Bottle @ Armin’s apartment, courtesy of a real fucken chill dude. Pours a sort of murky, deep orangish brown appearance with little head. Super spicy (cinnamon/nutmeg), thick plum/dark grape, acetic, quite oaky aroma. Kind of like an Oud Bruin. Fair amount of vinegar tones, lot of oak and tannins, lot of dark fruit. Black cherry, plum, red grape. Carbonation is a bit dull. Nice, twangy aftertaste. Fun to drink.

$13.00 for a 375 ml bottle. Shared at the RBNG. Murky brown color. Aroma of herbal funk, tart berries, dirty earthy malt and oak.
Yeasty, oaky, hints of brett with a good about of fruity sweetness. Lingering oak and tannic grapes. Really nice complex flavors. I guess you could cellar it, but after 10 months in barrels it tastes pretty good right now. Another fine brew from the former brewer, Cheers Dave!

Bottle from Bert’s Pours a slightly hazy deep reddish brown color with a smallish bubbly white head that dissipates almost instantly. Aromas of lemon and tart cherry with a bit of earth, herbal, and funky notes to it. The barrel is subtle, providing hints of vanilla and wood to mix. The flavor is a little sweeter than the aroma suggested with a moderate brown sugary flavor to it. Sweet and Sour cherry with just a hint of lemon mix with a mild earthy funk to round out the flavor. Medium body with a light level of carbonation and a sweet tart mouthfeel to it. Nice flavorful brew, but it needs a bit more time to develop a few more bubbles imho.
