Dark brown hue with no head and no lace. Flavor is sweet, sour, and refreshing. Palate is medium bodied, soft and a little acidic. Very good but could be great with more sour flavors.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 16/20 | May 16, 2009 Aroma is nice. Figs, plums, brown sugar, some caramel malt.slightly vinous, somewhat tart. Flavor is interesting, we got some butterscotch, caramel sweetness,candi sugar, not particularly sour, but has a very rough finish. It burns the throat in a peculiar. I don’t think the sweet & sour works particularly well.. Once I added the yeast sediment it got more of a citric bite, which made it a little better. hillfiiiiire (286), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 16, 2009 Pours a dark brown. Aroma is quite sour and tart and woody. Flavor is annoyingly sweet though. It’s not bad, but it’s the sour is definitely thrown off by the sweetness. Finishes dry and sour and tasty. Not as amazing a sour as I was hoping though. Still a good beer by any means though. crowderm (285), Recklinghausen, Germany
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 16, 2009 Dark brown pour. Aroma of wine, vinegar, grapes. Flavor is similar, but an odd finish brings it down a notch. Somewhat metallic at the back end, but still very tasty. Solid mouthfeel for the style. Good beer.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 12, 2009 [Bottle] generously gifted to me by ygtbsm94. Thanks Brad! Pours a clear caramel with ruby highlights and nearly flat, but a few soapy bubbles around the outside. Aroma is acetic, lots of sweet malts and fruity notes, and maybe a slight woodiness. Flavor is initially a little tart, but it fades as my palate adjusts. There is a hint of oxidation coming through as some sherry notes. There is a significant, slightly dry sweetness that gives it a very vinous character that I wasn’t expecting. A touch on the richer side, and little to no carbonation. Overall a really interesting beer and one that I would like to try again.
