750ml (from Phill) @ Matt's new place. Appearance: hazy copper with a tan head. Aroma: some acetone, a weird chemical, a bit of cherries and dark bread. Taste: a bit thin, low to moderately acidic, some cherries. Very simple. Overall: meh. As the most of the Italian beers I've had.

Poured from 750mL bottle. Opaque copper brown with small off-white head. Fairly tart sour notes, but the oak cuts through it a bit softening it. Still verging on acetic. Decent.

750mL bottle, pours a deep dark mahogany with a small beige head. Aroma is complex, with lots of musty red grape skins, wild yeast, and subdued oak. Flavour is fairly tart and acidic, but in balance, with plenty of wild yeast, sour red grapes, and subdued oak. Very tart, a bit too much, but there's a good complexity to this and a thick palate that causes a long aftertaste. Good, even if a bit harsh.

Dullish colour. Sort of a pale brown colour. This is fairly acetic, deep fruity sourness. The wood is strong in the finish. I imagine it's the grapes lending some sweetness, but there's not actually that much sweetness. This is acidic. Not bad, but probably could stand to have more complexity.

A reddish copper ale with a thin lacing off white head. In aroma, sweet caramel malt with dark fruits, grapeskins, tart mix of ground cherry, light lactic and Epsom salts. In mouth, a nice sweet fruity malt with dark fruits, ground cherries, light alcohol, very nice.

Bottle: Poured a reddish color ale with a large foamy head with OK retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of nice grapes notes with some oak and sour cherry notes with some acidic notes also perceptible. Taste is a mix of sour cherry notes with nice grapes and oak notes with some vinous notes with quite a bit of acidity also noticeable. Body is about average with good carbonation. Nice presence of grapes but too much acidity at the end of the day.
