darkguardian (506), Florida, USA Jul 28, 2009 Thanks to Pantanap for this bottle! Pours a murky almost reddish amber. Nose is very lambic like. Light sulphur, dark cherry, funky sourness. Flavor is tons of cherry sour, and deep funk. Not as flavorful or having as much body as Consecration. A great great sour ale to be sure but not as good as Consecration or Deviation. AtlAggie (131), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Jul 25, 2009 Another great treat sampled at Stone Sour Fest 09. What a great beer. Cloudy deep orange color. Really smooth for such a sour beer (and it is sour), funk, citrus. Just a great beer. JohnnyJ (1283), Carlsbad, California, USA Jul 21, 2009 Tried this at the 09 Stone Sour Fest, Woot! Pours a slightly cloudy orange color. Cherries, sourness, vinegar, lemon zest, berries, and sweet malt. Excellent beer, tasty. sirpsycho (342), Murrysville, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 18, 2009 Bottle. Batch 003. Pours a cloudy amber, small white head, some lacing throughout. Aroma is sour, faint fruit notes, nothing stands out individually. flavor is immediately sour, tart cherries envelope your mouth and tongue, but not in a cloying manner, hints of oak and vinuous qualities show up in the background. Finish is dry and very pleasant. This one lives up to it’s hype. I have a few more put away to age further, can’t wait to see how they are with a few more years on them. JaBier (1130), Capital City, Ohio, USA Jul 11, 2009 Bottle sample at Muckfest 2009 Day 2. Cloudy amber pour with a thin off-white head. Malty aroma with some sour citrus and vinegar. Super sour flavor with lemon and grapefruit, some alcohol and a malty cherry finish. Lagunitasfan (432), San Diego, California, USA Jul 7, 2009 Batch 3 bottle. Loved this beer. Burnt orange in the glass with amber highlights. Champagne carbonation left the tiniest lace and ring. Nose is warmly tart and spicy. Black currants and cherries. Taste is remarkably complex. Long kingering afters. Nuttiness is hidden. Exceptional beer in my opinion. GMCC2181 (846), Bear, Delaware, USA Jul 2, 2009 Bottle shared by wolf at Stateline... Thanks WOLF! Light orange in color... aroma of cherries and grapes... Taste is super smooth... Definetly the easiest to drink (of the sours) Taste is lots of grapes.. Tart almost borderline sour... great beer... Thanks wolf SDquaffer (18), San Diego, California, USA Jun 29, 2009 special bottling 0f 2008; 15 months in pinot noir. Thanks to Bill Sobieski for proving his love with this bottle. Yes Bill, I will marry you.
spikes of sour, apple vinegar quickly morph into a earthy, gorgonzola cheese rind and then into sour fruit tones. A glorious palate-rape. Thin head--the lace cant stand up to what’s happening beneath...color also foggy gold...no clue there to the ride you’re about to go on. rolled this one out with fresh watermelon and gorgonzola. Yes, kids, I was gangbanged..
