Closest to a faro since dark candi sugar was added, though the Lambic portion was untraditional using some amber and Munich malts.

Sample from bottle at HaandBryggeriet Beer Festival, Drammen. Slightly cloudy brownish golden colour, moderate white head. Lovely complex aroma of sour fruits, horseblanket and farmhouse. Sour & sweet flavour, sour fruits, white wine vinegar, some kandij sugar.

750 mL bottle poured into a snifter.
Appearance - Deep hazy orange. No head.
Smell - Kinda funky. Orange. Dry grass. A little lemony acidity.
Taste - Much more sour than I thought. Lemon. A bit of vinegar. Woody. Some deep brown sugar. A bit of oxidation.
Mouthfeel - Medium body. Medium carbonation.
Overall - I thought this would be terrible, but it's pretty good. Very sour.
