Amber brown pour with a decent head. Sour fruit smell. Flavor is nice and big and granulated sugar like. Not bad and actually almost comforting like a dessert. renffisch (495), london, Greater London, England Jun 1, 2008 33cl bottle at home. darkest red brown, medium bubble sized, off-white head. very sweet nose with heavy lactic acid notes. Vanilla, cherries and heaps of sour. Almost wine-like. very complex, metal finish. not bad :-) Todeon (314), Sweden May 31, 2008 Updated: Jan 11, 2009Bottle 33cl. Really nice red color with a mini head. Aroma is really fruity with cherry and oak. Taste is sour and lots of cherry and oak and plenty of acidity. Really good! petermadsen (391), Vesterbronxxx, Denmark May 31, 2008 A reddish beer with a vaguely brown head. Aroma is fruity with cherry and port dominating. The flavour is PANG, straght forward fruity and sour with a very balanced funky flavour. Really good with loads of port character and a great aging potential. Kerath (5), USA does not count May 31, 2008 Draft. I’ll admit sweet beer isn’t my thing but I found this to be very interesting. I really liked the flavor of cherry with a mildly sour finish. Enjoyable. chimpscampee (556), Madison, Wisconsin, USA May 30, 2008 Cool tan head of tiny bubble foam clings to the glass when you swirl it. I am amazed that I enjoyed this flemish sour ale since it hasn’t been my thing on previous tries. Odd fragrance and flavor of balslmic vinegar, sweet cherry, tart rasberry, and sour lemon and grapefruit. So from nose to aftertaste this is a rollercoaster. The sourness doesn’t hit hard until the finish and then fades in the aftertaste. Defreni (994), Frederiksberg, Denmark May 28, 2008 Flaske. SUr duft. Min gravide kone var ikke helt tilfreds med duften. Farven er mørk rav. Smagen er sur igen, men dette er nok fordi jeg har svært ved at komme ud over det når det bliver for meget. Her er det lige på grænsen. Men ellers er der en del maltbase der kan anes. Drikbar efter et par slurke, men ikke blid nok til mig. tripelthreat (75), Soquel, California, USA May 28, 2008 Bottle. Reddish brown with large tan head that fades. Muted sourness in the aroma, vinegary at times. Tart cherry, raspberry, and lemon zest flavors that are complemented by considerable sweetness. Pleasant woodiness that comes and goes and tart spice that sticks in the back of my throat. It finishes with lingering back and forth of sweet and sour. Really a pleasure to drink.
