Apr 7, 2005 Blood red colour. Big aroma with lots of woody notes, hints of vinegar, dashes of fruit. Massive acidic flavour, deeply fruity (berries, cherries), woodiness...yeah I need more of this one.

Jan 24, 2005 750 ml, silver foil, drunkenly slurped with MartinT, tiggmtl and Rastacouere. Dirty, thick brown with no head...bit malty sour cherry nose, sweet thick and minty with some wood and alcohol noticeable...gorgeous alcoholic cognac-cherry liqueur on the tongue, sticky and thick with maybe a little too much alcohol...very pleasant super-Flemish sour though I think not exactly my thing...still, the work of a master, original brewer.

Oct 20, 2004 Sweet and sour at the same time. Extremely fruity. Not artificial at all. The berries taste great in combination with the underlying sourness. A honour to get to drink this thank you Jens!

Jan 31, 2005 Updated: Nov 25, 2007On tap@O’brien’s: Dark burgundy color, no head. Dark fruit (black cherry) aroma. Flavor is merlot like, tart black cherry, syrupy with a lightly sour finish. Palate is smooth. WOW, an amazing brew from the genius of "The Tomme Arthur".

Apr 6, 2005 March Tosa Tasting, Gold Foil-North Vineyard via MrFacto. Light chestnut color with a fizzy dissipating head. Mild aromas of sour cherries, oak and rich red wine. Full flavored is one way to describe, with full tannins and plenty of oak. Cherries, light fruit, hints of spice and deep cabernet wine tendencies. Very quaffable and enjoyable.

Oct 1, 2004 Draft at GABF. Nice dark red color. Good, faint cherry aroma. Brown head. Strong cherry taste up front. Finish gets bready. Alcohol is up there, noticable, but balanced and appropriate. Good beer for sure.

Oct 8, 2002 A winner here. Very smooth and rich, winey, but not too much so like the 15th anniversary. Would buy this agin, if I could find it.
