This reminded me of drinking some of the finer aged Burgundian wines. This pours a brilliant ruby red, with brown highlights, and a head that if you blink you will miss it. Sour fruits notes, but not overpowering. Lots of wood and vinous vinegar, but the finer balsamic type. Intense on the mouthfeel, amazing complexity. This is definitely a sipper, a thinking beer, that you can just enjoy over the course of an evening, much like a bottle of wine.

Aug 18, 2008 A mild sour ale with subtle flavors of vinegar, sweet fruit, and oak. Thin and watery. There are more flavorful offerings out there, and this one did not live up to its price tag (15$).

Aug 16, 2008 Brown bodied with a tan head. Sour aroma, lemons come through, and a note of caramel. The flavor is sour, tart, and lightly bitter toward the end.

Aug 14, 2008 2006 bottle. Pours garnet with a very small white head. Vinegary, somewhat grapey aroma with oak undertones. Rich on the palate, with brett, almond, some vinous berry flavors, and oak. Too much oak on the finish kills the thing. Before it all falls apart, though, it’s great.
