Bottle opens with a gush and pours a deep ruddy red color with a dense tan head. Aroma of caramel, sour cherries, red apples, grapes, damp oak and cinnamon. Sour dark fruit and cherry flavor. Lots of caramel sweetness and oak balance the sourness. A touch cloying though. Medium body with lots of carbonation. SpringsLicker (2042), Tennessee, USA

Acidic sour apple aroma. Funky and musty.

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 18/20 | May 27, 2009 11.2 oz bottle Rock On Third Royal Oak, MI. I had this while I watched Detroit beat Chicago into the hockey history books. It poured a dark brownish with an off white head. And I can’t remember the last time I was this pleasantly surprised with a beer. I got this on a whim, never having heard of it, and it was amazing. Sour and sweet notes dominate the flavor, with some hints of granny smith apple on the finish. Amazing. cheers! MereLikesBeer (154), Royal Oak, Michigan, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 27, 2009 This beer was mighty tasty! That’s almost all I have to say about it. I tried a bit of it at a bar that was dimly lit, so my guess for appearance is sort of swayed. Taste and aroma, however, were amazing. I almost didn’t know what to think of it. It had a VERY strong smell, fruity, and at first I couldn’t pinpoint it, but it was certainly vinegar. Amazing! Taste was just out of control. It was like candy yet sour too... man, out of this world. I just cant wait to have some more. BeerBaby (62), , Tennessee, USA
