Bitter and sweet, with many berry-fruit tones. Aged in oak barrels, which gives it a good rich flavor.

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!

Oct 7, 2008 Pours a dark rusty reddish color with a thick foamy head. Smells of tart cherries, apples, and fermented grapes. First sip is mellow with sours notes that are subdued and quiet, not “In your face.” Cherries, green apples, raisins, maybe a tad of brown sugar, all combining in flavor. Creamy mouthfeel, but slightly under carbonated. Considerably more sweeter than sour, the brew finishes well with a little stronger bitterness. Very Good.

Oct 5, 2008 Draught at City Beer, San Francisco, July 2008. Pours a brownish red with a wonderful, fluffy, aromatic head. The aroma is fruity and a bit sour. I taste caramel, dark fruit like cherry, some apple, raisin. Wonderfully sour and nicely balanced.
