Feb 19, 2007 Updated: Feb 20, 2007sample at pub. The brett was a bit much for me on this one, but another solid beer. Nice complexity.

Feb 18, 2007 Bottle (batch 001) from Vinnie. Strong aroma with hints of vanilla and apricots soon overtaken by earthy brett-aromas. Murky dark yellow with small white head. Flavor is complex, slightly sour with a dry, bitter finish. Aftertaste is tart and fruity with marzipan kicking in. Smooth mouth feel and mellow carbonation. Tart, but balanced without the vinegar notes as many Belgian sour ales and with so many layers of complexity revealing itself up as at warms. *Very* nice! Enjoyed with aged Pie D’anglois and my homemade rye bread, which it complemented beautifully :-)

Feb 12, 2007 Updated: Apr 6, 2008Batch 002. Slightly hazy, pale body with medium sized off-white head. The aroma is heavy brett, pineapple, cobwebs, light horseblanket, some peach and honey. The flavor is slightly sweet, mildly tart, pineapple, peach, pear, green apple and slightly herbal. Medium body with soft carbonation and a soft and smooth texture, just a touch tannic on the finish. Lovely.

Feb 11, 2007 Updated: Jan 10, 2008Pours a hazy rich golden color with a very light bubbly white head. Very effervescent and inviting looking. A very thick, rich, acidic orange smell is present. Get other semblances of different citrus fruits as well. Taste is pretty sour but blended well with the orange peel, and slight bitterness. I could drink this all the time, it is so refreshing. The spices mixed with the acidity are really very enjoyable with this beer. They did an awesome job here!

Jan 30, 2007 Updated: Feb 6, 2007Bottle via Vinnie from RR comping me due to my mistake (yep Vinnie frakkin’ rules!). Batch 001.Been saving this for 6 months. Pours a crystal clear gold with a large white head that leaves more than enough lace on my Pilsner glass. Nose is unique-sort of a cross between a champaigne and a fine red wine. Taste is quite unique. Like most RR beers, it starts with an explosion of fruit. THis one starts with my favorite apples;pink ladies, then some peach & strawberries, and then the pink lady finishes again. Dry clean finish. Medium body. I do not care for this style, but honestly this is great stuff. I liken it to a punk rocker that recognizes the best C & W band he has ever heard.....and knows it is good..and that all is well! I hate the style but love this beer, what more can u seay?! Get it & try it if u know whats good 4 u?!
