Pours clear red with an off-white head. Aroma is tart with notes of malt, cherry, red berries, oak and funk. Taste is light to medium sweet and medium bitter with a long tart, funk, cherry and oak finish. Body is full, texture is oily, carbonation is soft.

Bottle from Beer Merchants, shared with my bro. It pours hazy deep reddish - brown with a medium fluffy beige head. The aroma is bright and zingy, tart and tangy, sweet - sour character, vanilla, dull bourbon, ripe cherry, bramble jam, blackcurrant, plum jam, damp wood and some cherry tangfastics. The taste is crisp, dry, puckering, nip of acidity, plenty of sourness, crunchy cherry, bramble, blackcurrant, sour candy, sherbet, tangfastics, vinous, splash of natural red wine, damp oak, touch of bourbon, strawberries with a drizzle of balsamico, toasted oak, hint of cacao and dull alcohol heat with a drying, puckering, vaguely tannic finish. Medium body and soft, yet lifting carbonation. Well put together. Quaffable.

Publick House draught, 8/2/22. Clear, cran-raspberry-cherry red with a small, pink-yellow-tinged head showing low retention. Nose is bright cherry with not too much specialty malt, nor acetic acid, and barely any barrel character. Lots of base malt, brett, fruit, spice and ester with no alcohol or flaw. Soft and malty in the mouth, well-attenuated with tons of fruity, spicy cherry and big Brett notes. Honey-like malts, soft barrel tannin, juicy fruit and light funk with soft barrel tannin. Bright, clean and flavorful.

Pours a nice hazy brown from a bottle. Big lacto aroma, some cherry notes as well. Similar flavor, quite tart, some fruitiness, acidic. Good beer.

Pours ruby-tinged mahogany into a tulip. Off-white head with good retention recedes to pool surface. Tart cherry and blackberry aromas. Sharp with tart cherry upfront turning to sour blackberry and marshmallow funk in the lasting finish.

12.7 oz corked and caged. Aroma has notes of cherry, almondy cherry pits, wood, funk. Pours slightly hazy amber with a one finger beige head that falls into a ring pretty quickly. Taste is moderately sour (7/10) with cherry and oaky flavors.
