High Wycombe House Warming. Almost clear deep amber beer, thin pale tan head. Light palate, semi dry and finely crisp. A very light touch of Flemish red sour fruits. Oaky sweetness. More light fruits and then a touch of Coca Cola. Not too sour and hides the abv well.

Capped 750 from Bine & Vine. Pours brown with a beige head. Aroma of red berry, leather and wood. Near full bodied. Flavor is lightly, lightly sour. Lots of red berry, some astringent wood notes, maybe even some really red cherry. This is so mildly sour it can be quaffed in quantity without a mouth wrench. It’s not really dry, and it’s far from bitter. It is incredibly delicious. It likely should go with Sacher Torte, but I’ll be pairing it with CostCo mac and cheese. Ah well. To be in Vienna at the Hotel Sacher. Ah well, lightning can strike twice. Ah well. Gee. This ale is making my brain go all nostalgic/weird. Damn, but it is good stuff. Get it!!!!!!!!

Tap at Fresh Craft. Dark brown with red tints and lace. Nose of cherry, vanilla, yogurt, a touch of vinegar. Rodenbach-like. Very malts flavor, caramel, chocolate, cherry, vanilla. Full and rich, very nice balance. Finish a touch rough. Big malt. Good stuff.

Sampled on draft at Tapped this beer poured a very dark brown color with faint red highlights and a medium sized foamy beige head that lingered and left good lacing. The aroma was soy sauce, vinegar and red wine. The flavor was toasty malts, soy sauce, red wine and was a bit sour with a boozy note. Medium length finish. Moderately full bodied and smooth. Decent.
