Draught @ The Struise Brouwers @ The Old School. Pours slightly hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma is light sourness, wood, tart fruity, white grapes, sour green apples. Flavor is sourness, wood, tart fruity, grapes, peach, apples, light vinegar. Thin body, soft carbonation, lasting sour finish. Refreshing and rather impressive for the ABV. 020814
Draft at Edmunds Oast. Cloudy golden pour with a bubbly white head. Nose is super funky, lactic acid and fruit all over the place, peaches apricots, kumquats and tangerines. Flavor is just as loaded as the nose and a insanely light body. Best summer crusher.
On tap @Schooltje febr. 14.
Was one of the first beer that day.
Almost cear dankgolden, with a white head.
Aroma (and taste): fruits, bit sour, refreshing ang good for such low alcohol percentage. Medium body.
Nice brew.
Aroma of sour apple juice, lemony citrus, some more tart fruits. Flavour is light vinegar, sour apples. Very dry. I enjoyed this one, but I would have liked it better with a little more funk in the aroma.
Sample from growler @ Beer Temple. Aroma is odd with peaches and yeasty tones - actually a Sahti feeling here. Flavour is rather tart with milky tones and some fruitiness.Tart, weird and messy - reminds me of Hair of the Dog Ruth.
Tap @ Beer Temple. Pretty hazy light orange color, virtually no head. Smell and taste are sourish but in a nice way. Clearly fruit and fruitpeel present, citrussy, apple peel. Dry finish, decent body and carbonation.
Tap @ Beer Temple - sample share with bierkoning, benzai, theJvd, andrejes & joes (Brett fest 2014). Blonde color with apinkish hie, hazy. No head. Aroma’s: sour, wood. Retronasal it’s a bit more subtle: tart, a light malty sweetness, some wood. Flavor is tart, soft, with a light sweetness. Light bodied. Dry finish.
On tap at the brewery. Very inviting aroma, sweet lemon. White wine barrels giving a perfumed sourness.
75cl bottle @ the Sixth Shrewsbury Bottle Share, June 14, courtesy of me, bought from Vanuxeem. Insanely lively, exploded all over the table and floor in the pub! Pours cloudy yellow with a nice mild sour taste. Lemon curd, honey and pear drops with artificial boiled sweet notes. Refreshing.
Sample at the sour event at World of Beer Brewery District on 5/25/14. Pours clear gold with no head. Aroma of dry roasted peanuts, tart acidity and malt. Malty flavor with dry roasted peanut accents before a sour and dry finish.

Appearance: Hazy Golden Straw Hue, Passes Some Light, Thick White Head, Decent Lacing
Taste: Sour White Grapes, Hay
Mouthfeel: Decent Carbonation, Medium Bodied, Semi Tart, Mildly Drying
On tap @Schooltje. I remember when I first tried this (I wasn’t into beers as I am now), I didn’t like it and didn’t finish the sample. So I really wanted to try it again now.
Clear golden, white head. Sour and fruity aroma and taste. Must admit that it really has taste despite the low alcohol percentage.
I’m still not a huge fan, because I’m not really into sour beers (yet), but I finished this sample. If there ever comes a time I’m into sour beers, I’ll definitely try it once again.
First tasted at ?BAP 2013, then ZBF 2013, rating from tap@ZBF 2014. Not much of a looker, but it packs a great condensed lemony punch, more natural and juicy than lemonade. If this be the dry and fruity prequel to non-Senne lambic, holding all vinegar, don’t funk & ferment it out! Genial simplicity.
@Borefts. Trübes goldenes Bier mit geringer Schaumkrone. Geruch säuerlich fruchtig. Geschmack fruchtig säuerlich, leicht getreidig, malzig.
Drucken på fat på bishop. Lätt, syrlig, torr. Mest lite svårdefinierbara smaker av omogen frukt typ äpplen, melon, vita vinbär och citrus. Snäll syra, inte så frisk, småtrevlig och bra lågalkoholhaltigt alternativ, bra matdryck. Saknar lite karaktär för att vara bra på egen hand.
On tap at Mr Dunderbaks. Copper pour with no head to speak of. Aroma is tart, wheat. Tastes are earthy, apple, berries, tart. Fairly sour. Dry finish. 7.2
Overall: Fresh, sour, light.
Note: On-tap at a De Klomp tasting. Reviewed 2014-03-12.
On tap at Pipes of Scotland. Hazy dark golden with lasting white head. Aroma is tart, fruity, hay, grass and sweet malt. Taste is sour, malty, mild berries, apple peel with some astringent notes. Nice acidity
For the love of Gord, open this bottle over the sink. My bottle vigorously expectorated half its contents all over my table. Otherwise delicious. Has something of a lemon juice tartness in a way, but also some oakiness? The perfect amount of body, this is probably the best low-alcohol beer I’ve ever had. (Kernel Brewery I’m looking somewhat disappointedly in your direction).
It may go without saying but it was also wildly overcarbonated.
På fat. Smak och doft av jäst, hö, örter, vita vinbär, äpple med toner av citron och citrus. Syrlig, lätt kropp, juicekänsla. Torr med fin beska. En aning obalanserad i smakerna.
On tap @ Avenue Pub New Orleans. Murky pinkish orange appearance with an off white head. Very acetic. Vinous, grapefruity, strawberry aroma. Moderately to highly sour. Vanilla. Berry. Light to medium body. Somewhat oxidized. Pie like. Better as it warmed up. Fine.
Sour citrus nose, unfiltered gold with minimal head and lacing, slightly spritzy carbonation, a tad thin, sour, not a rounded taste.
Bottle. Pours a hazy yellow color with a white head. Has a fruity sour tart weak citrus aroma. Fruity sour tart flavor. Has a fruity sour tart citrus finish.
10 oz draft at Bier Station in Kansas City, Missouri. The pour is a hazed yellow gold with a smaller white head. The aroma is tart sour, lactic (almost sour cream / yogurt), along with some sharp fruit. Interesting nose. The taste is sour tart lemon up front, the additional sour of the lactic and finishes with a hint of diacetyl. The taste didn’t totally come together for me. The palate is light bodied, soft active carbonation and an aftertaste of funk and tropical fruit. Does accomplish quite a bit given the low abv.
On tap. Comes a cloudy gold with a decent white head. Aroma of fruit and funk. Taste is lemon, apple, funk, and some wood. Mild and easy to drink.
Pours muddy yellow with a small, creamy, white head. Aroma has pork chops, pepper, citrus, funk, wheat. Medium carbonation, nice dry and light creamy mouthfeel. Good flavour of citrus, tartness, light lactic, some funk and a bit of wood. Nice dryness
Draught @ The Rover. Pours hazy pale golden with a big frothy white head that slowly dissipates while leaving some soapy trace on the glass. Smell is sour with lemon juice, unflavoured yoghurt, red currants, hay, dry soil, lemon zest and gooseberries. Taste is very sour and tiny metallic with crackers, lemon juice, sour milk, unripe currants, unripe gooseberries, sheet metal, hay and lemon zest. Mouthfeel is crisp, dry, tart, mouthpuckering and light bodied. finish is sour and metallic with lemon juice, sour milk, hay, sheetmetal and unripe berries. The tiny phenolic metallic element sadly ruins this solid sour a little.
Tap at Irreale. Light lemonny oat raspberry aroma.
Cloudy yellow, off-white lace.
Tart, pineapple, tropical notes vanilla.
Sparkly dry medium body.
Flavorful and session able.
On tap at BeerTemple. Light hazy gold pour with lacy white head. Sweet cakey aroma, lemon pie, meringue, vanilla, very light acetic notes, very inviting. Taste is quite tart, lemony, uncooked pie dough, light flour graininess. Palate is light, bone dry with light carbonation. Yum.
Draught. Hazy hay yellow liquid with small to medium off-white head. Aroma of apples, lemon, barnyard, perfume, fruity funk, tropical fruit, bread, lacto and wood. Taste is dry and medium to high sour with notes of lemons, apples and barnyard. Medium bodied with medium carbonation. Quite nice.
