Bottle Dark cherry-brick red. Nose is subtle. Murky malts, old hay, old overripe red fruits, some vinegar. Body is sourish, but also quite well bodied. Murky red berries, even some plums. Some barnyard, horse. Overall a likable brew. quite full, soft, and red berried.

Pours deep ruby red with a big frothy head. Aroma is apple cider vinegar. Hard for me to pick the nuances in the aroma because that’s really all I can smell; this is probably a result of my inexperience with sours. I do get a hint of citrus if I try really hard to smell beyond the ACV. Taste is pretty sweet. With tasting, more of the fruit notes come through: predominately apple, but also some citrus and grape. Getting almost no hop notes at all. Kind of like a fruit beer, but with a little more funk. Mouthfeel is light with light carbonation as well. Interesting and refreshing. Would like to try more sours so I have something to compare this to.

Everything good except its sour, taste crisp like wine & apple cider. Smell sweet seeing oak barrel. But sour is not something for me

Red-ish brown with a small amount of brown-ish head. Aroma is sour with berries and dark fruits. One could describe the aroma as vinous too. Flavour is sour, fruity, vinegary and vinous.

UPDATED: APR 19, 2013 Where do I start? This beer is great. Pours a deep red with a large white head. Aroma of Belgian yeast and fruit. Not overly sour and balanced with a sweet finish. This is candy not beer.
