UPDATED: APR 8, 2024 Draft. Reddish beer with a purple head. Sour and light blackberry aroma. Sour and light acetic flavor with blackberry and light oak. Medium bodied. Sour and light acetic notes linger with blackberry and light oak. Nice balance.

UPDATED: SEP 5, 2023 8/31/2020 - 2016 bottle shared at our Fury for a Feast share. Thanks Jon! Pours a clearish plum color with a finger of off-white foam that dissipates. Lots of blackberry and currant aromas with oak. Still quite tart on the palate but still some nice fruit notes underneath. Lingering acidity with some faint mineral, dark berry and oak.

UPDATED: JUL 10, 2022 Draft. Pours red with a pink head. Tart and fresh berry up front, moderate acidity,, lower sweetness, mild funk, and lingering berry jammy notes. Good stuff.

UPDATED: MAR 24, 2022 From a 750 shared by Pinkzambia slightly hazy ruby red pour. Quite dry and tart nice berry fruit flavors Spritzy

UPDATED: JUN 12, 2021 Bottle from Jeff, thanks for the hookup. Pours a dark amber color with a hint of purple and a stinky off white head that dissipates instantly. Huge lactic tart in the nose and flavor faint berry and light earthy funkiness. Held up pretty well.

Bottle from 2014. Murky purplish brown pour, aroma of blackberries, tannins, funk... Flavor of seedy blackberries, light tannins, yogurt custard, funky lambic notes, oaky finish... tasty ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

UPDATED: SEP 1, 2019 Wineglass showing deep purplish red with a finger of lightly tanned quickly dissipating foam. The nose shows moderately intense notes of clean blackberries. The palate is well carbonated and light bodied. Moderately tart with clean oak background throughout and light juicy flavors of blackberry.

Batch 1 bottle, drunk I believe some time back in 2008-ish. Again, rating against an American Sour, not a Lambic.
Chilled, rested bottle erupts a few feet in to the air very forcefully. We got about 40% of the bottle remaining, with tons of sediment and carbonation. Deep violet-golden with a huge head, but much of that due to overcarbonation, I’m sure.
Very sour with both fruit and bacterial acidity proposing quite a bit of malic, lactic and acetic acid. Feels like there’s some wheat behind it, as well as light honey and biscuit. Brett adds brightness and the berries are quite lovely, being nicely integrated and providing pepper, currant-like notes and tons of acidity.
In the mouth it’s very, very, very sour. Intense amounts of lactic acid are bolstered by a good deal of acetic acid. Lots of oak tannin, but thankfully not heavily toasty. Texture is highly attenuated, but still provides a good suppleness and very light malt sweetness. Strong but tight carbonation and no alcohol or flaw. If you can get past the intense sourness, this is fine stuff.

From notes. Sample at EBF. Pours reddish purple with a pink head. Aroma is tart blackberry, lemon. Flavor is very tart... Blackberry, lemon. It’s good, but it might be taking the enamel off my teeth.

EBF 2017. Like all of Upland’s lambics, this is hit-you-across-the-head sour, but it still worked well. The smell of fruit and sour notes was fantastic, and it tasted great as well (once I got past the sour bite), with fruit, a bit of barnyard funk, and some light biscuit flavor. Still, the sourness and the blackberries steal the show here, and I liked it.
