Crazy blast of sour aroma. I smell bitter orange and lemon along with some light cherry notes. The flavor is crazy acidic with a big wood presence. Lemon peel, orange, cherry, spice, wood, some barnyard funk. Damn this is awesome. Tweety (343), Vancouver, Washington, USA

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Apr 7, 2009 Special thanks to JMFG and CMillward both for giving me tastes of this exceptional brew. One of my new favorites. Pours a brownish color with a red tint. Aroma is dusty and fruity, with a nice berry sourness. Flavors continue, with a mustiness and extreme sourness of sweet berries and apples and a little oak. This beer is fantastic. daknole (2882), Plantation, Florida, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 6, 2009 2008 bottle shared by a great guy named Brent at Brother Tuckers. pours a nice brown color with a good off white head. Aroma is very complex and quite nice. I got some tart apples, cherries, some yeast, lemons, red wine vinegar, funk and some wet wood. Flavor is sour as hell, like a really good cabernet vinegar. I taste some woody notes, chirries, raspberries and nice earthy tones. For a beer this sour I actually enjoyed it more than I would have imagined. Yikes. What am I saying??? unclemike (834), Ft.

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 5, 2009 batch 109- 1946 This poured a gorgeous red brown with a towering whitish head. Tons of bubbles. The head gently subsided though leaving a thin layer that stuck around through most of the glass. Aroma of green apples, cherries, brett and wood. The flavor of this was just fantastic: sour, tart, smooth oakiness. It just wrapped itself around your mouth: bubbly, and dry enough not to be cloying at all. Glad for the advice to drink this fresh!
