oldrtybastrd (1801), Morlautern, Germany/Great Falls, Montana, USA Oct 30, 2008 Picked up in Bruges by my friend Gyurke. Pours a reddish brown color. Aromas of dark fruit, yeast, and a touch of wood. Flavor is sour cherries, yeast, wood, and a couple of sweet tarts. borisz (180), Netherlands Oct 25, 2008 Wow, a nice fruity beer.
Bought @ the beerkoning Amsterdam.
Dark red/amber color. Fruity taste like grapes etc. Very nice xpimptastikx (41), Austin, Texas, USA Oct 20, 2008 Pours a reddish deep brown, copper when held to the light. Off white head without much retention. Smells strongly of balsamic vinegar, yeast, cherries, and grapes. Has a sharp up front taste, which proceeds to the feeling you have just ate a slice of bread. Not as sour as the aroma leads on, but could be too much for some people. TheJollyOne (204), Kofu, Japan Oct 19, 2008 Updated: Jan 24, 2009Brownish-red pour with quickly diminishing head. Lovely color. Smell is of sour fruit, cassis and cherry, with strong balsemic vinegar. Taste is of dark cherry and fruits, sourness of vinegar. Palate is fizzy and clean. This beer is a real treat, a personal favourite. illkarate (89), Bloomington, Indiana, USA Oct 12, 2008 Wow - pours a dark reddish brown, almost no head, but a bit of lacing is evident with each sip. Amazing flavor, sour apples, malt and grapes. Finishes very dryly, with oak and soil. jujubeast6000 (772), Houston, Texas, USA Oct 11, 2008 (bottle Exp Date 12/09): Pours a brown-reddish body. Tannish head, small, lastingish. Sour dark fruit aroma, acoholy. Fruity sweet taste. Very fizzy. Not as sour as it smells. Loght fruity, appley. A little flat. Light taste. Might be better w/food. ashot (2), Ontario, Canada does not count Oct 10, 2008 this is rather dard for traditional red beer. it has a perfect balance between sourness and rich fruity aroma. Rotorhead87 (117), Temple, Texas, USA Oct 9, 2008 This is my first sour ale.
Pours a dark reddish brown with a medium head. It immediately smells of vinegar, and also some fruity notes. The taste is a pleasant surprise after the nose, in short, amazing! It has a rich fruity, but somewhat sour, flavor that I have never witnessed before. I am going to have to find more beers like this.
Highly Recommended!
