Pinball	3.8 Cascade Kagua Sour corked and caged bottle, 2018, tasted apr 4 2024 pours chestnut brown with a small white to offwhite head. Aroma is sour and slightly malty - it fits totally in the sour belgian bruin category for me, was I blind tasting I would place the beer definetly from belgium, as a sour bruin, one of the finer ones. the sourness (vinagre salad dressing sour) is toned by several finer complexity adding notes like wood, bourbon wood, roasted malts. all notes I can find could be brewing-process derived rather than just fruit and stuff added. great aroma almost a 9. much closer to 8.5 than 8. Flavor has some notes from the added yuzu and perhaps also the pepper, base beer seem to be seriously sour, also seems to lack a little bit of yeasty body, compared to the belgians. very decent sour with lots of complexity to explore. The alc.% is fitting and not spoiling anything, good collaboration, has kept very well the 6 years since botteling, could keep for years more I think. Wednesday, April 3, 2024
