Sampled from a 22 oz brown bottle this beer poured a black color with an enormous fluffy orange-tan head that lingered and left good lacing. The aroma was funky, chalky and bretty with Pez and dark fruits. The flavor was tart, dry, bitter and chalky with red wine, a bit of tart dark fruits and then more chalk. Very long finish. Medium body. Disappointing.

Bottle thanks to Marcelo. Pours a reddish brown color with a medium white head. A big funky malty sour fruit nose. The base sweetness is there, but this is a solid Flemish brown, fruity, very vinous. Awesome. Drinkable.

Somewhere between a 2 and 4oz bottle pour at SAVOR 2015’s Saturday night session. Poured a cloudy brown-black color with a small brown head. Aroma was notes of light funky cherries, vanilla, light berry, lots of funky notes. Flavor is cherries, dark fruits, dusty, light herbal notes. Tart finish. Okay.

Bottle from Brewery Creek, Vancouver
Brown color, medium sized head. Nice complex aroma, cellar, leather, chocolate, a bit funky, fruity. Dry and astringent mouthfeel; the flavor is composed by dark malts, dark fruits, and it has moderate sourness. A solid brew.
Very good.

22oz high shoulder bomber pours with a murky mahogany colored body that supports a thin tan head. The aroma offers up molasses mixed with sweet fruity esters and then quickly getting into a sort of woody soured cherry like fruitiness. The taste starts breifly smooth and slick and sweet with malts and molasses. It then plows straight into modest sour notes that seem to be brown sugar dusted sour cherries and sour green apples. This has some sourness but it doesn’t overwhelm or get abrasive.

22 oz. bottle, pours a deep dark mahogany with a small beige head. Nose brings out light sour red fruits, a little rye, and oak. Flavour is complex, with light whiskey and rye, lightly tart red fruits, and a touch of vinegar. Really well-balanced, oaky and lightly tart. Excellent.

Bomber from Capitol Beer in Sacramento, CA. Pours very dark ruddy brown with a tan head. Aroma is funk/sour citrus? Or dark fruits? Full bodied or nearly. Flavor is malty/funky and mildly sour with something herbal in a strong way. Certainly not a Flemish red, but it has some of those qualities. Pretty different flavor set, but it tastes good. Seems to develop red berry with time.
