Oct 13, 2008 Batch 002. Bottle shared by MI2CA. Pours clear straw yellow with some nice white head. The nose comes off as tangy sour cream with a bit of fruit. The flavor is sort of yogurt-ish. I get some white wine character as well. Light body with sprite carbonation and a bone dry finish. Pretty good. stuff. Thanks for sharing Ted.

Oct 12, 2008 375ml bottle, batch 003. Apples, lemons, oak & old leather in the aroma. The initial taste is so dry that it is shocking. Tannins, oak, carbonation, and a very low residual sugars create a very dry tasting beer. The flavor is light and fruity with white grapes, pears, tart lemons, and finish of barnyard flavors. The brett seems understated and there is a lot more than brett going on for wild bugs in this one, the sourness is too much for just brett. This is a wonderful beer, very tasty. The 375ml bottle leaves me wanting more. Huge thanks go to Footbalm and O’Deed for this beer.

Oct 9, 2008 Bottle: Aroma of tart fruits, Brett, oak, and alcohol. Poured gold/yellow/urine in color with a medium-sized, creamy, dense white head that lasted throughout. Hazy. Very sparkling. Very tart flavor. Tastes of Brett, tart fruits, oak, white grapes, chardonnay, and some minerals. Light to medium body. Dryish, mineral texture. Average to lively carbonation. Tarty, Gueze-like finish.

Oct 5, 2008 5/16/08. It pours a peachy amber color with a fluffy, white head and it leaves amazing lacing on the glass as I drink it. This smells absolutely incredible. It has a very nice subtle sourness and an extremely inviting sweetness behind it. I could smell this all day long. The taste is predominantly of sour fruits but it is not so overpowering as to cover up the nice oakiness and light malt sweetness. This is best described as subtle but amazing. At first I had the taste as a 9 but it just got even better as it warmed and had to change it to a 10. The mouthfeel is great for a sour,very dry and wine like. It is extremely drinkable and the alcohol is just non existent in the taste. I wish I had bought many more of these babies. Highly recommended.

Oct 3, 2008 This is a nice big sour ale. Complex and flavorful. On tap at Stone. Pours a deep hazy gold, with thick off-white head. Tastes like a strong gueuze. citrus lemon zest, sour apple, white grape, oak, funk, and some dry bitterness. Excellent sour, quite complex.

Sep 28, 2008 Thanks to whoever sent Rustychiles this, and double thanks to him. I’ve been trying for a long time to get some Russian River and I was not disappointed. Pours a luminescent yellow with huge frothy head. Aroma is of intense, delicious lambic stank featuring acetic acid aromas, lemon, grapes, and warheads. The taste was like a cantillon gueuze on steroids with some extra hints of taste in the background (I’m guessing the wine barrels and special RR blend). Very sour. Very Delicious. Can’t wait to go to Cali myself.
