Pours a dark purple-red, nearly black from a bottle. Big sour cherry aroma, vinegary right off the bat. Even the oak comes out in the nose. Very tart cherry juice flavor, somewhat reminiscent of a wine vinegar. Feel like the tartness could be dialed down just a bit. Pretty good beer.

Celebrating Running the 2015 USMC Marathon and Beer #5200! Great amber and ruby tinted colour with a very fast-dying tan head, just like soda. Aroma of alcohol, oak, grain, sour brett, sour grapes and of course - cherries, cherries and more cherries. Medium-bodied; Assertive sour cherry flavour at first with a great mouth-watering sour quality followed by some nice malt, sustained sweetness from the fruit and a light oaky and dry finish at the end. Aftertaste shows a bunch of sour qualities, some funk from brett and the spontaneous fermentation and a lot of cherry sweetness that goes very well with just about everything. Overall, a great beer - definitely worth trying if you can find this, and definitely worth keeping for a while - I’ll try to get my hands on several of these, just to age them; A truly wonderful beer, especially for people who like the style, including myself! I sampled this 75 cL bottle purchased from Arrowine in Arlington, Virginia on 02-June-2014 for US$19,99 sampled at home in Washington on 29-October-2015.

Bottle. Pours clear reddish amber with no real head and no lacing. Aroma is very cherry, some oak and tobacco notes. Flavor is light tart, a bit of residual sweetness, cherries are dominant with some oak. Medium body, flat - no real carbonation left. A bit watery in the mouth.

Refrigerated 75 cl brown 2013 bottle corked and capped poured into a glass. Clear red with small off-white head. Aroma is nice strong sour, medium body, low/medium carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is sour, tart cherries, lemons, some oak, and long acidic finish. Complex, pretty easy to drink (although I understand this would be too sour for some), really flavorful, really enjoy this one.

Tasting at Bruce’s pad. Thanks to Bruce for this one. Hazy red - amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light and crispy. Nice level of sourness, ie not too much. Zippy cherry and a touch of lemon. Finishes dry refreshing.

Bottle split at Bruce’s pad, thanks to our host with the most, 12/06/14. Hazed chestnut brown with reddish hues topped with a moderately sized light beige swirl. Nose is tarte cherries, fruit balsams, light acidic waftings, straw, dank berry woodness. Taste comprises tarte cherry skins, berry fruit balsamics, mild acidity, straw, wooden rinse. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close. Nice sour, good balance.

Bottle shared in London - thanks to Bruce. Pours murky purple with a frothy, off-white head. Good, earthy cherry nose, light funk, grape skin. Light to medium sweet flavor with crisp, zippy sour berries, cherry, light acidic, slight metal. Light bodied with spritzy carbonation. Clean finish with background jammy sweetness, nice ripe, tart cherries, a bit of tongue-blister sour bite, slight alcohol warmth. Well rounded, very nice.

Bottle thanks to Bruce. It pours hazy deep red with minimal head. The nose is tangy, sweet cherry, jammy fruits, wood and a touch of barnyard. The taste is crisp, tart, ripe cherry, cherry pie, lemon sherbet, wood, tangy, jammy, very mild acidity with a dry, lightly tart finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Not overly sour or acidic. A very approachable and drinkable sour.

Bottle @ home, via trade. Carbonation is pretty dull based on the cork popping. Pours a deep orange appearance with light head. Aroma is full of delicious tart pie cherries with a touch of vinegar and some wood. Definitely some caramel and brown sugar along with a really delicious pie cherry filling flavor. Carbonation is almost nonexistant. Really unfortunate on the carbonation but the beer is otherwise quite enjoyable.
