| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Oct 11, 2009 Big time love to the two people that sent this beer. Body is mainly reddish brown with damn little head. Aroma is and ultra sour cherry smell with light dark fruit presence. Flavor is much of the same with a woody oaky flavor that skirts the edges.Very sour and VERY good. MrBunn (1530), Western, Pennsylvania, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Oct 10, 2009 Love to Matt for sharing!!! Body is a reddish brown with little head. Aromas are straight pie cherries. Flavor is tart cherries but has a very nice creaminess to it that adds intrigue and uniqueness. Lovely. ManvsCity (95), Redmond, Washington, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Oct 4, 2009 2009 Lost Abbey. Picked up this bottle at Super Jr. Mart in San Diego during Comic Con. Almost no head. A little bit of carbonation in the mouth. No lacing. Aromas of Pino Noir and oak, wet horse blanket, stinky feet. Kind of mellow for a sour style ale, kind of light for a Belgian strong ale. I expected more bourbon aroma, but the blending and aging do produce a flavorful and unique beer experience. Flavors of hickory, red grapes, some very faint caramel, green pears, birch root, cherries, and fresh bread. Pucker inducing later mouthfeel. craftbeerdesign (752), Alpharetta, Georgia, USA
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 19/20 | Oct 3, 2009 sample from the pitcher at GABF on 9/26/09... a murky brown pour with an off white head... big sour nose with a touch of cherry... pucker up on this one... medium body with a nutty sour feel... more funk over the mouth with some sour cherries... sour apple and a touch of raisin notes as well... big sour finish. excellent stuff. mrhoppy (209), Santa Clara, California, USA
| 4.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | Oct 1, 2009 I like sours. This one is good. Aroma is great. High alcohol and wine like flavor is dominant. has a wild yeast flavor. If you like sours you must try it. The finish is incredible. I paid $33 for it. I may buy it again to keep and age for years. Drinks real nice. Quality brew. Not to sure it lived up to the hype though.
If you like this go to Grey Parrot Brewing in Washington and try the Altbier. sirpsycho (345), Murrysville, Pennsylvania, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 2/5 | 18/20 | Sep 13, 2009 Bottle. Pours a brownish red, no head or any carbonation to speak of. Aroma is sour cherries, slight horseblanket and wood. Flavor is a great mix of tart cherries, wood, and hidden in the funk is a touch of vanilla. Reminded me alot of Supplication without the carbonation. Give it just a touch of carbonation and I think this would be a great one. robinvboyer (1428), Sturgeon Falls, Ontario, Canada

amazing aroma of funk, sour cherries, and oak. Incredible flavor of sour cherries, sour funk, and that great wet hay you would get from a world class lambic. I’m super impressed with the beers ability to duplicate that amazing lambic sourness and funk. Incredible beer! in my opinion on par with a cantillon lamic.
