3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
750mL bottle split 3 ways
A: Red tinted mahogany with a thin lashing of head. Some legs.
N: ripe grapes, lactic acide, some strawberry, cherry, and oak. Wine barrel is evident.
M: Sour lactic acid and sweet tarts. There’s an ample amount of the aforementioned fruits, but this has the same base level taste of the other Cascade sours.
M: It’s on the lighter side, though it’s still heavier than I like and has an oiliness about it.
O: Typical Cascade sour. Nothing special, but it’s not off putting to drink, either.

Bottle into tulips at City Beer. Aroma of cherries, oak, and Brett. Flavors are similar with more barrel character coming through. Palate was smooth and controlled, lighter, but definitely sour. Great beer.

3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle, 75cl corked, as Sang Rouge. It pours a small, dense, light beige head over a a clear, ruby red body. The aroma has some vinegar, a good touch of berries, some almond hints, a little bit of impact from the wood, some faint funky hints, and some dried fruits. The flavor is equally complex and mellow, with vinegar hints, red berries, wood and dried fruits. Some acidity, quite dry, but it could easily be drier. It’s actually almost sweetish towards the end. Lasting finish. Yummy. 121124

750ml bottle thanks to Jedwards, appreciate it! I split this with a buddy and we were both surprised at the quality after drainpouring a bourbonic plague a couple weeks back. Nice dark red, almost brown. Has a very nice smell like funk, sour and cherries? The taste is a nice sour red almost like a flander’s red but not too sour. Nice stuff, I’d buy this again if it weren’t so costly.
