Nov 29, 2008 Wonderful green apple and sour cherry aroma starts this beer off. It pours a bright red, with a dusting of off-white head. Very tart flavor, green apple, sour cherries, and a touch of funk. If you like sour beers... this is one to try.

Nov 29, 2008 Updated: Mar 15, 2009Tap at the Hop Leaf. Stunning dark color. Aroma of yeast, oak, citrus. Additional flavors that come through are moss and faint hints of vanilla. Reminiscent of Rodenbach Grand Cru.

Nov 20, 2008 Updated: Jan 11, 2009[On tap at Hopleaf] This is a great beer! Dark ruby red with a creamy tan thick head. Aroma of tart and sweet cherries, dusty yeast and barrel. Near perfect flavor, tart and sour without being undrinkable, right on the edge, fantastic balance of barrel, cherries, and acid. The finish is really nice and nonabrasive. Medium body with fine carbonation. Fantastic! [On tap at MapRoom] Still fantastic and ever so quaffable!

Nov 20, 2008 750 ml, #71084856, thanks CMUbeerman. Red pour with a tan head. Oak, vinegar and cherry in the aroma. Rocky flavor, but smooth finish. Tannic. Enjoyable but the astringency of the finish is intense. A more in your face Rodenbach.

Nov 20, 2008 FoBAB 2008 offering: #812 - My first go at La Folie. Was very excited for it. Brownish auburn hazed hue, tiny offwhite head. A touch of funk in the nose, tart up front, deeper red wine characteristics with sour cherries and oak making some prominent displays within. Finishes tart and dry, reminiscent of the oak. Sour on the whole. Very very nice.

Nov 20, 2008 Pours brownish-red with a pinkish head. Aroma of cherry cobbler and wood. Taste is super-sour cherries, which is accentuated by the carbonation. The sweetness of the brown ale base comes through in the end, cleaning the palate before the next sip unleashes on your tongue. The oak appears towards the end of the glass as the beer warms. Very nice.
