Feb 10, 2009 Delicious sweetness, very earthy, the polar opposite of what I mean with the description of sweet normally. Some sort of dried fruits shine through...fig or prune. Amazing chewiness, once again, oddly in a good way. Excellent mouth feel, with almost a crystallized sugar feel / taste to it.

Feb 8, 2009 Bottle. Pours reddish brown with a medium tan head. Aroma is aged balsamic vinegar and some dark fruits.
Flavor is soft and harmonised, mainly prune and raisins with notes of cherries and sugar candy.
It has a long pleasant aftertaste but the palate is watery.

Feb 8, 2009 A- Pours a medium-ruby red hue, off-white head is soapy and bubbly that mostly dissipates, clumps of lace on the glass
S- Tart fruits, berries, cherries, cola, touch of red wine and vinegar
T- Initial taste is red wine and vinegar, followed by wood, cherries, and berry fruits, finishes sweet and tart
M- Medium-bodied, watery texture, amped up carbonation
D- A solid embodiment of this style and perhaps one of the most popular that I’ve heard of, a very interesting ale that marries sour beer with a wine-like profile

Feb 3, 2009 Dark cola like hue with a light brown creamy head. Vinegar and banana aroma. Tropical fruit flavours with a lingering sour backbone. Not really my type of beer, just too sour.

Jan 31, 2009 Best Before 03-10-09 Pours a reddish brown with a head that dissipates fast. Aroma is sour, lactic, vinigar dominates, with some wood. Flavor is sweet up front, some then vinigar, with a wood finish and some lingering lactic notes. This one kind of grows on me. At first I thought it wood be drain pour (and I love sours) because of the too much vinigar and sweetness, but the flavors start to blend into something that is more enjoyable as you drink this brew. Mouthfeel lacks significant carbonation but has a decently rich body that compensates.
