Bottled in 2002. Made for One Pint Pub in Helsinki, Finland.
This one's made with sea buckthorn. The beer is a mix of straw colored liquids and orange solids. Doesn't smell like much aside from metal and minerals.
Ugh. Tastes like pickled straw and urinal cakes. This isn't fruit, it's a form of warfare. The tartness wounds me.
The 375ml bottle lasts an hour. The flavor profile is short, cleaning up after itself quickly, mercifully.

375ml capped and corked bottle into Cantillon stemware.
3 finger foamy white head. Minimal lace. Beer is a clear goldenrod. Nose is lemon zest, sharp funk, a mellow floral zest, a mineral prickliness. Mild. Beer opens light sweetness. Lemon drop candy. Oak and cobwebs. Prickly tartness. A bit of saltiness at the end. Zesty finish. Body is light with moderate to ample carbonation. Lively on the palate and goes down aggressive with a dry finish and aftertaste.
Fruit presence is muted. However, this works as a mostly unfruited lambic. Very solid.

2018 and 2021 vintages side by side. 2018 more funk, 2021 more fruity. Preferred 2018.

375 mL bottle. Slightly hazy golden. Smell has citrus and something like acidic mango. I've had sea buckthorn once, so I don't really know what's fruit and what's lambic here. Dried grass and a touch of yogurt. Tastes of dried grass with a little bit of barnyard funk. Yogurt and citrusy acidity. Doesn't scream fruitiness. Well carbonated. Very pleasant.

Shared a bottle at the brewery. Nice yellow color, decent head. Lambic aromas, wheat, sour, odd fruit. Strange fruity and sour flavors. I really should have eaten buckthorn before my trip to have a frame of reference.

Bottles enjoyed at Cantillon, November 2018.
From the onset, this beer showed it’s unique. Viscous pour, akin to syrup as the last remnants fled the bottle. Dark orange, pumpkin hued body with a thick white apex. Hazy body with no transparency.
Unusual and alluring aroma. Sea buckthorn? Whoa! An explosion on the palate of delicious and mysterious flavors. Oak, funk, sour/tangy stone fruit, nuts. An odd and intriguing beer. What a treat!
