BCTC - fresh bottle being poured by the Shelton Bros table. Pours a murky red with orange tints. Small head. Aroma is wham! in your face tart sour cherry. So damn sour and so nice. Taste is so acidic (even Cantillon-esque) and full of over soured cherry. Aftertaste is long and sour and did i mention acidic. This was the biggest surprise of the fest for me. It sure tricked me into thinking this is straight Kriek and not a fruit beer.

750 at the Seattle International Beerfest. Huge sour cherry nose. Gorgeous deep pinkish red body, thin pink head of mousse and fizz. Super oxidized nose--tart, sour, sharp, dry. Fizzy sharp strong attack. Ultra ultra funky on the nost and palate. Sticky sour mid-palate and finish. Definitely a celebration of oxidized red fruit and wild yeast funk.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 radiomgb (2078) - Peterborough, Ontario, CANADA - JUN 20, 2007
Deep cherry red in colour, light pink coloured head, average retention, very light lacing. The aroma is acidic, very strong cherries, lambic-like, vinegar notes. The flavour is quite tart and acidic, lots of cherries, some balsamic vinegar, woody. Mildly sour mouthfeel, medium body, medium/high carbonation. Finishes medium length, lots of cherry tartness, acidic. More lambic-like then I thought it would be, quite dry, wonderful balance.
