Snojerk321 (1917), San Diego, California, USA Jul 6, 2009 750ml bottle. Pours a lightly hazed rusty brown color with a small beige ring that held great carbonation. Nose held vinegar and a light mustiness. Good amounts of oak, cherry and faint citrus as well. Finishes tart and quite acidic, great sour. tokyogoat (505), San Diego, California, USA Jun 30, 2009 Nose is complex, nice and oaky, with a little bit of vinegar.
Poured an orange/brown with no head.
Taste had lots of cherry, and grape, good vinegar and sourness, and finishes with nice oakiness. Acknud (770), Morganfield, Kentucky, USA Jun 21, 2009 Amber pour with a medium beige head. Aroma is sour, grassy, citrus. Taste is nice tart/sour with a cherry note. Very drinkable. I would like another bottle! kramer (2406), Sunbury, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 19, 2009 25 oz bottle. Pours a beautiful reddish amber body, clear on first pour, with a fizzy one finger beige head that faded to a thin ring. The nose is tart and woody with cherry skins, light vinegar, light alcohol, and some fruity malt. Reminds me a bit of La Folie. Tart and a bit bracingly acidic up front with a nice slightly tannic woodiness. Finishes with some sour cherry and pittiness. Nicely balanced between the tartness and the acidity, enough to get your attention but not enough to strip the enamel off your teeth. A fairly hefty alcohol note and accompanying warmth down to the belly with each sip. Some stickiness and thickness to the body but the fizzy effervescent carbonation cuts through it really well. Overall, just a nice barrel aged Sour, complex and bold. bfeldmann (1042), Wilmington, Delaware, USA Jun 10, 2009 "Amazing. Poured a orange color with ton of bubbles and massive head.

Thanks to whoever brought it. Pours a cloudy amber color with a small off-white head. The aroma was a bit sour with a vegetable note. The taste did not agree with me--I got a bit of chemical by-product mixed in with sour grapes.The mouthfeel was full and satisfying. Overall: I expect better from BFM.
