Yields a clear golden color, with a small, fizzy head.

Utmost funky, tart on the nose, no baby daipers detectable though. Its dominant tartness almost prevents anything else to become recognizable, while a faint flowery grape note manages to cut through.

Drinks quite soft and truly refreshing, while its tart finish almost numbes both tongue and teeth.

Very sour on the palate from the start, while the grapes produce a distinct, ripe sweetness which is almost on par. Dry, acidic with a late sweetness on the back end, driven by a higher carbonation. Not a real taste development recognizable, while the lambic blends convincingly well with the barrel.

A bit too one dimensional on the nose and on the palate, with no subtlety complimenting to the interplay of fruits and tartness.
