Bottle. The pour is amber with a quickly dissipating pale head. Initially, the aroma has a tangy sourness to it with a copious amount of spices. As your senses become accustomed to the sharp bouquets, more mellow, caramelly sweet notes become apparent. The flavour is very, very interesting. It’s very creamy to the tongue. Citrus flavours such as grape, orange, and grapefruit mix very well with spices. I’m not much into heavy spices, but has a very good balance. Towards the finish, the mouth feel quickly becomes dry as bitterness starts to creep in. The citric qualities slowly fade as bready qualities become apparent. Spices, however, have a longer lasting impression. The flavours in this beer is complex and layered. It’s very delicious.

Pours copper, brownish.
Aroma is oaky, light fruity notes, there is definitely some wine traces in there.
Taste, oaky, little nutty, light caramel malts with nice notes of fruits (mainly the use of wine barrels). Pairs very well with cheese.

Oct 7, 2008 A nice surprise on tap at Redlight Redlight! It poured a nice yellow-pink color, almost a light orange. Nice thick white head. The citrus comes through more in the smell and the pinot noir comes through in the taste. It’s a nice fruity beer with a twist of wine and a good alcohol kick. Overall, pretty good.

Oct 3, 2008 Draft at Redlight Redlight. Cloudy dark orange pour with a thick white head. Malty belgian triple aroma with hints of wine and orange peel. Dry malty tart flavor with hints of citrus, hops and wine. Dry fruity aftertaste with a slightly boozy bite. Good beer.

Oct 2, 2008 Had on tap at Redlight. Had nice orange color. Very citrusy body. Malty towads the end. Also very strong alcohol taste towards the end... not bad, but not my fave...

Oct 2, 2008 750->tulip: Pours a huge, frothy, white head that exhibits fair lacing atop a murky, heavily particulate dark orange body. Aroma of green apples and sour cherries with a taste of pinot noir midway thru the flavor. The body is medium, the texture is thin, but oily, average carbonation. The flavor’s duration is long, moderately sweet and lightly acidic.
