DaSilky1 (1627), San Diego, California, USA Aug 19, 2008 Hazy dark amber color, super big, frothy, lacy, and icy looking head. The nose was fucking brilliant! Huge Brett Funk...Thick super cheesy but somewhat sweet but at the same time very barnyard with maybe a nice river of molasses flavored playdough running through the middle. Somewhat fizzy. The flavors here were fucking warped. Not sure what barbera wine is, but holy fucking shit this stuff was cheesy! The palate was thick and chewy with wierdo wild yeast, funk, cheese, mildew, sweetness, wet cardboard (in a good way), medicine, leather, and god knows what. I was not expecting this whatsoever...it’s quite grand. Its kind of like a gueuze on acid...no, make that peyote...rotten, moldy peyote.. Pailhead (2323), Allen Park, Michigan, USA Oct 3, 2008 Bottle: The aroma consists of sour cherries, oak, and slight vinous notes. It pours a hazy amber with lots of sediment and a large creamy off-white head. The flavor starts with some light sour cherry, yeast, and faint caramel. There’s some moderate oak in the finish. Light-medium bodied with a soft and creamy mouthfeel. after4ever (1753), Brier, Washington, USA Mar 24, 2008 500. Thanks, Terry! Beautiful, bright rubied dark amber, cloudy. Thin creamy fizz. Green apple and mineral and white vinegar mid-palate, that somehow ties together and works beautifully. Long mineral finish. Lots of wood, and some lambic-y funk. This is a great little beer. fiulijn (5880), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy Jun 20, 2008 Bottle, courtesy of Yespr Cloudy amber color; creamy head. It’s a good Belgian Ale, with a balance between sweetness, malt, fruitness. Indeed the aroma is a bit vinous, and with very light vanilla too. Good mouthfeel, with a light astringency from the cask ageing. Very good. AmEricanbrew (1009), Swamp Shreveport, Left Coast, Louisiana, USA Sep 17, 2008 Clear copper color with a viscous tan head. Nice aroma is funky tart cherry with moldy wet wood and sweet caramel. Medium body. Flavor starts sweet with mild caramel, then some tart cherry and wet wood. A lingering finish is mildly sour. Great aroma, good flavor, nice beer.
