2007 bottle. Lots of fun getting the cork extracted. So, over 15 years, this had, of course, settled. Light cherry nose in the bottle. Pours reddish-brown to black, just a very thin room of foam with bits of cork at the edge. The taste is a nice light cherry tart. If they managed a spontaneous fermentation, I'd say that shows as a kind of lactic acid sour. Nothing of about it. I'm glad it turned out so nicely after I've cleared it way longer than I should have. Some dregs at the bottom of the bottle, to be expected, maybe both yeast particles and cherry skin.

375 ml bottle shared by beastiefan2k. 2007 Vintage. Pour is a hazed brown copper with a tan head that falls off fast. Minor lacing that also wipes away quick. Aroma is wood and balsamic vinegar, dark cherry sour, and a general mustiness. Interesting and developed nose, though everything just sort of jumbles together. Taste is black cherry up front, followed by tannic wood behind it, leading to dry finish which is very woody in the back. Palate is medium bodied, with a high level of carbonation. The taste came together for me more than the nose, but still seemed to lack "polish". Even still, unique and fun beer - thanks Eugene.

Bottled - tasted blind. A murky chestnut colored beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of dust as well as medium notes of caramel and brettanomyces. The flavor is of brettanomyces, caramel, and dusty hops as well as lighter notes of wood and vanilla, leading to a tart finish. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

From bottle, blindtasting #3. Pours hazy dark brown with yeast floaties and a diminished off-white head. Mild acidic and roasted malty aroma. Flavour is mild fruity, solid yeasty and with a distinct dry sourness swept through. Dry acetone and roasted malty finish. Lasting fruity finish.

Leichter Kirschgeruch, etwas muffig. Wenig säuerlicher Antrunk, etwas malzig, im Mittelteil herber. Malziger und leicht bitterer Abgang, eher langweilig. Ein Kriek soll das Ganze darstellen. Misslungen. Test vom 12.8.2008, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: -,8,8,9,7,8 - 8,11
