Jul 6, 2008 Cloudy amber body with a soft white head - Sweet and malty, huge tart component of cherry and, maybe apple, and a sour wood hint. Yeasty with a noticeable spice presence. The caramel malt is really present in heavy doses - with an near-bready quality - especially on the finish, where is is soft and soothing. My first Jolly Pumpkin ale - truly a work of art - a superb and unique drink.

Jun 21, 2008 Nice sour presence. Flemish sour butore intresting. Carmel notes and a bit sour sweet. The spice and barels aged sour round out the brew.

Jun 15, 2008 Bomber shared with and courtesy of Maniac. SRM 20 cloudy golden amber with large rocky off-white head. Aroma of carmelized malts, oak, and some spicey yeast phenolics with a hint of cherry. Flavor is slightly sour acidic oak with some spicey yeast character. Finishses dry with oak astringency and a bit of alchohol warming. Excellent.

Jun 14, 2008 Cloudy dark amber body (SRM of 22 according to my new BJCP Color Guide) with a medium rocky off-white head. Sour fruit aroma with light raisin, caramel, molassas, and oak hints. More sour flavor, light fruitiness, with the oak starting to shine through more, and a bit of caramel. Medium body with mdoerately high carbonation and nice sour finish.

Jun 8, 2008 Bottle says Biere de Garde. Carbonated emough that it tries to foam it’s way out of the bottle. Sort of a red caramel colour. Light foam head. Smells like a sour ale. A touch of a cheese edge to the scent. Lively body. Dark malt and very sour. Starts out a little thin, sour and half wine-like. BIgger lasting head in the bottle than in the glass! Tastes better and better as you drink, or as the alcohol sinks in.

Jun 7, 2008 Pours reddish brown with light tan head. Funky sour aroma. Slightly sour with earthy and musty flavors. Not as sour as I was expecting, but very good. Medium body with minimal carbonation and a short dry finish. My first beer from JP and I look foward to trying more.
