Commercial Description:
This bold Belgian Style Ale is a blend of 4 sources of fermentable sugars. American Oak, sour cherries, and three seperate strains of brettanomyces. It takes over a year to make each batch because a beer like this requires patience, creativity, and most importantly, equal parts luck and skill. We know of no other beverage in the world that tastes like this.

[At GBBF 2004] A dark brown beer with a small disappearing orange head. It has a great sour aroma with notes of overripe fruit - just like a Belgian Sour Ale. The flavor has a fantastic sourness, that draws out the mouthwater, but it also contains notes of overripe berries and wood. The sourness leaves You with a dryness in the mouth. Fantastic - if You like sour ales - You’ll love this one.

Bottled. Very dark brown. Rodenbach-like acidic, vinous, woody grape aroma. Full bodied with rounded mouthfeel. Like a St Lamvinus on steroids. Unusual and incedibly flavourful, yet elegant. Definitely not your everyday beer. The flavour could perhaps be even more complex, but I find this to be one most the most interesting beers I’ve had.

(Bottle 75 cl) Beautiful, clear red beer - no head whatsoever. Completely flat. Sour, but fresh berry aroma. Extremely sour, but still fresh. Reminds me a lot of a Flemish Sour. Loads of fruit and extremely vinous. No real bitterness. Nice, but I dont believe I can drink a lot of this. 031205 and 061006

Blood red colour. Big aroma with lots of woody notes, hints of vinegar, dashes of fruit. Massive acidic flavour, deeply fruity (berries, cherries), woodiness...yeah I need more of this one.

37.5 cL bottle. Pours almost fully clear and golden amber to brown with a lacing off-white head. Smooth fruity aroma with notes of prunes and raisins. Sweet malty to light barrel wooden base flavour with a great raisin to prune flavour swept through. Light acidic touch to a dense caramel malty and fruity finish. Stunning. Had a sample from an 03 vintage too.
