Aroma of sour cherries, apples, and oak. Flavor was mostly the same. Started off with some sour and mellowed into sweet fruit flavors listed above.

Carbonation was out the wazoo as I popped the cork(Sprayin like i won the INDY 500)! Poured a very light hazy yellow with foamy white head. Aromas of apples, cherries, and oak. Flavors of apples, sour cherries, and some citrus. Champagne like finish. Awesome beer but it still has something to be desired. pintsize (1042), Austin, Texas, USA

(I got the very dreggy pour)
Very cloudy yellow in color with little to no head. Smell is very sweet and floral. Nice sour bite in the flavor and finish. Sweetly sour and yet dry on the finish.
The other pours from the same bottle were quite different - clear yellow, small taste and little oomph.
However, my pour was wonderful - not too over the top and very worth while. I would love to try it again! BeerZack (116), Austin, Texas, USA

Clear golden-straw color with little head and touch of lace.
Smells like a sour vinegary macro lager (thin sweet malt and whiff of metallic hops).
Thin, almost watery feeling and tasting, but still good- refreshing.
Kinda watered-down impression, yet still tart and tangy. lb4lb (2011), Austin, Texas, USA

Gigantic 3 Liter bottle shared at tasting. Huge thanks for the chance to enjoy such a fantastic beer and so much of it!
Pours a nice glowing orange color with a lasting foamy and bubly white head. Smell is slightly oak, some bret, and fresh dry citrus rind. Taste was mild, a slightly citrusy quality and very oaky with some mild sourness. Quick finish, and incredibly drinkable, I thought. Thanks again!! AmEricanbrew (1808), Doing Rogue, Louisiana, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 18/20 | Feb 19, 2008 Bottled batch #002. Hazy dark gold with a viscous white head. Strong musty cellar, oak and barnyard aroma. Flavors of vinous and lemon fruit with strong oak and barnyard musty earth. A very refreshing taste here with a mildly sour acidic finish.

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Feb 11, 2008 Bottled - Batch 001. Brew #2 of DM #3 with Justin in c-bad. A greatly appropriate brew to follow up red poppy. Really an elegant carbonated beverage shown forth from this - tight knit spotty lace trickles over the glass. Nose boasted mostly zesty citrus, thick oak, and a subtle funk - considering my expectations, the nose was rather underwhelming, unfortunately. Puckering lemon peel and banana are upheld by a complimentary coat of bretty goodness. All in moderation and companionship. Easy drinking, slides down the tongue and throat with ease. The name of the game here is balance. Sheer glamour, high-class, intelligent, graceful, and proud is Temptation. Quit tempting me!!!! wetherel (1590), Encinitas, California, USA

My favorite of the night. Wonderful sour bretty aroma. Light yellow amber color. Very drinkable. Mild sourness. Delicious.
Tried again at PP bottle shop, batch 3 I think. Again from Ryan. This beer is awesome. Same rating. I like it better than Beatification.
