Jan 30, 2009 Bottle thanks to Lumpy. All I can say is WoW!!! Aroma of strong brett, tangy, makes your nose hairs stand up. Flavor is great, sour, very sour, grapes, brett. Mouthfeel wise, this stuff almost evaporates on your tongue, very interesting, very fizzy. Overall, one of my new fav’s. Great stuff!

Jan 29, 2009 Bottle -C&C- from Bottle Barn. Ruby amber color with a tan head that fizzed away at once. Aromas of sour over oak. Flavor is sour cherry with astringent oak. It’s not acidic sour. It’s lightly funky sour. There’s a lot of fruit mixed in with the sour. Tartly refreshing. I have no idea what other ale this resembles. I could say Flemish sour, but it’s not really exactly. Goes down quite a treat. Yum!

Jan 28, 2009 Updated: May 31, 2009bottle at Ft Wayne locals tasting - Pours reddish-brown and it definitely smells like brett along with some tart cherry notes. The sour flavor balances the fruit notes well with the brett characteristics. It’s not overpowering in any aspect. It’s very good though it didn’t blow me away. I’d love to get another chance to try it and take some more time.
Rerate at the latest Ft Wayne tasting - My notes are very similar to my first rating. Really tart beer. Very good. 7/4/8/4/16

Jan 25, 2009 750ml bottle:2008 vintage. Tart fruity aroma, tan head, brown color. Thanks Sean. Sours are my favorites and this is at the top of the list. The age really shows well as no one element over powers another.the complex fruit profile seems different with each taste. Awesome beer!
