kryon (689) - SWEDEN - MAY 20, 2013
Pours clear dark amber with thick white head. Lively carbonation Aromas of bretta, sour dark cherries, woody from aging in barrells, Lovely taste! Lingering touch of bretta, sweetness from cherries and and dry sour finish. The more you sip the better it gets! Masterpiece! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Had on draft at Brewery. Pours copper with thin white lacing. Deep, tart, spice nose. Mild sweetness to the taste with a hint of aged grape. Very drinkable and enjoyable.

ryanfolty (1457) - Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA - MAY 19, 2013
May 19, 2013 - batch 9 bottle via trade. Brownish orange pour with limited head that faded quickly. Sour cherries, brett and wood in the aroma. Taste was consistent with aroma, but little bit more wood and red wine than brett.

djd07 (2317) - Houston, Texas, USA - MAY 2, 2013
Bottle thanks to Tom. Pours a orange ruby with medium frothy off white head that lasts awhile leaving spotty lacing. The aroma is cherry skin, brett, and wine. Thin mouthfeel with a strong cherry and oak flavor with very nice sour finish. Really enjoyed this one.

Pours amber, little head, lots of yeast floating. Nose of sour dark fruit, cherries and plum. Sour and plenty of tart cherries. A tad woody on the finish.

Very good sour! Nice aroma, palatable taste that’s not overly sour with hints of cherry.

Ferris (490) - Edmonton, Alberta, CANADA - APR 26, 2013
Bottle 2012 vintage - Little funk but nicely soured with the barrels. Cloudy gold with a thin head. Nice up front hit of sour and bitterness, crisp and very nice. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

tdoyledesign (55) - Michigan, USA - APR 24, 2013
Wonderful deep red pour with a thin head. Smells sour with a hint of wine in the aroma. Taste is something to behold. Very different from anything I’ve ever had. A must drink for wine lovers. Palate is a bit too sour for my taste but wins points for sheer ingenuity and for the many fantastic flavors. Great beer and worth hunting for!

Fukito (682) - Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA - APR 21, 2013
Clear reddish copper with a small white head that lasts for some time. Aroma is acetic, some green apples, and some slight red fruits touch. Flavor is sour, with some ripe apple, slight lemon and a viney wood note, very good. Medium to light mouthfeel, dry sourness but plenty of favor with a rather gentle aftertaste, refreshing.
