obguthr (707), Poquoson, Virginia, USA Apr 26, 2008 BB 4/14/2026 Strongly smells of ass and vinegar. Worst smell ever. Ruby red, thick pink head. Extremely sour. Once the initial shock subsides, there are cherries and cranberries at midpalate. Almost undrinkably sour with a horridly off smell. I can appreciate a good sour beer, but this just didn’t taste good.
mar (558), Dallas, Texas, USA Aug 17, 2008 bottle thanks to bhops. great red pour with a small pink head. sour cherry tartness on the nose. very sour on the palate but easy to get down. great beer hands down. kappldav123 (948), Markkleeberg, Germany Aug 14, 2008 Had the "old" version from the eighties. Unlabeled bottle. Copper coloured in the glass. Extrem sourish start, prickly and scratchy, modest fruity, prickling sourish finish, "burning" aftertaste. Very good beer! mabel (1583), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 11, 2008 [1502-20080617] 375mL bottle. Wooden barrelly sour aroma has some cherry fruit notes. Hazy, bright red body with a medium-lasting creamy light pink head and some serious floaties. Wooden sour barrel cherry flavour. Medium body is sour and tart. Very nice.
(w/ jerc) CanIHave4Beers (171), Des Moines, Iowa, USA Aug 11, 2008 Absolutley delicious, bursting with sour cherry aroma and flavor, a good funkyness and a beautiful delicate palate. This could be slightly drier, but then again it’s full of cherries. I’d love to try it after about five years in the cellar. djtimeless (40), Alabama, USA Aug 10, 2008 Pours out red with pink head. Smells of cherries. Taste is sour cherry with some funk. Very tart and dry finish. Nice spritzy fruity beer.
