30 January 2026. GBV Lucky Ass Tasting (@ Baracuna). Cheers to the whole crew!
Hazy dark red, small, foamy, pink head. Aroma of cherry pit, almond, vanilla, wood, barnyard, horse steak, blue cheese. Taste has very sour cherry, nectarine, funky barnyard & blue cheese in an almondy malt body, lactic acid flowing throughout. Tart cherry skin in the finish, providing drying woody tannins. Medium body, moussy texture, average carbonation. Intense, complex and elegant.
