Can. A- Cherry, tart, slightly sweet. A- Red color, hazy liquid, no head. T- Cherry, tart, mild funk, oak, subtle vanilla. P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- Really tasty stuff. Almost like a not too sweet and natural tasting cherry pie filling. The cherry is the star here and I did detect some lingering vanilla. Really not wild by any shot although there is just enough funk to remind you it's Almanac but it's almost an afterthought. Enjoyable.

16 oz can from Pilgrim's in CDA, ID. Aroma is cherry, cherry pits, wood, Pours ruby red with a dissipating pinkish-white head that falls into a ring quickly. Taste is light to moderately sour (5/10) with lots of cherry fruit character. The fruit character is real and fresh. This is the first Almanac sour I've had that didn't try to melt my face off with it's acidity and just general sense of Warhead-level sourness. I'm not sure if that's good or bad. I like a good restrained sour as much as anyone, but when I buy an Almanac sour, I expect a mouth puckering experience like no other. This is good, though, just unexpected.
