Mar 26, 2009 Aroma of Balsamic vinegar. Pours a deep red/brown with a fizzy head. Wooooow.I did, but I didnt expect that. First drink, bad, second drink, dynamite. Heavy flavor of apple cider vinegar, Im liking it. Somewhat dry and tart finish.

Mar 25, 2009 14/03 0.75 l bottle from beershop.hr, shared with Doggythedog. It poured dark brown body, deep red on direct light, with medium sized brownish head. Nice caramel aroma with vinous sourness, a bit of chocolate and some sugar as well. It had even more untypical malty sweetish flavor. Malty caramel and chocolate are just the basic things felt here, it had some fruitiness, spices, yeast is felt as well. Of course, that typical sourness is present here a lot, but much more than I’ve used to encounter. Full bodied and a bit cloying with longer sweetish, sour, even slightly bitter finish. Notes of cork as well. This is a strange sour ale for its own good and I liked so much that perfect balance of flavors.

Mar 22, 2009 On tap. Deep ruby brown, aroma is acidic and malty. Tart taste with some cherries, brown sugar, some raisin, and woodiness. Not a huge fan.

Mar 22, 2009 Pours deep brown with a red tinge and no real head. Aroma is surprisingly vinegary, somewhere nearer balsamic vinegar than malt vinegar. Taste is initially vinegar sour, with tart cherries and a grapey wine-like character and sharp apples. The sour start is balanced out by a pretty sweet finish, raiseny and belgian yeast. Lots going on in there, a complex and tasty beer.
