jayg (997), Florida, USA Jul 15, 2008 Courtesy SoLan. Ruddy brown color with a persistent light tan head. Aroma is a meld of mild oaky sourness and slight acetic tartness. Taste has a nice, even earthy subdued tartness to it along with some general fruity notes. Not crazy sour, but nice and subtle. SoLan (1166), Orlando, Florida, USA Jun 22, 2008 Courtesy Papsoe. Amber/ruby/brown and a small, cream colored head. Lots of funky brett, cherries, oak, lightly toasted malt, and lactic and pedio tartness. Medium body, well carbonated. Very dry finish. Solid. plovmand (420), Helsinge, Denmark Jun 7, 2008 Bottle. Pours muddy reddish brown with a fizzy head. Sour aroma with cherry and cinnamon. flavour is bitter and sour with some earthy feeling. kramer17801 (1846), sunbury, Pennsylvania, USA May 7, 2008 50 cl bottle, via trade. Pours a slightly hazy reddish amber with a rather large thin fizzy head, light brown, which retained as a thin film. Zero lacing. The nose is a nice subtle mix of fruity sour cherry, dark malts, and sourness. A good bit of yeast. Reminds me in the nose of Phoenix Kriek. Nicely tart up front with a fairly muted cherry flavor, more stems and pits than fruit really. A good bit of doughy fluffy yeast. The malt is actually pretty thin, seems very highly attenuated. Some stickiness on the finish though. Mouthfeel is thinnish with a slightly puckering tartness. Some doughy stickiness on the finish. Overall, this was OK, but I’m wondering if the fruit has faded some? cellar (271), Dublin, Ireland Apr 8, 2008 Thx for another great tasting, Kim (Beljohansen). unclear brown, notes of cherries, sour, short aftertaste
