Jun 29, 2008 [bottle, batch 3, shared with DarkMagus] Pours a hazy yellow with a very dense white head. Loads of visible carbonation. Aroma is quite tart and funky. Flavors are full of microbiology.. tart and funky brett character provides some interesting pineapple and fruit esters. Really complex and bone-dry finish. Thirst quenching and delicious. An outstanding beer, overall.

Jun 28, 2008 Opened side by side with supplication. Orange haze with a light thin head. Delicate beer. Oak barrels very present on the nose, white wine, and a touch of funk. Palate is slighly buttery, full, tart finish. Balanced sour.. Wine, tart carbonation, funk. Sour/ tartness not overpowering in the least. Great sour ale.

Jun 28, 2008 big aroma of ceder and oak with a musty basement or wine barrel room flair. hazy apercot color with high lacing. interesting and developed flavor with blue mold and ripe cheese, lactic and long. subtle and complex the supplication burned my pallet a bit unfortunately. the beer is dry and has a clean finish than lingers just a bit in the back.

Pours a hazy straw-yellow with a nice and incredibly persistent white head. Beautiful. Nice sour lactic nose, some oak barrel. The flavor is really smooth and really nice. Lots of chardonnay-oak, slightly buttery, tart but not aggressively so, pleasingly dry, beautifully balanced, more wood than funk. This comes together like a gem and makes for a very easy-going but uncompromising dry sour.
Addendum: after enjoying a second bottle, I may be slightly under-rating this one a 4.1. Could well be 4.2.
Addendum: Just drank my last bottle. Sad.

Jun 21, 2008 Poured Batch 003 into a tulip glass after a huge fizzy head erupted from the bottle. Smells of sour fruit, funk and some wine. Taste is champagne like and estremely sharp. Great flavor, great mouthfeel. My fave RR, yet.

Jun 19, 2008 sampled batch 3 with the phoenix crew... pours a cloudy pale orange with a vigorous white head. smells tart from across the room!... champagne, champagne vinegar, woody dryness, yeast, sour cream, lemon zest, mineral/flint/stone, blood and rust. medium body with an airy mouth feel from the soft carbonation. the flavor is the same and doesn’t disappoint. the oak and funk really shine. this walks a fine line between too much malt and not enough... really well done...
