Sour peaches hints of pineapple, as well as dark fruits, plum, hints of alcohol, tart funkiness is strong on the nose. Pours golden blonde with no head and just feint traces of bubbles. Pungent tartness upfront with light fruits sour grapes, very wine-like, traces of acetic notes but just enough to be enjoyable with hints of a vinegar in the finish. Extremely wine-like and awesome tartness, this is awesome!!

Very light amber beet, not much head. Intensely sour start and mid and a lingering winey - dry finish. Different. Intense!

Bottle: The aroma has lots of apple, cinnamon, and light lemony tartness. It pours a transparent golden-orange with a minimal white head. The flavor with moderate apple and a hint of yeastiness. The finish has some light-moderate lemony sourness. Medium bodied with minimal carbonation.

Bottle. Wood, raisins, grapes and a touch of vinegar in this excellent aroma. Clear amber colour with almost no head. Sweet and sour and at the same time with a dry aftertaste - how can that be possible? Malt, grapes and alcohol in flavour. Low carbonation.

Bottle# 2066. Clear copper color with a fleeting head. Nice sour cherry green apple pit fruit aromas with vanilla and wood. Smooth medium body. Lots of vinegar in the flavor- i’m thinking over aged wine; tough to get past this, with sour cherry, mild vanilla, pit fruits.

(bottle - corked 375 ml - 2004 vintage) Yellow pour with no head or carbonation. Aroma is massively sour with tons of estery, appley, and vinegary notes. Flavor is like a blend of a very potent sour ale and a very dry cider. The sour takes over at the beginning but blends well at the middle with some apple notes and a very dry finish. Glad I got a chance to sample this. Thanks again David!

bottle at the Relentless Thirst Gathering in Richmond, VA, 8.29.09. Pours a lemon yellow color with a medium head. Fair head retention and lacing. Aroma is tart and vinegary with citrus and green apple. The taste is very similar with tart and mild vinegar with dry citrus and apple notes. Medium bodied.
