Reddish brown color/ no head. Tart dark berry fruit, sour bug aromas. medium bodied. medium sour throughout with blackberry, raspberry skin, barnyard funk flavors; acidic, tart finish. good flavors but a bit too sour for me.

On tap at the brewery. Pours with a fizzy red head that fades quickly over a very murky and sediment filled purple body. Aroma of blackberry and huckleberry jam, sour, funk, tons of berries. Taste is very, very sour, some berry pulp, a touch of tannin. Dry and acidic.

A: A mildly cloudy dark purple color with what appears to be some floating pieces of blackberry in the glass. The head is fairly short-lived but pink in color. S: The blackberries are incredibly intense. They provide a sweet fruity notes and this works quite nicely with the lactic tartness. T: The flavor is a bit on the sweeter side, almost jammy in a sense. But, the acidity helps to cut through this for the most part. There is a bit of fruit skin which helps to provide some dryness. M: The body is maybe on the lighter side of medium with a fairly light carbonation. D: One of the better sours from Bootlegger’s. I hope they have this one again.

I had this on tap at Bootlegger’s Second Anniversary party. I enjoyed its nice complex flavor; IMO it was the best of the lambic on tap at the anniversary party.
