I can’t belive they made this in Austin, TX. Just as good if not better than some I have had from Belgium.
Pour is deep burnt orange, white to off white head. Treacly and not very voluminous. Nose is exquisite. Bubblegum at first and then a punch of sourness. Acrid sourness. Slight lemon zing as well with a faint hint of oak and cherry as Walt described. Flavors shine as well. Cherry at first and then a dry tanin like sourness buzzes through your mouth. Lemon zest and a hint of ketchup, which was welcome. Mouthfeel is full and round, slick enough to have a body, thin enough to augment the sourness positively. Excellent beer.

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...

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.

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.
