[’08 Bottle, thanks a lot STLWill!] Pours hazy amber-brown with a tiny beige head. Aroma is very fruit forward with a lot of cherry. The taste is lightly tart but then it blends beautifully with the cherry with only a hint of bitterness in the finish. Good mouthfeel and very smooth. A well crafted beer where the different aspects of it have been melded together perfectly.

Sep 5, 2008 Bottle: (Thanks BlackForestCO!) Pours a cloudy burgundy with a khaki head. The aroma is earthy and very acetic. Strong vinegar, very mild cocoa notes, raspberry tartness, oak and some bretty funk of leather. Silky body feel, with a very strong acetic character in the flavor- assertive and sharp with sour cherry skin and plenty of funk. Has notes of leather and lemony acidity, and soft oak. when it warms just a touch of dark malt peek through giving it just the slightest nuance of cocoa. A nice sour!

Sep 2, 2008 2008 vintage- pours a muddy deep rust colour with a vigorous initial head with excellent lacing. Nose- sweet cherries, wood, green apples and tart citrus. Taste- extremely tart and mouth puckering. Cherry taste doesn’t overpower- well blended earthy malts, horseblanket, minerals, lemon rinds. Finish is very woody and dry. Drinkability is very good with medium to high carbonation.
