Commercial Description:
This bold Belgian Style Ale is a blend of 4 sources of fermentable sugars. American Oak, sour cherries, and three seperate strains of brettanomyces. It takes over a year to make each batch because a beer like this requires patience, creativity, and most importantly, equal parts luck and skill. We know of no other beverage in the world that tastes like this.

Bottle. No head. Just a thin rim. Pitch black. Cherries cocoa burbon wood aroma. Vineous burbon cherries sour flavor with little hops bitterness. Could not taste the raisins. Low carbonation, long aftertaste.

Sampled at Beerhawk’s Beer Gods in the Boro, aka 1000 Bottles of Beer on the Wall, By God Beer God Gathering, BG1K Tasting. Hazy brown pour with lots of floaties and good tan head. Very vinous smelling, like red wine. The tart cherry flavor was certainly not my thing, but it was great for what it was. Medium carbonation. I really liked the breast cancer angle. Very cool to save the boobies while drinking a beer!

Flaske: Flot mørkerød øl med et meget lille skumhoved. Meget fin karbonering. Surheden er efter den første overvældende smag af rosiner og portvin ret kraftig. Samler trådene. Fantastisk at prøve og overraskende velafbalanceret.

2008 Bottle. Pours a flat, muddy reddish brown with a quickly dissipating head. Aroma is aged maraschino cherries, like a cherry port wine. Flavor is sweet cherry and oakiness with no detectable bitterness. Body is a bit syrupy. It’s a good brew, but I prefer the lighter bodied domestic sours like Red Poppy and Supplication.

BeerHawk’s Beer Gods in the Boro, aka 1000 Bottles of Beer on the Wall, By God Beer God Gathering, BG1K Tasting. Sample from a bottle thanks to BeerHawk. Thanks for sharing such a rarity. Dark red-brown to brown with some quick off white head. Aroma is sour cherries and oaken vanilla. Taste is oaky, sweet dark malt, dark fruits and raisins with a lightly tart finish.

On tap at the 2009 Belgian Beer Fest. Pours a dark reddish brown with light tan head. Cherries, tart apple, oak, dark fruits, raisins, and vanilla. Very sour and complex. This is really really good. Definitely one of the best out there.
