Split a 750ml bottle at B Side in Virginia. Poured a clear ruby color with a medium sized off-white head. Aroma was light sour cherries, woody, bourbon notes. Light vanilla, some funk. Flavor was funky notes, sour, tart cherries. Barrel aging creates a smooth beer. Perhaps not the best attempt at a sour beer, but subtle enough to be pretty enjoyable.

750 mL bottle from Beer Run shared at the DC Summer Saison & Sour Tasting, 7/12/14. Pours a slightly hazy amber color with a thin frothy tan head. Decent head retention. Aroma of bourbon, wood, stone fruits, mild tartness. The taste is caramel, acetic sourness, mild wood and whiskey. Medium bodied, lingering tartness. 100th Blue Mountain Rating!
