| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 25, 2008 Deep dark red and almost brown color. Roasted malt aromas with a lot of fruit in there like plum and raisin. Reminds me of a light port wine aroma. As you sip the fruit flavors explode in your mouth. Big red fruit flavors with some grape and apple as well. Slight sweetness and sour is faint and upfront on the palate but comes again as you finish your drink. fonefan (11817), VestJylland, Denmark

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Apr 19, 2008 Aroma is that of a sweet vinaigrette, some tart apples, some sweet fruit too. Pours a reddish color with a decent bubbly head and lacing. A little sweetness up front reminds me of apple cider, with a nice light tart middle, onto a vinaigrette like finish. Has an apply sweetness that lingers at all times. Good.

WONDERFUL sour flavor. Makes your mouth pucker at the start, but then smooths right out and rewards you with a lot of nice sour cherry malt flavors. Very good. DSG (1514), Tel Aviv, Israel

Very woody and earthy aroma with some malt, fruits and a bit of caramel. A really nice flavor with a great balance between malty, somewhat sugary, sweetness and a funky oak sourness. Medium-bodied. Delicious and highly drinkable. KUEric (632), Chevy Chase, Maryland, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 30, 2008 Apparently, I need to find myself more sour ales. This is is average, as are most all fo the ones I’ve had, yet I like them all. I guess a 3.7 total average, and 3.9 for me isn’t excatly an average beer.
Anywoo. What a great beer. Very much apples, first and foremost. A lot of oaken flavors. Lots of deliciousl sour notes.
Man do I like!
