3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Tap @ CBC. Deep cherry red color, hazy with no head whatsoever. The aroma is deep sugary cherries, angel food cake, spun sugar. Very jammy and lively. The taste is jammy cherry and strawberry, light sugared fruits, some barnyard yeast and faint funk. The body’s light, the carbonation is prickly. Overall, a decent wild ale. Nothing out of the ordinary. Good though.

On tap @ Copenhagen Beer Celebration. Slightly hazy honey-hued orange body, small white head. Aroma is apple vinegar, hints of lemon and...well, not much else. Taste is strong vinegar acidic notes, balsamic and hints of lemon. Too one-dimensional for me, but others might like this sort of thing. :-P Still, it’s a well-made beer and I’m glad to have tried it.

4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
Tap at CBC. Probably the most popular beer poured at our booth. Cheap and not really that much less complex and delicious compared to 1983 Dirty Horse which kicked very quickly both days. This Keralensis batch did not get a big acetobcacter infection like the Cherilensis.
Full haze strawberry pour with retentive pink foam. Sheets of lace atop a glowing light purple pour. Nose is a bit eggy, sharp cherry and real strawberry. None of that sticky strawberry flavoring nonsense. Taste is sharp, salty, lightly spice with muted acetic heat from the Alvinne blend. New Glarus Enigma like with a sweet and sour playoff from the blending. Blend subdues the acetic heat. Quenching. Fully successful at the style.
