| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 19, 2008 Bottle with the old oval label, my beer guy told me he’d aged this before putting it out. Pours amber with a taut, off white head. Aroma of cherries, bourbon, oak, apples, leaves. Flavor is stunning: it starts slightly sour with a rush of sour cherries and oak, a bit of bourbon, then a clean sour finish. Mouthfeel is great, and overall this is one of the best tasting beer i’ve ever had in my life. esjaygee (1519), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA

Taste of cherry, mild fruit, berry, grain, wood. Sour as expected throughout but a decent beer as I’m becoming a fan of the style. KimJohansen (6909), Copenhagen V, Denmark

Dark cherry red color, small pinky head. Light woody, sour cherry aroma. Oaky-woody, cherry-fruity flavor, lightly sour. Alcoholic dry oaky aftertaste. Interesting "artisan amber ale". sayravai (3729), Helsinki, Finland

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 3, 2008 Pours a hazy red with a huge off-white head. Smells of yeast, funk, a touch of alcohol, and citrus fruit. Lively, prickly carbonation. Flavor is sour fruit with some bitter, dough-like yeast. Feels a bit thin on the palate and the acidity is low for a sour ale. Overall, the flavor is mild and very drinkable.
