Sep 6, 2009 Bomber, shared. Pours a reddish-brown with no head to speak of. Aroma is sour fruit (strawberry, cherry, plum), a large wood characteristic, and a slightly astringent characteristic. Taste is heavy on the sour fruit, with a wood characteristic and an astringent (lacto, I’d imagine) finish to the beer. Not very carbonated, and finishing it was a bit of a chore, but drinkable and enjoyable.

Aug 31, 2009 750 mL bottle. 2007-Batch #9 from The WIne and Cheese Place. Pours a deep red brown hue. A big cream brown head forms then disapates. A small amount of small bubbles fill a good amount of the body. Nose is full of a sour powerdered candy, some muted but complex wood tones. Flavors start very wooden. Very nice oak flavors, not overly stated. A slight vineger sourness at first but sutle. A little salty, with a slight non sweet cherry flavor to it and some mild funk. Mouth is very dry, mouth has a lot of wine characteristics to it.
