Pours a dark purple color with a sweet fruity nose. Flavors are like sour candy. Very drinkable, with the sweetness lending a hand to the sour to make it very tasty. Not really much funk in there. Cascade’s sours really are different from many other sours because of their sweetness. It seems to make them very approachable, and I really enjoy it. The ones I have tried have been sour beers that I could drink a good bit of. Another thumbs up from me.

Courtesy GodOfThunder. Pours a dark black cherry color with crimson highlights at the edge. A foamy tan head settles very slowly to a thin, lasting blanket. Soapy lacing mostly breaks apart and rejoins the body. The nose displays tart black and blue berries up front, with a virgin American oak softness and notes of vanilla. Flavors follow suit, tangy blackberry staying pretty true to the name, with a dry, earthy oakiness that takes the tartness down a notch. Drier than some of the other Cascade sours, this one is sports a finer carbonation and feels less soda-like overall. Straightforward, tasty stuff.

Bottle… GSRARO Throwdown… Murky prune-colored ale with a mid-sized, creamy, off-white head. Excellent retention. Subdued aroma consists of oak earthiness, acidity and blackberry sweetness. Light-bodied, watery and effervescent. Fruity, sour, funky flavor. Tart, tangy, dry finish. Kudos to GodOfThunder for providing this one!

Bottle: Thanks FlacoAlto! Pours a nice muddy maroon with a dense pinkish tan head. Aroma is dominated by sweet blackberry and currant. Perhaps a touch of oak is there with a vigorous swirl and a light diacetyl hint. Very light and vacant feel- like seltzer on the palate. Nondescript flavor. Neither acidic nor acetic. Light tartness with currant jam, and a tad tannic. Musty old oak, perhaps when it warms. Not much comes through; as it lacks texture and body, big time. Seltzer like.
