Aroma is moderately acidic with some nice complexity and a bit of acetic character. Moderate oak notes. Quite a bit of fruit character - cherries and berries. Pours a slightly cloudy amber with some light brown hues. Small thin tan head that recedes fairly quickly. Medium leaving and small legs. Flavor has a medium light acidity with a medium oak character. Lots of fruit notes, especially cherries but also berries and cassis. Light sweetness with some light caramel and toffee with faint chocolate. Light alcohol spice and faint acetic. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium low carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall a really nice sour with a lot of fruit character. Complimentary oak notes really add some nice complexity. Very impressively clean sour.

750ml bottle pours a hazy, caramel amber with some spitty, off white head. Nose has a lot of sweat sock, some BO, rhubarb, vinegar, malt, paint thinner. Flavor is much better, acetic, red grape, some vinegar, a little fruit, strawberry. Finishes very acetic. The nose is a train wreck, but the flavor is better.

Bottle, 75cl corked, at TFODRBSG 2012. A clear one, dark amber in color and topped by a small, light beige head. Berries, vinegar and some caramel maltyness in the aroma. Lightly vinegarish flavor with some berries and caramel. A touch of wood too. Full to medium body, tart and a bit heavy on carbonation. Lasting sourish finish with caramel hints. A rather nice one, but far from world class. 120818
