May 19, 2013 - batch 9 bottle via trade. Brownish orange pour with limited head that faded quickly. Sour cherries, brett and wood in the aroma. Taste was consistent with aroma, but little bit more wood and red wine than brett.

Bottle thanks to Tom. Pours a orange ruby with medium frothy off white head that lasts awhile leaving spotty lacing. The aroma is cherry skin, brett, and wine. Thin mouthfeel with a strong cherry and oak flavor with very nice sour finish. Really enjoyed this one.

Wonderful deep red pour with a thin head. Smells sour with a hint of wine in the aroma. Taste is something to behold. Very different from anything I’ve ever had. A must drink for wine lovers. Palate is a bit too sour for my taste but wins points for sheer ingenuity and for the many fantastic flavors. Great beer and worth hunting for!
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
Clear reddish copper with a small white head that lasts for some time. Aroma is acetic, some green apples, and some slight red fruits touch. Flavor is sour, with some ripe apple, slight lemon and a viney wood note, very good. Medium to light mouthfeel, dry sourness but plenty of favor with a rather gentle aftertaste, refreshing.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle at the Trappist in Oakland. Sour, a little tart, but otherwise smooth and flavoursome. Very dark red with a creamy head. Nice mixture of sour and cherries. Very palatable and quite deep.
3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours a hazy brown with little to no head. Aroma of sour fruit and lite oak and funk smells. Taste is definitely sour but not over the top and cherries with some leather/oak flavors. Overall it is a great sour and a hard to style to duplicate this quality.
