Nov 25, 2006 12 oz bottle. Murky brown color with off white head that left a bit of lace on the glass. Attractive aroma of fresh cherries and oak. Sweet, sour, and tangy all at once with cherry, white wine, and subdued oak flavors. Not for everyone, but very tasty.

Dec 4, 2006 Pours a cloudy brown, like strong iced tea with lemon, and almost no head. Aroma is of sour cherries, like the Cherry Stout. I guess if you’ve got something good, you stick with it... Taste follows the aroma, with a hint of oak at the end.

May 5, 2007 sample from bottle at the Hampton tasting - This reddish-brown brew has an excellent aroma of oak, malt, fruit, and cherry. All of these elements come through well in the flavor, which is both sweet and tart. Medium bodied and mildly dry in the finish, this is really good.

Sep 27, 2007 Thanks KingpinIPA! Pour is a murky brown with a small white head. Looks like apple cider. Smells of sour cherries and a bit nutty/woody. Taste is not nearly as sour as anticipated...mostly sour cherry...wine-like. Palate is smooth and dry. Nice beer.

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.

Feb 10, 2007 Updated: Aug 20, 2008(Bottle, thanks JCapriotti) Pours hazy red.

Some orange and grapefruit. Medium bodied. Blursi likes, marsi don´t.

Aug 11, 2007 Yummy. Well balanced with a deep cherry, oak, woodsiness. Very good. The aroma is very cherry and oaky. Pours with a slight white head and a dried cherry color. Taste is sweet and smooth cherry and oak and finishes with a sharp, dry oakiness. Very different. It is like the oak replaces the hops. Yeah!
