Jun 26, 2007 Bottle from dickinsonbeer. Brown body with a redish hugh and a tiny off-white head. The aroma is very bretty, lots of cherry, horseblanket, caramel and light vinegar. The flavor is moderately sour, moderately sweet, with cherries, caramel, vanilla, berries and a touch of chocolate late. Medium body is lightly carbonated and soft. This is lacking many of the qualities of a great Flemish Sour, but still quite enjoyable. This did start to wear on me after 3/4 of the bottle.

Jun 25, 2007 draft at 3F brewpub: clear reddish brown. Had no idea this was retired, cool. Aroma is woody vanilla with darker cherries, caramel, vinegar, the usual... very Rodenbachish. Medium bodied with a tart sweet finish. Too sweet for the style, but my first ever sour on tap.

Jun 1, 2007 On tap, poured into a tulip. This ale pours a deep ruby color with a small quickly diminishing off-white/beige head. Leaves a fair amount of light lacing around the glass. The aromas are that of sweet/sour cherries, light wood, and notes of some vinegar. The vinegar smell is not overpowering, and somehow finds a way to blend with the other flavors to make a smooth, refreshing drink. Mouthfeel is lighter bodied with a good dose of carbonation. The ale finishes clean and dry with a slight hint of sourness left on your tounge. Nicely done.

May 31, 2007 Pours a deep hazy brown with ruby amber highlights and a thin gray- off-white head with a good lacing. Aroma is light coppery-metallic, steely, cherry pits, pediococcus- cherry pie and sour lactic-ness. Lightly sweet cherry flesh, sour and lightly tart middle with cherry pie filling, light astringency with a cherry pit- almond-like finish. Smooth and very drinkable. Still plenty of this at Somerville supersaver for $2.70 a bottle as of May 2007.

Mar 20, 2007 Dark, rich red color with full on head that tails off quick. Aroma is vinegar,sour cherries and light caramel. Taste is like cherry sweet tarts which become quickly balanced by roasted malt. Lightly carbonated. As it warms up becomes a bit sweet. A lot going on with this baby. nice ale
