3.9 Cherry, red wine vinegar. Apple

3.4 Reddish brown colour with no head. Aroma and flavour have astringent fruity vinegar. Sweet and sour cherry. Imitation of a Rodenbach. Almost identical but less woody and dry.

3.8 (Draught at Beer Tempel, Amsterdam, 26 Aug 2019) Dark brownish red colour with beige head. Fruity nose with cherries, caramel, oak wood and hints of sardines (no idea why). Fruity, tart taste with notes of cherries, oak wood, balsamic vinegar, caramel and a fresh acidity in the finish. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Fresh ad tasty Flemish brown ale with a good cherry touch. Very nice.

4.4 Tap @ Brody's American Taproom The Hague. Poured hazy amber with one finger off white head. Aroma: funk, Brett, oak, cherries, apples, caramel, citrus, vanilla, dried red fruit. Taste: funk, Brett, sour cherries, green apples, vanilla, lemon, vinegar, caramel, barnyard, vinous, oak, plums. Medium body with sour bittersweet finish. Reminded me alot of Rodenbach Charactere Rouge. Very good, a delicatesse...

3.6 En copa, cerveza rojiza con una fina capa de espuma blanco hueso. Aroma dulce a cereza y vino tinto, junto con vinagre, frutas dulces maduras, una nota ágria y algo de caramelo. En boca, textura ligera y acuosa, de carbonatación media, bastante ácida y baja amargor. Sabor marcado a cereza ácida y vino tinto, junto con ácido cítrico, vinagre, frutas y cereales, caramelo, y cierto toque lácteo ágrio. Una Sour de lo más extraña, con ese sabor a cereza ácida y vino que no sabes muy bien como encajar. Aún así, resulta bastante adictiva.

1.5 Bière cidre à la cerise Goût presque de liqueur Pas aimé

4.0 Tap. Amber with a red haze. Fresh oak, vanilla and matured cherries in the aroma. Vinous. Vanilla, cherries and vinous notes in the sour flavor.

0.5 Ácida, avinagrada

4.0 Birra davvero fantastica. Acidità spiccata allappa alla grande, le ciliegie si sentono solo leggermente e questo è un bene. Leggero legno che mi ha ricordato alcuni vini naturali

2.1 Botella 355ml Color marron-rojizo,espuma escasa sin resistencia.Aroma manzana fermentada,vinagre,cerezas,frutal.Sabor muy acido,manzana fermentada,cerezas,frutal,es que no es mi estilo de cerveza.

3.4 355 ml bottle @ home, served in a teku glass, due date: 2023. Aroma: not very intense aromas of acidic grapes, tart fermenting wine, very subtle hints of brett. Appearance: amber to dark amber color with copperish overtones and slightly off-white head made of tiny bubbles. Low head thickness with low retention and no Brussels' lacing. Low haziness. Taste: low sweetness, low bitterness, medium sourness. Flavors of tart grapes, acidic wine, fermenting wine, vinegar. Very light hints of Brettanomyces. These flavors hide any other flavor. Balance is toward the sourness. Palate: low to medium body, watery to oily /silky texture, low to medium carbonation, long dry and sour finish with low bitterness and medium sourness and the same previously mentioned flavors. Alcohol is only noticeable because of some light throat and mouth warming but very well hidden by the acidity and the carbonation. No noticeable astringency. Overall: quite good looking, aromas and flavors of tart grapes, acidic wine, fermenting wine. Very refreshing and thirst quenching. The acidic flavors hide any other ones, I couldn't find any malt or hop flavors or aromas. I couldn't find the cherries or the wood either. Not bad but I'm not a great fan of the style.

3.8 Super tart, super puckering, but a good caramel/amber malt backing to come close to balancing it perfectly. online saveaur beer

4.0 Lambic ambrata con schiuma beige fine e poco persistente. Sentori aciduli con retrogusto di ciliegie

3.9 Bottle in Hop Lords in Worcester. Pours ruby with no head. Rich flavour of cherries, wood and balsamic vinegar.

4.0 Spettacolare! Acida Leggero profumo di stalla

4.2 D'abord on trouve le boisé très proche d'un vin rouge, puis un poil d'acidité et aussi de la cerise. Très proche d'une rouge des flandres (et une bonne).

3.8 Bottle, pours a reddish brown color with a large and frothy head. Nice lace. Nose is wet wood, tart cherries, acidic lemons, and other rich oak. Flavor is a lot of the same with some additional cherry vinegar and yeast funk. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Enjoyable

4.0 Bottle in the hotel. Pours deep golden orange, nose is funk, vinegar, cherry, almond, taste is similar, oak, some gooseberry from the wine barrels.

4.2 Pours a dark red, almost brown. Hints of cherry on the palate. Like most Goose sours, this is really nice to enjoy.

3.8 Cc

3.3 Taste: cherry, tart, spiced, sour, wine, woody, funky notes. Same with the nose. Dark reddish/brown hue, semi clear, tan with a delicate head and lace. medium to full body

4.2 (dark rose, > vineux-cherry, > vin-red-vinaigrée~roden, cerise acide-sucrée, très bien foutue, s’y ‘croirait’ !)

0.5 Finie dans l'évier.

1.0 Rood bier zonder schuim en met zeer veel koolzuur. Het bier smaakt zuur en muffig met daardoor het aroma van kersen. Op het einde komt de smaak van de gebruikte houten vaten sterk naar voren. (Beery Christmas 2018)

0.8 Flesje gedeeld door Tomhendriksen. Amberkleurig bier zonder schuim. Geur en smaak is zuur alsof ik azijn drink. Geen bier voor mij.

1.0 Fles gedeelt met Inoven. Het is een donker rood tot bruin bier. Het heeft geen schuim. Het heeft een zure geur. De smaak is zuur en wat krieken achtig.

3.8 35,5cl flesje via Hopt Alcoholpercentage van 6,7% Uitgeschonken in Brand Porter glas Uiterlijk: donkerrood met kleine witte schuimkraag Aroma en smaak: neus is fruitig, zuur van kersen, gistig, smaak is ook zo, zuurtje is flink, donker fruit, eik, ook wat zoet van kers buiten het zure Conclusie: niet verkeerd voor een zuur biertje

3.5 From a bottle at GABS on 19 May 2018. Sour cherry flavour leaves you with no doubt as to what type of beer this is.

3.0 Birra acida dal retrogusto di ciliegie. Molto particolare

4.1 Flaska från Berry Christmas 2018. Klar, vinröd kulör med smutsvit skumkrona. Doft av körsbär, rödvinsvinäger, träfat och funk. Syrlig, frisk, spritsig och bärig munkänsla. Smak av körsbär, röda vinbär, rödvinsvinäger, funk, vildjäst, rödvin och lite jordkällare. Mustig kropp.
