Jan 4, 2008 Updated: Jan 5, 2008375 mL bottle at Flat Rock Saloon. Poured beautiful shade of red with minimal head. Mildly fruity nose. Started extremely tart and sour that diminished as the beer warmed, however, not quite as sour as I was expecting. Poorly carbonated. Not bad, but doubt I would revisit as the style has little drinkability.

Jan 3, 2008 Purchased at Bodega Brewpub in La Crosse, Wisconsin. A little too sour for my taste. Made me cringe when I drank it. This may be perhaps due to the fact that it was my first sour beer but it was quite the sour beer for my first. I may like it and re-rate it in the future but we shall see. At this time, I would not buy again.

Jan 3, 2008 Bottle from the Bodega in Lacrosse.Very strong smell and taste. Was so carbonated it reminded me of a champagne. Wouldn’t buy again. First sour beer.

Dec 24, 2007 keg at The Rake, november 07. Slight turbid blood red color with a fine smal white head and some orange hues. Deep, chewy, fruity balsamic flavor with some very slight lemony and fruity notes. Begins sweet, and ends with a mouth puckering sourness and sparky effervescent carbonatation. Extremely refreshing and satisfying. Lemony, asertive musty nose with a sharp cherry touch. Nice. Nice, sharp, complex kriek.

Dec 17, 2007 2005 vintage from Ledgers, 750ml; nose was sour, raspberries, and light yeastiness; rose colored with a light pink head; flavor is tart, but not overpowering, with the background raspberries. Finish is fairly dry and lightly tart. Nice light lambic, the berries may have faded some, but enjoyable.

Dec 11, 2007 Poured from a 12oz, 2007 vintage bottle and served in a tulip. This beer poured a cloudy, light pink color with a thin, pinkish head that slowly faded away. The aroma of the beer was made up of acidic, sour raspberry notes, and mild, funky yeast. The flavor was sour, dry and acidic with notes of tart, semi-sweet raspberries and some earthy yeast esthers. The acidic sourness in the flavor continued to build as it lingered on the tongue, providing a dry, puckering finish. The mouthfeel was light-bodied and dry with a low amont of carbonation. An interesting beer. As the initial sourness wore off, the beer became more enjoyable with a mild sweetness left to counteract the acidity.
