Pours a clear deep pink with a small, effervescent pink head. I can smell raspberry jam from about two feet away, and undeniable sharpness that hints at the tart lactic acidity. As it warms, the brett character becomes evident as well. The flavor is absolutely amazing. Loads of juicy raspberries, crazy acidity and tartness, just enough funk, and a touch of dry oakiness. Crazy, crazy delicious, and one that I can see aging really well. bvc (292), Kenmore, Washington, USA

Aroma is very fruity with sweet dark cherries and spicy cherry skins and pits. The aroma is very spicy and earthy with a lovely soft sourness. Really incredible nose. Soft vineous character, earthy and fruity. Light and restrained funkiness. Lots of nice earthy spiciness mixed with a leathery funk. Lightly lactic on the finish with more soft fruitiness on the finish. Fantastic brew. Immy (1912), Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA
