ditmier (1021), Boise, Idaho, USA Sep 14, 2009 2008 Bottle - Thanks Toby! - Pours out dk orange with a large white head....aroma is sweet/tart, plenty of fruit and dough?...flavour is similar, light vinegar quality, cherry, apple, light malt but more sourness...this was a terrific treat, and fun to put side by side with the other NXNW sour, but it blew this one away...still, a terrific experience... douglas88 (1556), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA Sep 13, 2009 2008 bottle thanks to Toby. Pours a cloudy orange color with a large fizzy head. The aroma is sweet, but it also suggests a more acid brew. The flavor was very acidic and tart, like a Gueze almost. Funky and spicy. Nice. drewbeerme (2224), Chicago, Illinois, USA Jul 22, 2009 sampled at dld09. thanks walt! pours hazy amber with white head. nose is sour, vinegar, chemically. flavor is sour, vanilla, sour cherry, with medicinal notes. BgThang (118), Texas, USA May 22, 2009 Great pour on this, big explosive nose. I get apples, cherries, grapes on the nose and it follows through on the palate as well. If you roll this on the back of your tongue it will make it curl. Great stuff. Glad I got to try this on several occasion as well as on tap at NXNW.
Odeed (1666), Bakersfield, California, USA Feb 15, 2009 orange body with no head.sour and peppery with some funk and medicine.wish i could say more but thats about all i got.
pantani (1894), Salinas, California, USA Feb 15, 2009 Deep brown with a quickly dissapating head. Aroma is a sour metttalic, caramel, antique store, and alcohol. Taste is a light sourness, salt, light toffee, lightly acidic. IrishBoy (2685), Bakersfield, California, USA Feb 15, 2009 500 ml bottle from Walt! Nose was tart and funky. Clear copper with a very small off white head. Lightly tarty and funky with a bitter note and light peppery spiciness. beastiefan2k (1590), Lawrence (formely NYC), Kansas, USA Feb 14, 2009 Big thanks to ThickFreakness. Pours a cloudy dark amber color, low clarity. The head is small but sits around for while with a slightly sticky lacing. Aroma is oh so strong aceto, lots of it. Its all that straight up prickly vinegar. It comes off as very tart peach as well mixed with very tart cherry syrup and cherry skins. Taste is definitely less on the aceto, but still relatively strong. It is still tart and very green (meaning young) grape. Basically, the aceto part is there but there isn’t that strong (usually cocoa-like) maltiness to back it up. Still good but could be better. <BR
