Sampled from the tap at Happy Gnome. Pours a clear reddish amber with a tan head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a nice tart plum note with rye and earthy oak supporting. Flavor has tart plum that grows in sournessxwith some earthy oak and a hint of rye backing.

Tap at Cascade Barrel House, PDX, 22/05/13. 2011 vintage. Murky reddish brown with a thin beige head. Nose is berry fruits, woody notes, light sugars, touch of piss, must, light funk. Taste comprises sour plums, sugars, light balsams, hint of plastic, touch of soap, damp wood. Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation. Ok sour, lower down the Cascade pecking order for me.

Tap at the Barrel House - live from the barrel - pours still - cloudy purple - nose of oak, plum, leather and spices - slick, almost oily in the mouth - a bit of buttery diacetyl and vegetal character up front - this is followed by some spicy character, toffee - then the sourness kicks in - cherry skin, oak, spice - the approach is flawed, but the finish is nice - tastes like they made a Scottish ale they weren’t happy with, so they soured it - meh.
