Bottled at the brewpub.

Per's comments: Almost clear deep golden, small head. Concentrated aroma of ripe cloudberries. The marzipan and Belgian style yeast character from the base beer is almost completely replaced by cloudberries. The sweet elements of the berryquickly carries over into tartness and stone bitterness. Elegant and refreshing, citric with plenty of bitterness. Cloudberries must be the best fruit component to add to beer, thanks to it's rich, complex flavour and relative tartness. When compared to Cantillon Soleil du Minuit, the only other cloudberry beer I'm aware of, they actually are comparable, although the lambic is tarter of course, and perhaps has more depth in the finish. I'm really impressed by this beer though. It is a complex, refreshing attention grabber!
