Nov 19, 2008 Picked up a single 22-oz bomber at Bottleworks in Seattle, WA and sampled during Minnesota first annual Sourfest. Pours a semi-clear salmon colored brew with a fast dissolving light pink head that dissipates to a fine off-white ring. Aroma of golden grain malt, some tart cherries, a hint of gouda cheese, and citrus zest. Taste is medium bodied, plenty of carbonation with flavors of mildly tart cherries and strawberries, some cereal grain, and some wood character. Finish is slightly watery, not as funk dense as most other lambics but still has some flavor.

Oct 26, 2008 lots of berry funkiness in the smell .. pours a murky brown dark jack ruby colour .. lots of fruity tartness and some bitterness ... similar to an authentic kriek ... grade A lacing .. needs to be fuller to be great, but quite refreshing and strangely mellow ... ’’no more lies, i loved that bagel!’’ ... enjoyable sweet/tart balance , sourheads and lambic lovers might really like this .... MLS refs are a joke ..

Oct 19, 2008 Bomber. Strangely pink in hue, the fruit doesn’t really work for me in this one, it’s way too sweet and horribly unbalanced. Love the pin-up label though.

Oct 17, 2008 A still strawberry red body. Tart cherry aroma. Faint cheese in there as well. The body was a bit watery with faint strawberry flavor.

Sep 14, 2008 A delicious and different fruit beer courtesy Mr_Stitch. Aroma was very vinous and vinegary. Pour was a deep dark brown with plenty of small bubbles and a huge 3 finger tan head. Taste was nice and sour, but not mouth-puckering. Raspberry, vinegar and yeast with a some dark fruit. Carbonation was huge and biting. I’m suprised this scored so low.

Sep 14, 2008 Lightly tart cherry in the aroma and flavor. Some yeast as well. Unfortunately the cherry seems artificial. It is very dry, and this must be from the pinot barrels. Light red color. Lots of yeast.
