3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
330mL bottle - Pours light golden amber, clear with cascading bubbles that rise up to a thin layer of tiny-bubbled off-white head. Big tart nose, vinegary with cherries, citrus, and a milky funk. Nothing subtle about the taste, either. It blasts with a huge tart wave to begin, citrusy and acidic with that same white vinegar character. The same cherry note is in there, but pretty subtle, and it lingers through the long finish with a little bit of wood and a touch of milkiness. The initial tart blast isn’t sharp and doesn’t increase in power--it just kind of blasts you and stays around, slowly fading through to the finish. It’s viscous, well-carbonated, and coats the mouth. I can’t decide if the tartness is too much or just enough. I think I’ve settled on just enough. A weird beer, and one that would be a good substitute for a really tart gueuze if you’re just looking for mouth-puckering.
