Aug 6, 2009 Updated: Aug 7, 2009bottle. Wow this is the second time I drink this and the aroma is so vinegar, almost fresh ketchup, hard nose to get over. Flavor of fresh cherries with silky finish. It’s beautiful once it’s in your mouth.

Pours a deep garnet red with a one finger beige head. The initial aroma is of red wine followed by expected Brett funk, and hints of straw, cork, and leather. Wow, huge plum flavor right off, followed by cherry candy and chocolate covered raisins. Hints of oak. I would prefer a more assertive Brett character to balance the sweetness a bit. Zero hop presence on this one. Medium body. Could be a good beer, but needs balance; as it is it’s cloyingly sweet. Perhaps this could be put down to an error in the blending process. Not a swigging or session beer by any stretch. This is one to be shared, and sipped, with friends.

Jul 24, 2009 Bottle: Nice dry ale, lots of fruity flavors quite sweet. Aroma is sweet, bubble gum like. Sweetness is overpowering, would expect a bit more tartness, acidity, for a sour ale.

Jul 21, 2009 Pours a black cherry red with a prominent head. Aroma has some red wine qualities and lots of different fruits. Tough to decipher, to be honest. Quite the surprise when it hits the mouth: an initial bitterness suddenly bursts into sweetness. Very intriguing and something I could probably enjoy in limited quantities.

Jul 21, 2009 Updated: Nov 24, 2009Dark reddish pour, fizzy offwhite head. Aroma is caramel maltiness, some vinegar, sherry, rather vinous. a bit of funk as well. Flavor is sweet and sour, some sweet sherry notes, some oaky mellowness, a shock of tartness through the center.
