Sep 9, 2009 Pours a dark brown with a fizzy head that disapears very quickly, the head almost looks like a soda pop being poured. Smells of grapes, apricot, raisins, prunes and sherry. Has a tartness, and a sweetness, tastes of deep fried potato, apple and red grapes. Very fruity and complex. Nice lacing.

Sep 8, 2009 I poured this beautiful lady into a snifter. It was dark brown with ruby red tints at the edges. The head was a decent 2cm and had some staying power. The head also coated the sides of the glass as I swirled it, nice. The aroma was a little sweet and a little funky. The taste was jaw-dropping! I actually thought "wow" as I tasted it. Funky, slightly sour, some tartness, some fruit, lots going on.It really seemed to blossom in my mouth. It tasted like a sour jolly Rancher and also a little like wine. I drank some Jolly Pumpkin beers a week or so ago and it looks like this is what they were shooting for. I really liked this beer and am starting to learn to appreciate some Belgian beers.

Sep 7, 2009 Chocolate brown color with red tinge and full light brown head. The aroma is a stong burgundy wine and apple. Begins and ends with a fruity taste. Not quite my style.

Sep 7, 2009 Bottle @ Bar Volo: Friend of mine who lived in Belgium wanted this one, and was only too happy to share with the table. Poured an almost red brown, giant head. Sour aroma of caramel and apple cider vinegar. Amazing flavour - sour, molasses, peppery and spicy. So happy I got to sample this.

Sep 6, 2009 750 ml. bottle. Shared with Gabe. Pours a huge gradually deflating off white head, of long duration after the deflation, attractive lacing, over a clear reddish brown (SRM 25) body....nose is cider and vinegar, with some sweet malts......taste initially sweet (cider like), then balsamic vinger tones, with a bit of malt, finishes sweet, with a tiny bit of tannin.....mouth feel is light, carbonation low. This is a light refreshing beer, that has many similarities to Rose wines. I think it is a little bit simple to be highly rated.
