Apr 6, 2009 Pours clear brown with a large offwhite head mostly lasting with some lacing. Dipped the nose and summer was all over, lots of flower and cherries packed in a malty caramell sour mess. A sip on it revealed flavor of coffee and sweet berries. Medium body with rather high carbonation. An excellent brew.

Apr 2, 2009 Brewed in Belgium.......Decided to have a side by side comparison between two highly rated sours last night with fellow Devonshire AFI96. Pours a light garnet color with a solid foamy off white head with some nice carbonation. Aroma of cherries, grapes, mild vinegar and candy. Taste is of tart cherries, malts, green grapes and a hint of candy. The mouthfeel is very spritzy at first then becomes dry with a nice sour flavor at the finish. This was a wonderful brew and would love to try again.

Mar 30, 2009 11.2oz bottle. I was quite drunk when having this one. Didn’t get a look at the head, only a slight remembrance of the aroma. The taste did make an impact however. Very sour, and sweet at the same time. Cherry is the main thing I pick up here. I believe the vintage of the bottle is 2006.

Mar 28, 2009 Really enjoyed this one. A bit out of the ordinary with its sour fruit, almost vinegar aroma and flavor balancing nice sweet malt and dates. Actually, I think if you stuffed a prune with sour green grapes and washed it down with sour cherry juice it might give the same effect. Makes me want to try others of this variety.

Flavour: Wow, a delicious sour, sweet, sour (again), floral, cherry flavour with candy, raisin and figs. Just a delicious sour finish, fantastic!

Mar 26, 2009 Bottle.
Ruby in colour with a small tan head.
Aroma is balsamic vinegar, port, prune and a little alcohol. The vinegar is unfortunately to dominating.
It has a medium bodied flavour of raisin, candy sugar and notes of vinegar.
The aftertaste is a bit of acidic prune.

Mar 10, 2009 How have I not rated this one yet! Notes from tap at Capones. Poured a deeper amberish/brown color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of woodiness, vinegar, and sour cherry. Tastes of vinegar and sour dark fruits. If you don’t like vinegar, skip this one for sure.
