after4ever (1559), Brier, Washington, USA May 10, 2008 Draft at Brouwer’s Sourfest. Opaque dark brown with honeyed toffee highlights. Big tart red wine vinegar and oak nose. Mild creamy body. Sharp tart vinegar attack. Oak and funk and vinegar mid-palate. Somehow this completely ties together into a lovelyl, harmonious, approachable, even quenching beer. Lots of dark fruits. Phenomenal. IrishBoy (1899), Bakersfield, California, USA May 7, 2008 Sinner’s Club bottle; Nose of cherries, very light tartness, a molasses note, oakiness, and a very slight butteriness; rusty color with a very slight beige head; flavor is cherries, brown sugar, molasses, and very light tartness. doubleo (465), San Diego, California, USA May 5, 2008 On-tap at the 2nd Anniversary Party. I had 3 pints. Let me tell you, way too much. Pours dark red brown with minimal to head and no lace. Smells like dark, sour cherries with some dark maltiness as well. Tastes of dark sour cherries and dark sweet malts. Sweet and sour with a good bit of alcohol flavor as well. Medium body, alcohol bite, decent carbonation. nightrider (198), encinitas, California, USA May 5, 2008 On tap from the release/ 2nd Anniversary Party. Brown murky look to it with not much in the way of a head. Smeels like cherry, cramel malt and yeast. Very easy in your mouth and pleasant. Way complex in flavor. Bourbon notes, dried fruit, sugar, molasses, with just the right amount of sweet and tart cherry. Very hard to detect alcohol. Insane beer! badlizard (1282), San Diego, California, USA May 4, 2008 Bottle from brewery. Dark brown with no head. Aroma of cherry, sugar, caramel, vanilla, and oak. Thick tangy palate. Dark fruit, chocolate, cherry, vanilla, citrus, brown sugar, and oak taste.
