Jul 18, 2009 On tap at Collins. Pours cloudy orange with a thick pale yellow head. Aroma of lemons, with a dot of sour cherry. This is a seriously sour beer, like oak-aged lemon juice. I like this, but I’m not crazy about it, A bit too sour to be really enjoyable.

Jun 20, 2009 Updated: Nov 23, 2009I mean seriously. What an appropriately named beer. The bracing wood soaked tart aroma makes me smile and proud to have such a moment. Really. Sublime complexity, fresh and pure with each new sip. I want to get a growler and see if I can ever get tired of it. Sharp powerful citrus, pain in my jaw, rush of endorphins. Magical.

Jun 10, 2009 On tap at Malt & Vine. pours an attractive orange with ruby hues. Nice cream head with great lacing. Nice citrus aroma with hints of currants and cherries. Great complex sour taste that hits with a nice sweet and sour start, leading to a strong sour finish. Well balanced, though not sure how many my tastebuds could handle.

May 31, 2009 Left over from the Brouwer’s sour ale fest. Poured a dark orange with a thick off-white head. The aroma really wasn’t what I was expecting - soapy vinegar, with some tart citrus. The flavor came through in a bigger way, with peach, apple, and fuzzy apricot - it’s a very warm-flavored brew, with a wet mouthfeel and a vibrant carbonation. It doesn’t hold a candle to Le Terroir. Interesting, but underwhelming, and a bit too tart in a way that wasn’t exactly refreshing.

May 29, 2009 On tap at Brouwer’s Sour Fest. Pours mostly clear dark orange with a small off-white head. Aroma is sour cherry/apple and vinegar with a little bit of honey. Taste starts sour and becomes slightly earthy with a cookie maltiness. Very smooth with a tart, slightly malty finish.
