Aug 6, 2008 07 Bottle. Pours a beautiful coppery color with a substantial off-white head. Aroma is oak, vineous, light fruits, light funk. Flavor is caramel, oak, vineous, some fruit, hint of vanilla, yeast. Palate is medium to full bodied, medium plus on the carbonation, finished dry with some light tartness! Very good, probably the best offering I’ve had from Allagash.

Aug 4, 2008 @ Tylers Apex location. Good aroma, Sour. Fruity, raspberry, cherry. Yeasty, vinegary. Hazed golden orange color, Ok head & lace. Sour, sweet flavor. Like aroma with the oak adding a vanilla quality. Medium body, creamy smooth mouthfeel, dry tart finish. Tasty, overall I didn’t enjoy that much. I don;t know if it’s the wine streak about it, but it was slow to finish.

Aug 3, 2008 750ml. january 07 vintage. cloudy burnt oragnge color. tight bead and fluffy pillow like head. aroma is of red wine strong and distinct. does not smell like beer at all. minimal lacing is present. musty wild yeast aroma is accompanied by some citrus. super funky like a brett saison with red wine notes intertwined. very dry on the finish with sour-ish overtones. odd odd odd. a very unique beer to say the least.

Aug 1, 2008 Thanks to the Ohio crew at the JP release. Poured a cloudy golden color. Great nose, funk, yeast, bit of dough. I believe I described the flavor as "rounded" while drinking it. Great soft funk that clings to the barrel, soft cherry and vanilla. I showed up and had a glass of this minutes later. Thanks crew, hope you had a safe drive home!

Jul 22, 2008 750 ml bottle split in Duvel glass. Hazy amber orange with off-white head. Tart cherry oak aroma. Mild vanilla sweetness with fruit salad, tart cherry funk, mild caramel, strong oak, and some yeastiness. Medium bosy and carbo. Extemely complex and extremely well-done. The perfect funk. Not too funky (like Jolly Pumpkin sometimes) not too mild on the funk (like Ommegeddon). Near perfect. Allagash’s best beer.

Jul 12, 2008 2007 vintage courtesy Petrucci914. Pours a hazy, deep amber color. Aroma is barnyard funk, with notes of straw, bread dough, oak, vanilla, fantastic. Flavor is balanced and refreshing. The oak really shines through, melding perfectly with the funk. Great bottle.
