Upland Cherry Lambic

Brewed by Upland Brewing Company
Style: Lambic - Fruit
Bloomington, Indiana USA

Bottle at the Where the Wild Beers are event. Pours a hazy light brown without much head. Light vinegar, vague almost cherry aroma. Light acid, some vinegar, not much else going on. Sort of empty. Finishes up with a little dryness.

Bottle shared at Where the Wild Beers Are NYC 2009: Hazy pinkish orange with a wispy off white head. Some apparent oak, solventy notes and that crunchy candy sweetness. The flavor is a bit solventy with a chemically note- mild medicinal cherry presence of Benedryl. Drinkable, but incohesive and solventy.

Bottle @ WTF OMG! Poured a hazy orange. Nose was sour cherry, mild tart fruit, some lactic acid. Flavor was empty. Seemed like there was hints of all the stuff that should have been there. Cherry, acid, vinegar, etc.

Orange with a lasting white head. Slightly funky aroma with vanilla and american oak - typical american sour aroma. Sweet and fruity flavour with a tart edge. Lots of oak flavour

Bottle at Chris-Os Pre GBBF 09 tasting ... murky dark amber ... barnyard nose ... light fruit sweet strawberies !!! nose... little sour ... little oak ... little peach

Bottle thanks to xnoxhatex at the First Annual Chicago Sour Tasting. Pours a murky grapefruit color with a thin bubbled head. Cherry grapefruit and resiny fruits from the aroma. Cherries and tropical fruits that are slightly tart. Spritzy carbonation. Decent beer.

Pinkish orange pour with a thin white head. Nose and flavor are tart cherry and oak. The flavor has a bit of butter as well. Decent finish.

Bottle at the legend of chriso’s pre GBBF09 tasting. Alround rating: Its purely bretty, oak tannins and lightly tart, cant find much fruit, very very yeasty which makes it very unclean. Doesnt really taste like a lambic i know. Its just too unclean and yeasty and nowhere like sour enough.
