Bottle, 75cl corked. It pours an almost clear one, reddish dark amber to light brown in color and with a minimal sized head. The aroma is quite berryish, with some lemon notes. Lacking big time on complexity, but there’s some funky notes. It’s quite dry and tart, with a nice co2 level. Medium body. Berries, some oak and lemon and a funky touch in the flavor, lasting for a good while. A decent one, but rather boring. 140830

GABF 2012. Pours with a hazy deep brown hued body with a lasting tan head. Aromas are floral, juicy, berry, acidity, mild funk, red wine, vinous, big raspberry, tannic. Flavors are a little thin, but very full of berries, tannin, vinous and jammy. Nice sourness, lively feeling with a nice dryness.

THE Fruit Sour tasting. Thanks Jack for this rarity. Cloudy purple red beer, tiny pink head. Blackberry jam nose. Palate is crisp and dry. Sour white wine, blackberry. A little lemon. Dry finish. It’s fine - not too aggressive.

Bottle at The Fruit Sour Tasting, London - huge thanks to Jack for procuring this one. Pours rich ruby with a very fine, white film of a head. Lovely, fresh raspberry aroma. Light sweet flavor with clean and fresh raspberry, lots of dryness, and a well and sour character. Light bodied with average, massaging carbonation. Dry finish with plenty of tart raspberry, light salt, light acidity, a bit of lip-quiver. Great.

Thanks Adam for sending me this. Enjoyed on my GF’s birthday on a day of many whalez. White wine glass and served at 55 Degrees F.
A - Cork pop was minimal, absolutely still on the pour with a tiny and almost unnoticeable line of white bubbles around the edge of the glass. Looks like fresh squeezed blackberry juice.
S - Nose is a minor band-aid aroma with rodenbach flanders red nose. Just a hint of cider vinegar and cherries. Blackberry and blueberry but maybe I’m just smelling things that aren’t there. The last two are probably just in my head.
T - Lacto tartness in the middle, up front is cherries and raspberries with a hint of watermelon. Very "juicy" and sweet. The finish is an acidic vinegar note that contains the glorious grape skins and earthiness you’d get while swishing around a Pinot Grigio. Fruity, tart, sour, vinegar, funky and sweet.
M - Light body and almost no carbonation. Flat, dry and almost an apple cider texture of slick, dry and coyingly sweet. Wish it had a bit more carbonation
O - How does it fair against other wilds? There’s no dominant vinegar that overpowers everything which, for an American Wild is a nice surprise. The fruit balance is exquisite and it was blended in a pleasant way. Not in line with the hype but still an enjoyable wild.
