Nov 16, 2009 Nose has moderate sour and slight cherry smell. Pours brown with a red hue, very little lacing. First sip is sweet with cherries but brown malt and sour enter quickly, carbonation sets up the sour finish nicely. Just a great beer start to finish.

Nov 11, 2009 Beautiful red-brown in colour with fine off white head on top. Aroma is refreshing, with complex sour characteristics. Its slight woody with an outspoken wine like touch. The mouthfeeling is elegant and lively with fruity touches of sour pinot noir like wine. It has a nice bittering in the finale.
Great and complex beer !

Nov 9, 2009 330mL bottle - pours a dark reddish brown with a minimal off-white head. Aroma is cherries, dates and wood. Flavour is a mix of the same with a noticeable, but pleasant bitterness. Sweet and sour finish. Quite highly carbonated. Enjoyable.

Nov 8, 2009 What a wonderful beer, especially with ham. So easy to pair with food. Just pours a gorgeous oxblood color with an eggshell-white head and charming lace.The perfect amount of carbonation. In a tulip glass, the aromas are complex: attractive wood, dried cherries, & dates. Wonderful medium-heavy mouthfeel. The taste is at first sweet, then tart, then sweet again with every sip.

I tried this beer on October 23, 2009 at ’The Beerbistro" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer pours a dark reddish brown with a 1/2" tan head into a Rodenbach Grand Cru chalice. The aroma was wood, cherries, with some other tartness. The mouhfeel was ligh-medium bodied with heavy carbonation. The flavour was quite complex with some tart cherry up front, and sweet malt tones in the finish. An excellent beer.

Sour with plum notes. Symphonic.
