Sample at GABF 10/07/2017, thanks to my bro for assistance with note-taking. Hazy pinkish-ruby color with a thin pinkish-white head that evaporates steadily. Short strings of lace. Aroma of tart cherry, funky yeast and malt. Medium body with flavors of cherry pie filling, yeast and doughy malt. The finish is tart with a cherry aftertaste. Good beer overall.

bottle from beergium. hazy light red, small white head. aroma has sour notes, sweetened cherries notes, marzipan notes. flavor is very sour, with a sweet fresh fruity layer on top of that. Not as bretty as i had expected, almost tastes like a lambic based fruit beer, as i like those better this is only a positive. the sour flavor is clean and straight sour, alc, which is almost 7%, is well hidden, you'd never tell.. woody notes are nearly non existant, but show themselves in the aftertaste as a dry woody bitterness. Biggest problem with this expensive bottle is that it seems to become empty way too fast. great sour. Cherry flavor is fresh cherries, it's only in the aroma they appear a bit like "cocktail" cherries.

Tasty. Really balanced and smooth, while also pretty complex. Lovely cherries notes, with enough funky and barrel. Not my favourite Almanac, but close, really great stuff.
