Bottled - tasted blind. A murky chestnut colored beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of dust as well as medium notes of caramel and brettanomyces. The flavor is of brettanomyces, caramel, and dusty hops as well as lighter notes of wood and vanilla, leading to a tart finish. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

clear dark burgandy, frothy beige head, lots of drippy lace, strong tart cherry aroma with an underlying sweetness that picks up a very musty barnyard character upon warming, rich cherry flavor, lots of cherry tartness is offset by a bit of sweetness that comes out of the cherry richness, good interplay betwwen the rich and tart cherry character, gets really funky and interesting once it warms,

Bottle @ WSF 2008. Hazy brown with loads of floaties. Sweet and sour with roasted malt, caramel, berries and woody notes. Tart finish.

A Mes rate: Bottle at weekend of tarts afterparty.
Murky brown with a thin beige film. Excellent aroma with a good balance of tart sourness, sweet caramel and slight cherry fruity notes. Tart barrelly flavour, vinous, rather a lot of cherry, maybe too much, nice and funky but maybe a little too much wood. More of it in the finish with yet more cherry sweetness. A reasonable US lambic but lacking a bit of finesse.
