Had this at the 2009 Brewgrass in NC. It was really good. I love sour beers. Just a right balance, very refreshing. Will have to have this one again!

Draft @ the brewery. Pours a copper/amber with a fizzy white ring of a head. On the nose, faint raspberries, cherries, a little honey sweetness. This very attenuated for a fruit beer, not much sweetness at all in the flavor. The cherry is predominant fruit in the flavor, some malt and some alcohol comes through as it warms, faint raspberry notes. A medium mouthfeel with low carbonation. Fairly bland for such a big beer.

Pours a clear amber red color. Aroma is relatively boring for a red and taste to match. Some mellow sweetness with an off bitter aspect.

There were several beers I tasted at PilsnerPeter’s gathering that were my first samples from that brewer, this being one of those. Growler. Pours a mostly clear reddish gold with just a bit of a pinkish tint. Pleasant aroma of malt and orange. This beer fallls apart in the flavor department, which features weak malt and Hawaiian Punch. Dries out towards the finish with light-medium bitterness. I hope my next beer from Pisgah is better than this one!

Growler at PPRBSG09. Pours a light red/pink with a small white head. Aroma of light fruit and melon. Flavor of sweet raspberries and wheat malt. Kind of bland really, meh.

Growler at Peter’s NY gathering - lightly hazy reddish brown - man, this tastes like raspberry cough syrup mixed with some wheaty character and light belgian-ish phenols - quite sweet, adding to the syrupy character that reminds me of cough medicine - blah.
