Oct 6, 2009 On tap at GABF 2009. Dark, cloudy reddish-amber color with a small off-white head. Aroma is sour cherries, red berries, oak, vinegar, and funk. Flavor is very tart, bretty and lactic, with lots of cherries, dry white wine, oak, vanilla, and funk. Sourness level is high, but it’s very good. Palate is sharp and acidic with lots of tannins and medium body. Another great beer from Cambridge, which was an awesome find.

Oct 1, 2009 9/28/09 notes: 2009 GABF, Friday. I love this brewpub, shall I say. Nose is softly malty and rounded, though with distinct fruitiness and sourness. Flavor is initially sharply tart and wheaty, bold as ever. Flavor smooths out a bit emphasizing more of the fruit bill towards the finish. Majestic and distinct. I miss living near Boston!

Sep 27, 2009 GABF 2009: Pours a cloudy metallic brown with off-white suds atop. Biting sour nose of funk, fermented cherry, and red wine vinegar. Acidic as hell with a myriad of fruity flavors and some funk riding underneath. However, the finish is grainy and not clean...this is unfortunate as everything else about this beer was quite nice.

Aug 15, 2009 Tasted on tap. Dark reddish brown. No real head. Aroma is pure sour cherries and a hint of vanilla from the oak. The flavor is nicely sour, notes of leather and more pure cherries. Superb.

Jul 29, 2009 Included in sampler flight. Sitting at the brewpub with a sampler flight in front of me as I type. I guess I am too mainstream for this one. Found it to be way too sweet and off tasting to be all that enjoyable. Maybe I just wasn’t in the mood for this one today. Not a fan.
