EB. The benchmark for our kriek and cheese bonanza and what a beautiful sour cherry lambic it is. Plenty of berries without completely hiding its lambic backbone.

Paired with Thai holy basil chicken wings which was a delicious pairing! Still a hint “thick” and dry hopping is definitely more grassy than ripe cheese but a delicious base nonetheless and I look forward to the years treating the rest of my bottles well.

Not sure I’ve had this beer this young before. Profile is of so very very young. Good in a way but not what it’s supposed to be. Needs at least a year to find its way.

EB dusty horse blanket appreciation society trip 2023. Tasty now but not a big change since last time I had it. Needs plenty of time to develop the funk.

EB dusty horse blanket appreciation society trip 2023. Awesome deep grape character with plenty of oak, funk on some balanced acidity lambic. Very very good but I expect it to grow even better with time.

EB dusty horse blanket appreciation society trip 2023. Nicely rustic with a hint of blackberries, rose hip, soil and iron from the grapes. Solid supporting acid/funk balanced lambic. Very good stuff!

EB dusty horse blanket appreciation society trip 2023. Love the perfume like honey grape character Vin Santo usually sports and this is no exception. Needs time to mature even more but I liked this a lot already.

Blåbær Lambik (Blueberry Lambic) (2017) Ek
EB dusty horse blanket appreciation society trip 2023. Loved this vintage last time I had this but this is muted and earthy. Hopefully a dud bottle.

EB dusty horse blanket appreciation society trip 2023. Had high hopes for a bourbon gueuze with a hint of citrus but this is all peppery soapy lemon. Not for me.

EB from this weekends pairing dinner. 2013 sticker. Paired with fried whale, mint, caramel walnuts and salad. Tasty but doesn’t quite hit the balance between fruit, funk and acidity. Food was delicious though and helped the beer a lot.

EB from last Friday. Don’t remember the vintage but I suspect fairly young. Balanced, fruity and light funky. Delicious as always!

EB from last Friday. Tasted blind and paired with fried bread, anchovy, lemon and herbs. Cheesy funky and delicious with perfectly balanced acidity. Also one of the best lambic pairings I’ve ever had!

EB. On the right track but will probably benefit from more time in the bottle.

EB. Subtle but I quite love it and it will be fun to see how it develops during the next couple of years. Also a lot of fun with a Loire Chenin wine pairing side-by-side.

EB. Quite “wild” with plenty of natural wine character. Nice but won’t hurt from more time in the bottle.

EB Frilltessence 2023. Paired with “steak salad”. Very nice for such a young grape blend. Plenty of depth and complexity. Very nice pairing too where the umami of the Parmesan and pine nuts bridge everything together amazingly.

EB Frilltessence 2023. Paired with cauliflower “steak” with fermented shiitake and bacon crisp. Has lost a lot of the really weird cauliflower vegetal notes which was kinda sad for the pairing but good for the beer. Still a hint volatile but also good.

EB Frilltessence 2023. Paired with isterband and beetroots. Delicious beer and a lovely pairing. Beetroots really work with the sour cherries. On of my favourite pairings of the day.

EB Frilltessence 2023. Paired with deep fried herring. Slightly simpler than the trousseau but still tasty. This one I’d say needs another 2-3 years to find its prime.

EB Frilltessence 2023. Paired with deep fried herring. These Jura grape lambics still baffle me slightly by providing a focus on juiciness rather than the separate complex tannin structures of the grapes. However, despite that this is some tasty glouglou.

Zwanze 2022 - Poivre de Gorilles Ek
EB Frilltessence 2023. Fruity with loads of spicy pepper corns. A small glass is quite fun and good but would have problems finishing a bottle on my own. Tons of potential for food pairings though!

It’s that marvellous time of the year when you can drink some relatively fresh Fou Foune. Not the best vintage apricot character-wise but very much always a delicious treat!

Very late Friday dinner due to work. This is developing beautifully. Funkier and more complex than last time and the acidity is still mellow and balanced.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2018) Ek
Yesterday. In surprisingly good shape. Coffee has faded a lot leaving room for a soft, tasty and bourbon-forward imperial stout.

EB from this Saturday. It’s been ages since I last had a Fanø beer and it seems they’re keeping up the good work. Tasty stout with intriguing barrel character. Perhaps a hint thin and not my barrel of choice but nicely complex and a very good beer overall

EB from this Thursday. Tasted blind for the others. Tasty stuff and a bonus perk was we offered some to a couple of wine geeks who were having a tasting in the same cellar as us and they got some aglianico wine for us to try.
