Ensorcelled is a blend of our oak-aged red sour beer (Scott Tenorman) and oak-aged black Brettanomyces beer. After blending our red and black sours together, we added raspberries and let the beer age in barrels for a few more months.

RB#17 Ensorcelled, Dark Sour Beer Aged in Oak Barrels with Raspberries Barcode scan pointed here. This bottle is 7.0% I am not sure this rating is in the right place. pours dark, very light brown head. aroma of fresh raspberries, sour malts, faint roasted malty note. aroma appears very full for a sour. flavor is sour beer, tart raspberries, faint chocolate. flavor is mostly tart and sour with hints of raspberries and hints of chocolate. Quite well balanced and with a good deal more body than many other sours. The 7% is well hidden.

Thanks Walt for sharing the bottle! Taster showing amber brown with latte colored foam. The nose shows pronounced tart notes of raspberry and light brett. The palate is well carbonated and medium bodied. Moderately tart with forward notes of raspberry with light oak and brett.
