(750ml bottle, courtesy of ericandersnavy) Pours a mahogany body with a beige head. Aroma of horse blanket, berries, cherries, and spices. Flavor of brett, herbs, cinnamon, cocoa, caramel, cherries, Belgian yeast, and stone fruit.

Capped 750 from ericandersnavy. Pours dark amber brown with a decent beige head. Aroma is lightly sour fruits de bois. HInt of cinnamon? Full bodied. Moderately sour flavor. Cinnnamon and fruits de bois. Ver nice. Finishes sour, cinnamon and fruit.

Pours a brownish/amber color with a tan head. Smells slightly vinegary, as I sort of expected. Sweet bread and toffee malts are there. Some hints of dark fruit and a bit of oak/barrel aroma. The flavor has a nice tartness with notes of vinegar and cherries. A few other dark fruit notes in there as well as the sweetness of toffee malt. Not an overly impressive beer, but in no way bad or offensive.

750 ml bottle shared by Chris- thanks again! Pours a cloudy amber-hued brown with a small off-white head. Aroma of vanilla, caramel, cherries, plums, earth, and brown sugar. Funky, tart, and sweet. Same with the flavor but without as much tartness. Medium-bodied, with low carbonation and a sweet, dry mouthfeel. Solid oud bruin.
