A dark hazed reddish brown beer with no head. In aroma, a sweet perfumey flower, lactic points, sour cherries, classic and superb. In mouth, a sour caramelly malt, lightly buttery, a bit off and cloying, but interesting. Cask. On tap at Brewvival, Feb. 26 2011.

cask @ Datz, St. Somewhere night. I have to congratulate Bob on getting me buzzed again on yet another incredible brew. Pours cloudy orange, and for a cask it packed some a rather thick lasting white-pinkish head. Excellent head retention. Aroma, nice palmetto berry and Belgian yeast nose. The sweet sugary concoction of the Lectio pulls through adding a nice dimension to the beer. There is a lot going there, mix of champagne yeast with wood barrel aged and aroma of light tartness.As the beer warms up, the hibiscus seemed to come more pronounced. Flavors, wood/oak goodness though not overly present, floral notes followed by the dry hopping hibiscus adding a lot of floral flavors to the palate. This is all meshed with sweet dark sugar, champagne yeast mouthfeel and oak, lingering berry sourness that doesn’t overpower the experience. Complex and interesting, finish keeps a mild spicy touch, mix of floral, barrel, mild sourness. Perfect carbonation for a cask. This one ranks on top of my St Somewhere beers, showing that aging these beers only improve the overall experience.
