Bottle. Pour is amber and cloudy with a thin tan head. Aroma and flavor are pleasantly tart with hints of oak, vanilla, and light berry. Very nice.

Pours a hazy dirty reddish brown. A little bit of white head. Nose is dark fruit. Tart, sour, a little woody. Nice finish. A very nice sour!

Bottle from la cave du vin: pours murky brownish red, thin tam ring that persists. Nose is raspberries, cherries, prunes, Brett funk, oak. Flavors of tart cherries, cola, Brett funk, citric acids, sour niceness. Medium bodied. Tart and well worth a try. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

750mL Bottle, thanks for sharing, Jonah. Clean malt with straightforward wood and tart acid aroma. Cherry flavors, barrel-oriented ride through. A bit of lingering sweetness mid-palate, but with a drying and complex finish. There is some harsh acid throughout that puts me off of this a little bit and I find myself digging for complexity and breadth. I want a little more something from the malt and funk, spice, toastiness, fruitiness, not sure. But I think it lacks a little depth and sophistication.

The beer pours a dark red color with a white head. The aroma has a ton of cranberries and cherries in it, as well as a good bit of tartness. The flavor is similar. The tart cranberries really come through nicely, as does a dose of dark cherries. There is a nice toffee malt backbone, as well as some nice funk. Another welcome dimension to the flavor is a good bit of leather and tobacco. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation. Glad I got to try this one.

Bottle thanks to someone you escapes me! Pours a very hazy ruby brown with a tab head that starts at the edges and remains. Aroma has sour red fruit, specifically cranberry, balsamic, acid and a hint of oak. Flavor has balsamic and bitter/sour red fruit backed by oak and tannins. A touch thin in the finish.

Bottle. 25.4 oz. This was part of the collaboration with Cigar City. Split with and courtesy of Pat. Pours a murky and dark ruby mahogany brownish maroon with a thin, lacy, patchy tan head. Tightly bubbled, Aroma of currants, Bretty farmhouse funk, lactic acids, cherries, balsamic vinegar, and lemon aide. Medium bodied with a round, robust, yet extremely tart and tongue puckineringly palate. Flavor is filled with raspberries, cherries, figs, plums, and bloody metallic notes in the finish. Finishes slightly boozey and overall pleasently warming. Excellent sour ale

Served from a 750 mL bottle from OTM. The appearance is a deep burgundy brown.. Nice lacing off white to cream head. The nose is tart with oak and cranberries, with some leathery notes. The flavors enter with some mango and pineapple for a moment then a healthy does of souring fruits. Tons of cranberries past that with a wonderful sour edge. Loads of oak and leather pound the tongue with a long drying finish. The flavors turn into a cran-grape drink which I enjoyed. Absolutely fantastic brew here. Wish this wasn’t a one time brew or I wish I had more.

Bottle at WWBA Brooklyn. I’d been wanting to try this for a while, and it met my hopes! Pours a dark mahogany with minimal head. Rich aroma of balsamic, oak, marshmallows, and pipe. A really great mix of oak, smoke, sour, acetic, and sweetness. Reminded me a bit of New Glarus Enigma, although slightly more acetic and slightly less complex. Excellent stuff!
