Bottle, released 2021, rated 2024-apr-07 rich funky wild ale aroma with tons of wood and some sour malts, judging from aroma, this could be an extraordinarliy sour beer with a lot of vinegar like notes. the sourness in the aroma has a lot of sweeter notes to it.. it's an easy 8, could be a 9. balanced, powerful. flavor is wood, red wine, sour wheaty beer, thick palate, sourness is balanced by lots of wood and red grapes and even some faint dried dark fruits going on. Reminds me of good beligan dark sour beers. Well done. complex, interesting, kept well for 3 years.

Nice sour, complex and restrained, tart without turning your palate inside out. Bright berry and citrus notes lead to a modest vanilla-tinged sweetness, followed by a vinous finish with oak and lingering tartness in the fade. Tasty.
