Oct 26, 2008 Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a thick, off-white head with a deep, murky brown body. Good retention from the head and good lacing. Aroma is really fruity and flowery with a little bit of funk, pineapple, honey sweetness as well as some spicey notes. Taste is sour with a spicey, wine like note, some fruit, and must. Lively carbonation, tart and puckering mouthfeel.

Oct 4, 2008 Deep amber-brown beer with a thin white head. Aroma is very nice... lots of soft tartness over a fairly rich vineous backbone. Cherry/berry fruitiness along with some light oaky character and a soft acetic character. Quite a creamy palate with a bit of wheaty flavour. Lingering raspberry/cherry fruitiness that works very well with the soft funky acidity. Oaky and quite interesting.

Oct 3, 2008 Thanks a ton to puzzl for sharing this - very hazy amber beer - an explosion of oak and cabernet (grape skin tannins, toasted oak) in the aroma, with light funkiness - a bit of acetone up front, but that quickly fades - tart cherries, fruit skins, and a bit of leathery character - the cab comes through quite a bit, and the funkiness adds a unique counterpoint to this - very dry, oaky finish - quite an interesting beer.

Oct 2, 2008 Bottle from Kramer. Beautiful aroma, rich and fruity, some tartness from the wine barrels, grape skins and buttery oak. Very complex. Flavor is very oaky, rich, light tart, with a wonderful, easy drinking body. Reminds me of early Jolly Pumpkin stuff, before the beers were too tart, and more tart forward. Awesome stuff.
