Bottle Julie brought back from San Antonio. Pours hazy ruddy brown with a transient tan smear. Rather tart cherry aroma. Rather! Med body, more or less. Mouth twitches at first contact. It is sour with some dark malt and fruit underlaying the cherries. It is and finishes tart/sour. Tho it mellows out with time. Good drink.

Location: 750 ml bottle from Central Market, 1/8/14, Batch # LB-007, 2/21/2012
Aroma: The nose is dark fruit and a little malty, with some toffee and some spice
Appearance: It pours a dark reddish color with a small beige sheet of head and streaky lace
Flavor: The taste is rather sweet, lots of toffee malts and fruity flavors coming through
Palate: The body leans full, fairly sticky on the mouth, with a smooth finish
Overall Impression: I actually found this one to be pretty interesting. It isn't as complex or well developed as some of the better examples of the style, and it is a little too sweet, but it is still a tasty beer.

This beer pours a cloudy orange color with a medium fizzy off-white head that dissipates steadily to a film. Short strings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of malt, caramel and fruit. Medium to full body with flavors of tropical fruits, caramel malt and oaky tannins. The finish is malty with lingering fruity esters in the aftertaste. Interesting beer overall that I initially thought was a strong Saison of some sort. Decent overall.

Waxed bottle from Bu11zeye. Pours hazy orange with a 3 finger creamy off-white or beige head. Aroma is amazing fruit and oak. Full bodied - possibly due to the strong carbonation. Not sparkling - just a lot. Flavor is toffee, light stone fruit, lots of oak/wood, and something like barnyard/leather. Like a light touch of brett. This was bottled 10-8-12. One can only imagine what it will be like in the future. Good stuff indeed.

Bottle from Rosebud Butternuts. Pours copper with a foamy beige head. Aroma of tripel fruit esters with oak and a hint of rye. Med body or better. Pineapple, light stone fruit, oak, mild rye, and the flavors sort of rotate. Really firm flavors. So woody it approaches sour. Quite tasty.

Tasting at Bruce’s pad. Thanks to Bruce. Lightly hazy dark brown beer. Smal cream coloured head. Light palate, slightly crisp. Light caramel and sourness. Touch of coca cola fruitiness. Whisper of brett and mild lactose sweetness. Tasty.
