Feb 7, 2009 Bottle. Pours a murky orange with a white head that quickly diminished. Strong aroma of tart cherries and notes of wood. The flavour is very sweet and the cherry flavours are candy-like, and funky brett tartness. A lot of carbonation in the bottle as well which is a let down, as it’s a pretty decent beer.

Dec 18, 2008 Bottle. Aroma of sweet and tart cherries, cherry skins, some lightly medicinal cherries, but oddly pleasant medicinal qualities. Flavor very odd as the cherry turns very bitter for me. Unexpected and not what I was hoping for. Perhaps the acidity somehow is making me think bitter, but whatever the cause, the result was not great for me. The bottle is quite elegant though, a definite keeper.

Dec 17, 2008 Sampled from a pretty 750 mL bottle. The beer gushed out as soon as I opened it and the foam made the loudest fizzing noise I have heard yet from a beer. It sounded like those pop rocks candies fizzing in the beer. Pours a deep red with quite a lot of carbonation and a quickly fading head. Aroma of sweet cherries, sweettart candies, and a slight funkiness. Flavor of cherries, wood, and sweet candies. The flavor gets a little muddled as you go and is not as powerful as the aroma suggests. Pretty decent though. I would also like a little less carbonation!

Dec 14, 2008 Bottle shared at tasting. thanks. Pours a hazy orange color with a filmy beige head. Smell is tart, funky and cherry like. Taste is fruity, dry and lightly tart, but smooth edged sourness. Almost some aged caramel and tart orange flavor to it. Medium to full body with light carbonation. Just so so.

Oct 27, 2008 Bottle, as pictured here, pours a dark purple/brown body with a small pinkish hued head. The bottle unceremoniously gushes all over my counter after sitting there for a few seconds. Aroma is tart, acidic,musty, and lambic-like. Body is medium, with an overly aggressive carbonation. Taste is tart cherries, musty wood, funky wet gravel, with tannic and acidic notes. Very dry throughout. Medicinal note distracts.

Oct 27, 2008 750, gorgeous bottle. Not sure how it was closed. Thanks, Peter! Pours a dark ruddied brown, grainy, with an opaque body. Cloudy, spotty off-white creamy head. Huge tart cherry nose. Creamy, highly fizzy medium body. Lots of sweet and tart cherry fruit and a bit of that tart bretty funk. Very smooth and approachable for as intense as the ingredients are.
