This NW style sour blends soured tripel, blonde and golden ales that were then fermented with the juice of white wine grapes. It's a delicious offering that appeals to both beer and wine drinkers.

Bottle @ Drugie DNO, Warsaw May 2018. Unclear golden orange body with a small. Lacing white head. Delicate aroma of fruit and sour berries, grapes, mild wood and light funky. Flavor has a high complexity of fruit, berries, grapes, wood and mild funk/Brett. It’s kind of sweet and sour with not to much in any direction. Quite gentle actually, but very balanced and tasty. Just love it.

Lots of grape still on the nose. Tartness has mellowed, structured, balanced.

2015 bottle. Oaky, Brett, interesting. Bit dusty in a nice way. Taste is great. Vinous, bit of sourness, soft and fruity. Oak again. Can't taste the booze!

Corekd bottle from Hoppymeal, thanks! Orange color. Oak, vanilla and muscat grapes in the aroma. Sourish flavor with lots of oak, vanilla, ginger and grapes. Some rest sweetness from the grapes, not much. Hints of tangerine peels. Quite interesting and complex beer.

750 ml bottle, 2015 vintage, shared by Thomas, thanks! Orange, hazy body, with a tiny head. Aroma of cheesy funk, juicy grapes, stone fruits, some wood, slight vinegar. Tastes similar, almost a bit sweeter. Medium, slick mouthfeel, with an almost fizzy carbonation. Finishes medium sweet, a bit sour, wooden, a bit citric, with lots of grapes again, some stone fruits. Tasty. Drinks very fresh, with beautiful sweet grape notes throughout. Just enough funk and sourness, with quite a lot of carbonation. Very well drinkable for the ABV and very fruity for the age. Score: 8 / 4 / 8 / 4 / 16
