Dec 6, 2009 A big thanks to Papsoe, Ungrstrup and Yespr for this bottle. I passed it around at the 2009 Pizza Port Strong Ale Fest and everyone enjoyed it. This beer starts out with a nice malty flavor but balances out nicely with some very good tartness

Dec 5, 2009 Bottle courtesy of bu11zeye. Cloudy orangish red appearance. Smells very nice. Has points of hops and red fruit. Some wild berry smell as well. Taste is immediately striking. Dry hops fill it out but also have some thicker qualities. Some dry fruit but tasty. Finishes very dry.
