Thanks to my Secret Santa Winter 2010 for sending this one my way! Dark, reddish-brown pour, dusky and not much life to the body. Soft musty nose with cherry skins, wet wood, a smidge of beaujolais. Having had the Rode Haring, it’s interesting to note this fairly vinous component of that Flanders. The flavors are decent, fulsome fruit here and a dry finish there, but the mouthfeel is kinda watery and underattenuated, giving the finished product the impression of a starter, not unlike batch 1 of that Captain L beer last year.

Pours a hazy orange/amber with a medium off white head. Aroma of tart fruits and cheeries. Flavor of mixed fruits, light sour, seems like a saison base to me.

Growler pour courtesy of Tampabrew pouring clear copper with off head. The aroma has cherry infused plastic Barbie doll, flavorless cotton candy and molding citrus. The taste is pretty modest in its forcefulness with cherries, saccharin sugar, mild plastic and cherry fruit tartness.

Growler de Tampabrew
Couleur est cuivre, quasi pas de mousse.
Arôme, fruitée; airelle et myrtille, tient des notes qui se rapproche de l’hydromel sans le sucré, le nez a des notes sympa de terre.
Goût, impression de fruits, un peu trop sucré et modéré pour un type de bière censé être aigre.

LCBS 2010. Growler pour. Brown color. Grapes, red wine, citrus peel(mandarin oranges) and some light sourness. Flavor is vinous, light woody notes, citrus, some earthy funk, light acidic tartness. Not bad at all.

Growler thanks to thirdeye11 via bu11zeye. Pours with a murky brown body with just a few bubbles that do not stay for very long. Aroma of red wine, fruit, ruby grapefruit, tangerine, and candied plums. Taste is fruity, some citrus, a bit acidic, but not extremely so. Lots of citrus fruits (kumquat, tangerine, over rippened grapefruit). Medium to light carbonation. Interestingly citrus sour. Nectarines on both the aroma and flavor as well.
