Bottle drunk at Diorama, 2/20/18.
Clear, light amber. Head immediately dissipates.
Nose is quite grapey/vinous with skin-like tannin, lots of black pepper from the fermentation. Pretty nice, if somewhat leaning to the overly sour/acidic side. Malts show just a touch of light sugar and then fade in to a cracker and biscuit sort of thing with no alcohol but a bit of sharp ester lingering with tons of fruit character. Kinda has a concord/lambrusco species of grape feel to it.
In the mouth it shows plentiful honey-like malt to offset the strong aceto-lacto acidity. Lots of cherry-vinegar with light biscuit and vanilla, gets rather sharp and/or boozy but then trails off in to a somewhat more mild finish. Interesting, for sure, if perhaps a bit too aggressive.
