Black Angel is a black sour ale aged on 1.5 pounds per gallon of tart Montmorency cherries. Nearly 10 months of bourbon barrel-aging and artful blending reveal a dark, complex and enrapturing sour ale.

On tap at Wicked Weed Funkatorium, pours a deep dark brown / black with a small beige head. Aroma brings out lots of bourbon, with subdued cherries and gentle acidity. Flavour is along the same lines, with a really nice cohesion between bourbon and tart cherries. Oaky and only modestly acidic. Excellent.
