For Donald Trump for win in North Carolina. Never surrender, never stop fight. I'm Always believe in truth and democracy. no to jestem wikingiem teraz. prawie zerowy brak piany zero chmielnosci i 100% cierpkosci wytrawnosci i kwasnosci to co ja czyli wikingi lubia najbardziej. zakwas buraczany przemieszany z odrobina drylowanych kwasnych wisni. super bordowa barwa rozowo buraczana. w aromacie no pieknie jak kompot wisniony z dolana kapusta kiszona z czerwonej kapusty rzecz jasna. mega kwasne jak przynajmniej 7-8 letni Rodenbach. pierwszy lyk dla wytrawnego testera i milosnika lambickow to nawet ja sie skrzywilem z tej cierpkosci, coz moja mina tez taka bedzie po pierwszych decyzjach J. Bidena, dlatego dedykuje to piwo, a wlasciwie moja mine politykom w jego szeregu, a zwłaszcza tym co ponownie liczyli głosy w tym stanie. Good bless America and save from comunist.

Lots of vinegar here, balsamic with hints of apple cider, undercut by a modest caramel-berry vein and dry floral notes on the finish. Citric sourness rounds out the profile, while the tiniest bit of dried fruit adds sweetness. Pours dark red-brown with a brief head and no lace. Nose offers up caramel, berry, and soy. Sparkly texture is what you want in a sour. Interesting, but not my favorite.

$3.50 bottle, Wine Warehouse. The label doesn't say "Fraoch" anywhere anymore. Just "Viking" and "Scottich-style sour ale." Pours clear amber with a dusting of a head. Aroma is tart fruit - cherry perhaps, lightly floral, light honey. Flavor is tart cherry, balsamic vinegar, light greens. Tangy is the best way to describe this. Interesting, kinda tasty.

On tap at Craft Brewed, pours a clear amber orange with a small off-white head. Aroma smells like Duchesse, with balsamic, caramel, tart red fruits and Worcestershire sauce. Flavour is along the same lines, with tart red fruits, balsamic and medium sweetness. Very nice sweet and sour balance, with a pleasantly acetic finish. Simple, but nicely made.

Sampled on draft at the Brookhaven Beer Growler. Pours a clear, reddish, brown color, with a big, frothy, beige head. The nose is peat, heather, lemon, cloves, and chalk. Sweet and tangy. Light body, with an acidic, grainy mouthfeel. This is an interesting and nicely tart beer.
