2014 bottle. Pours blush into a tulip. Head quickly recedes to nothing. Apricot and plum aromas. Thick with tart apricot and plum front to back and into the dry, lactic berry finish. Pretty good for 10 years old...

750mL 2015 bottle drunk 8/13/23. Clear, golden-apricot. Small, off-white head quickly to ring. Nose is very tart, but full of rich fruit despite its 8 years in bottle. Lots of lactic, moderate acetic, low brett. Malts seem supportive with light honey, a hint of caramel and plentiful oak and vanilla. Big burst of sour lactic and acetic, but fortunately the lactic and the fruit acidity vastly outdoes any acetic character. The malts and oak make the beer, providing a a slick, soft, deep texture to soak up some of the big acidity. Palate accustoms nicely to the acid, however and by the end it's mostly malt, oak and fruit character.

Seriously tart cascade apricot, slightly vinous some raspberry.
