Pours a deep copper hue with very little head. Draai laag has a good thing going with their sours, this one is similar to quite a few of their others with its own twist. The oak is definitely present and the sourness is strong but not overwhelming. It sits at 9% abv but I could crush this all night. Excellent job Draai laag, this is one of my new favorite sour brews

Smell and taste very much like a Belgian gueze. Mild-medium tart. As with most draai laag, no detection of alcohol despite the ABV yet great flavor (flowers and summery fruits).
