Jun 4, 2009 Verre de dégustation, d’une bouteille, au Mondial 2009. Arômes de vin rouge, avec des notes boisées et lactiques. Robe brune aux reflets rouges, peu de mousse et effervescence moyenne. En bouche, des fruits rouges accompagnent des notes boisées et vineuses et mènent à une finale lactique où se mèlent les tanins de chêne. L’alcool est très bien dissimulé.

May 25, 2009 750ml 2006 bottle. Deep red-brown. Clearly has lost some carbonation, there is no head. Mellow sour cherry aroma. Tart and tangy, it is certainly still enjoyable for an enthusiast of the style, but I’d assume your average bar customer would try to return this. Deep and wine-like, lots of cherry and oak tastes. Rich and sticky, the alcohol is barely noticeable. Seems a little hollow without any carbonation, but great nonetheless.

May 21, 2009 750 mL- 2007 version. Pours a cloudy, muddy, dark reddish brown with a one finger silky white head that has great retention. Leaves beautiful lacing throughout. Aroma of sour black cherries, black currant, raspberries, spice, balsamic vinegar, and port wine with some oakiness in the background. Taste at first is overwhelmed by sour and vinegary notes but then moves to some spicy alcohol and finishes with strong oak. Over time, the sourness becomes less pungent and astringent and more like red wine with the wood and alcohol presence of port. There is even some milky creaminess that begins to reveal itself. 8% is perfectly hidden. Long, tart, fruity finish. Awesome.

May 1, 2009 Bottle. Pours plum brown, almost no head. Smells like apple cider vinegar, hint of cinnamon and plum. Extremely soft mouthfeel, barely carbonated. Fairly sour but not the most sour I’ve ever had. I assume I just got a bad bottle, because this is probably a great beer if it is actually carbonated.
