Dec 7, 2008 Pours a hazy garnet with a BIG rocky, tan foam. This was a gusher and continued to creep its way out of the bottle well after the first glass was poured. The aroma is sour with hints of raspberry, rum, fruitcake. The flavor is sour, wood tannin, grape, brown sugar

Dec 5, 2008 Bottle: came bursting out of the bottle when opened, pours a hazy brownish-orange with a frothy white head, fruity, spiced, sour aroma, taste is mildly sour with some of the oak coming through after the initial sour burst, lots of carbonation with a thin mouthfeel.

Dec 3, 2008 Sparkling garnet with a minimal 1/8 inch ivory head. Starts with a sour that locks the jaw, then develops into a beer with complexity. Caramel, toffee, even perhaps a bit of oak. Nose is slightly yeasty, biscuity, and spicy. Good mouthfeel. Yum.

Nov 28, 2008 Bright, cloudy, amber and 1 thin finger of cream-like head with fast popping bubbles as the head collapses into a very frothy looking head. Very inviting. An awesome sourness with some nice yeasty wildness formally found in lambics and sours made with brett. For someone that likes sours, this beers smells great! The sourness is very bold up front with a decent amount of carbonation but not overwhelming by any means. I think that this beer could be more. The aroma suggests that it should be. Almost a sour, quiet wild and yet still tame enough and pedestrian enough that someone not into crazy wild sours would still appreciate. My favorite from this brewery so far. Now I can say that the alcohol isn’t present in the aroma, or taste but you can feel it. It warms the mouth, throat and yes, the soul. This is one warming beer I think would woop your ass if you stopped payin attention to how much you’ve had. Drink 1....with a friend if you like...

Nov 20, 2008 Pours amber.
Aroma of nice light sourness.

Good carbonation, the sour taste remains light, making the beer very enjoyable to drink.
Nice barrel oak taste that make this part of Jolly Pumpkin’s unique line of sour beers.

Nov 20, 2008 12 oz. bottle. Quite mellow, with very soft mustard and spice notes in the nose. Flavor is a rather full and sour-grapes fruit-filled sensation that ends roundly. Not noticeably spicy or yeasty.

Nov 2, 2008 Blend 3, 2008 - Poured into tulip glasses. Dark amber with a mostly maintained foamy tan head. Notes of red wine, fruit and oak blend well. Light to moderate acidity. Medium to full bodied with a light sourness and lush carbonation. Very enoyable beer, I think I’ll be buying more.

Nov 2, 2008 I must have got an evil bottle, because the beer inside it wants the hell out! Really, I’ve poured an entire glass and it’s still crawling out through the top! Nose is sour and funky, but not too much. I’ts a dry drink with big marbely chunks of head floating atop. Fruity and mildly sour. Sour fruits in the chase and simply delicious. It’s really damn good.
