A blend of whiskey barrel, wine foeder, and stainless aged sour beers, Love Child No. 4 opens with an aroma of red fruit and underripe strawberries. Slightly more acidic than previous Love Child releases, this blend marries dark fruit flavors with subtle earthy notes of leather and mushroom with a lingering, acid finish that closes crisp and dry.

Den andra i Boulevards Love child-serie jag har smakat. Bärnsten med inslag av orange och rött. Minimal skumslöja. Syrlig doft av citrus och grape. Hittar ingen brett i doften. Men det kan bero på att den var lite för kall när den slogs upp i glaset. I smaken finns en strävhet och murrighet som kommer från jästen. Men inte mycket. Syrligheten i smaken påminner mer om osötad saft och saknar komplexitet. Summerar denna som "den svenska modellen", en kompromiss, där inget blir bra och slutresultatet gör ingen nöjd.

Bottle, 75cl corked, at Christianssand Brygghus. A clear one, amber in color, with a small, dense off-white head. The aroma is very fruity, with red berries, some caramel malts and vinegar. Hints of alcohol both in the aroma and the flavor. Berries, some almonds and dried apricots, a funky touch and some vinegar. It’s more or less full bodied, with a soft carbonation, quite dry, lightly tart. Lasting fruity finish. A very pleasant one, refreshing and tasteful, although I prefer the aroma over the flavor. Just slightly though. 150328

Hazy amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light, dry and crisp. Pretty tart, wet wood, dankness. Dried fruits and lemon acid. A bit too sharp.

Refrigerated 75 cl brown bottle corked and capped poured into a tulip. Aroma is nice tart cherry, medium body, medium carbonation, and thin small bubble lacing. Taste is tart cherries, oak, and really nice red wine. Really good, but closer to a Flemish red to me rather than just a regular sour.
