Tallahassee, Fl. - Liquor Loft - 750 ml caged corked bottle. Pours a murky dark orangish brown with a tight white head that clings to the edges of the glass. Vinegar-like aroma with some sour cherry accents. Flavor is of course, very sour with some sour cherries, sweet tarts and a hint of vinegar. Good stinging mouthfeel - the way a good sour should be. Pretty solid.

Bottle. Pours with a lightly off-white, creamy head and a hazy brown body. Good lacing. Aroma of red wine at a distancee, and closer up some barnyard, fruit, strawberries, cherries and more random fruits I can not put my finger on. Taste is fruity with barnyard and is much more funk than sour. I was hopping for a bit of mouthpuckering. Dry mouthfeel, lively carbonation.

Tart raspberries, sour cherries, apple skins, crab apples, and creamy apple butter on the nose. Pours a cloudy amber. The flavor is sweet, with notes of cherries, apples, tart raspberries. Its funky, light on the palate and a little dry.

Lots of cherry. Brown ale sour. Full of funk and flavor. Really like this one a lot. Tart and sour. Nice.

Bottle.
Pours a deep cherry amber brown with a nice head of off-white. Aroma is woody cherry with dark fruit highlights. Taste is cedar cherry tart, with a lingering finish of the same flavors to boot. Nice mouthfeel. A quality beer for sure. Also shared with the Houston guys at the sour tasting, courtsey of Zinister.

Burgundy brownish red. Soft khaki head. Sweet supple cherry & vinegar aroma. Flavor - leather - almost stinky sweaty feet. Very bitter for a Flemish sour. Cherry pit. Authentic.
