Jun 17, 2007 2007 bottle. This hazy orange ale poured with a modest off-white head and a malty fruit aroma. The flavor is sweet and tart, with a more bitter hoppy finish. There is a highly carbonated mouthfeel and the body is a bit thin. I suspect it would improve with a couple years of aging - still, it is a worthy drink now.

Jun 12, 2007 Pours a cloudy medium brown color with a small foamy with some big bubbles, off-white head. The aroma is tart grapes and some sweet Sirah notes. Starts off with a mild funkiness that seems to supress a lot of the tar fruity flavors that are so well hidden in the flavor. Dry, oaky finish.

Jun 9, 2007 Shared bottle of 2007 vintage at Coastal Wine Connection’s beer club. Deep golden, slightly yeasty wtih just a bare head. Interesting complex aroma ... since I was told this was aged in merlot barrels, I get the wine in the flavor, although I may have called it a woodsy thing otherwise. Group consensus was this came across with an almost Flemish sour character, with an almost salad-dressing sweet tart aspect, dry, acidic, complex and yummy. (#2964, 6/7/2007)

Jun 5, 2007 Bottle, 2007, 9.5% at KØ07. Acidic and vinous aroma. Hazy dark orange colour. Small white head. The flavour is not as acidic as suggested by the aroma, but nice with some earth. Peppery aftertaste. Actually well-balanced in my opinion.
