Beautiful sour cherry nose, slightly over tart, a bit chalky and highly acidic though. Good, but lacking greatness, slightly one-dimensional.

Sep 5, 2008 Bottle: Pours a muddy, reddish brown with a small short-lived head. Aroma is rich with fruity and tart notes. Lots of cherries. The taste was a mouth puckerin’ rush of fruity sweet and tart. Tons of cherries, sours, tart, and some undescribable sweet/tart/sour complexities. A wonderful predecessor to dinner and damn it if I won’t have to get another one soon!

Aug 29, 2008 Bottle, thanks to dchmela. My pour was not as red as the picture... more of an orange red, and a little hazy. Minimal head upon pour. Very gueuzy acetic nose with sour lemony citrus, some funk and dust, and some surprisingly mild cherries on the nose. Great musty sour flavor. Really nice.

Aug 19, 2008 Red with bubbly white head. Aroma is tart and full of leather, in addition to cherry and slightly-vinegar dust and hay, some serious funky urine hiding in there. Flavor is a near perfect balance between sweet, tart cherries and slightly sour vinegar, hay; it’s a little on the sweet end, but the sour cherries are long-lasting. Dry yet refreshing. This isn’t more complex than other lambics, but for me, it’s as satisfying as any that I’ve tasted.
