Jan 9, 2007 12 oz bottle. Murky purple brown with a small whitish head. Random lacing. Light cinnamon cherry. Soft, woody cherry at first with a subdued. tang. Gets earthy sour. Raspberry vinegrette and dandelion greens. Minty finish with pits. Sticky, medium body. Like a fruit saison more than a sour. Not as up front as the Red and the Tart. Unique stuff worthy of perusal.

Jan 8, 2007 Bottle thanks to ross. Pours out a hazy orangish brown with a loose of white head. Looks like fresh apple cider. Sour bretty aroma with a hint of cherry, some oak and peat and an earthy malt background. Lots of upfront sour cherry flavor and oak. Vanilla and and malts coming out as you swallow and a hint of brett sits on the back of the tongue. Solid medium body with a very soft carbonation.

Jan 6, 2007 Pours a dark mahogany color with nice tan head. Aroma of sour fruits (cherries, grapes, apples) with hints of oak and spices. Tastes like dark fruits (prunes, plums, grapes) and oak in the mouth and finishes with the wonderful taste of tart cherries. New Glarus almost makes me want to move to Wisconsin.

Jan 4, 2007 Updated: Jan 5, 2007Wildly weird beer...it pours a great rich brown with ruby highlights and a tan head. Aroma is slightly tart and acidic. The flavors are a wildly unpredictable amalgam of tart cherries, vanilla, oak, caramel, sour and tart dried mystery fruits, touches of charred wood and smoke, wild Belgian yeastiness, and some citrusy PNW-type hopping. This is a hell of a sour brown ale...no question about it. I look forward to enjoying these again. Just might be the all-around best Flemish sour for the uninitiated!

Jan 4, 2007 My First Flemish Sour Ale - I Didn’t even know there was such a thing. I could see developing a taste for this. Too much beer, not enough time.
