussi d’ailleurs, comme l’inversion des saisons … (5/2/2/1/3)
