| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 24, 2008 Murky brick red with a thin creamy head. Tart and funky horse blanket aroma with a mild cherry background. Sweet and sour grainy brett flavor with tangy cherry and mellow oak. Excellent full palate with a moderately dry finish. Perhaps not quite as complex as some but nearly spot on. wickedpete (629), Lexington Park, Maryland, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 24, 2008 Thanks to Richard for this one. Dark purple to brown body, little head formed, merely a mist of bubbles resting on top. The aroma is quite nice. A sweet cherry and warm sweet caramel up front, it’s backed up by a lightly tart and mildly funky touch. The flavor is less sour than I expected and overall the flavor is noticeably absent. It’s a bit bitter up front, lightly tart fruit in the back. The oak shows through. It’s pretty nice but far from outstanding. Papsoe (15107), Frederiksberg, Denmark

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 22, 2008 Impressive bright red color. The aroma is loaded with brett, but it is dry and there is no sourness, at least not yet. The flavor has dragonfruit and a little cherry. Lots of sediment. Quite dry overall, and there is not a lot of fruit flavor. This might become more sour with age.
