2005 - Bottle thanks to travita. Deep ruby in color and cloudy with a small white head. Aroma is tart with cherries and funk. Taste is sweet cherries followed by a zap of tartness and a dry finish.

Bottle. Pours a reddish purple with a minimal violet head. Aroma of brett, cherries, wood, and some funk. Taste is similar, but wasn’t quite as sour as the nose. Lots of cherries, dark fruits, wine, and spice, with consistent sour present. Fairly light body with medium carbonation. Very nice beer with a lot of complexity, but lacking the strong sour taste i associate with a lambic.

1000th rating!!! 2005 vintage. The smell is cherry, oak, wood, tart, good complexity, horsey, and barnyard. The look is very red, cannot see through, no head. The taste is very dry, cherry flavor, sour, wood, and funky.

2005 Bottle thanks to Travita. Pours with a small white head that fades over a muddy purple body. Aroma has shifted away from the fruits with age. Lots of nice barnyard funk, cheesy with very light cherry notes. A bit acidic with leather as well. Kind of burns my nose a bit. Taste is funky and acidic, but no where near as sour as I was expecting (this was after drinking a 2006 La Folie thanks to Lumpy). Lively bubbles and a dry mouthfeel.
