Draught at the brewery
Dark ruby color, darker than the Surrounded by Idiots, opaque. Good body, lighter than the Surrounded by Idiots, strong berry character, but this one too has a lot of cheese character in it, yogurt, and milder acetic. Clumsy.

Draft - Soured boysenberries. Deep solid maroon. Tart boysenberry and a nice bit of acidity. Dry finish and very nice.

On tap at the brewery with Alex. Pours a red kompot color with a rose head. Aroma is berries (boysen ones? :-) ) and bready notes. Taste is very fruity and barrel first with acetone notes on the background. Low to moderate sweet, moderately sour. Quite aggressive acidity in here. I would prefer no polish nailer notes, of course, but it is quite good, though.
