Aug 25, 2009 I had this beer on tap at Beachwood BBQ’s sour beer fest.
This soured version of Death and Taxes (a schwarzbier) is interesting. The souriness hits you up front but it definitely finishes w/ the roastiness of a schwarzbier. Unique & tasty.

Feb 27, 2009 Wet leather like influence dominates the nose and flavor. Some balsamic vinegar influence.

Jul 28, 2008 Sampled at the Stone Sour Fest. Nose was a little weak. Flavor was still sour. But not an excellent sour like some that we had there. Roasted malts were very interesting in combo with the sour flavors.

Jul 22, 2008 looked black to me and had but a halo of suds atop. Very roasty nose with interesting lactic sour backing. Flavors were sour, roasty and actually it all seemed to combine interesting and nice.

Jul 22, 2008 Sampled at the Second Anual Stone Sour Festival on 7/20/2008. A pretty average sour ale. A little vinegar in the finish. Overall just ok.
