yobdoog (1426), Woodridge NY, New York, USA Apr 1, 2009 Forgot about this one, this was great, Thanks Frumpty. Smooth and tart with a nice sour acidic feel. Cherry and some wood rounds out the taste. Very good. fidel (886), Livermore, California, USA Feb 10, 2009 Pours reddish amber,smooth, tart cherry, funky, caramel, vinegar, wood, vanilla. wetherel (1565), Encinitas, California, USA Oct 21, 2008 Handbottle opened by WeeeeHeavySD. awesome. Light yellow red color. Lots of plasticy Brett B phenolics. Aroma somewhat like wax lips. Some sweetness. Some cherry tartness, but smooth and mellow overall. Wonderful aroma I keep smelling over and over again. WeeHeavySD (2941), San Diego (Hillcrest), California, USA Oct 17, 2008 20th rating, 12oz handbottle from my main man mike, mike aspidites. Shared with my gf cyn and wetherel. Pours pink with a tan head. Supremely funkalicious cherry nose, super sour with tons of big funkin punch. Great handbottle, no ill effects noticeable. Tart funky sour and overall big old fashioned yum. Very nice overall. argo0 (6861), Washington DC, USA Aug 8, 2008 (BCTC, handbottle, thanks frumptydumpty ) Hazy copper body with minimal white head. Aroma is medium sweet, sour cherry, some funk, dusky. Taste is moderately sweet, sour cherry, light raspberry, funk, alcohol. Medium body, light acidity. mj (4975), Colorado, USA Aug 6, 2008 Soft, woody cream nose – tart, lightly acidic, candied. Flavor is fruity and soft, medium tartness, but thick and full on the palate… cherries, sweetened red wine, lactic acid, and raspberries (even more so than the cherry note, which is strange)… stemmy, raw, raspberries. Quite good. AgentSteve (1334), SF Bay Area, California, USA Aug 5, 2008 Updated: Dec 6, 2008I think this is batch 2, as I hear batch one is sweeter of the two. Pours a beautiful ruby red with no head. The nose is tart and vinous along with cherry and oak. The flavor is wonerfullly complex, with the flavors in the nose taking turns standing out. The finish is nutty and oak. smooth on the palate. Thanks for the bottle Craig! TURDFERGUSON (1594), Carrboro, North Carolina, USA Aug 4, 2008 12oz handbottle, courtesy of FrumptyDumpty, Friday at BCTC. Thanks again, Ryan! Pours a bright red with a small white head. Nose of sour cherry candy. Flavor has more sour cherry, a bit of sugary sweetness, and some tart raspberry.
