Funky, sour and mineraly with loads of juicy peaches, nectarine, oak and hints of vanilla. Quite balanced and complex sour

Keg at Beavertown Extravaganza 2017 - London. Pours rich brownish red with a small, off-white head. Nice oaky character, tangy berries, some raspberry, old leather, mellow acidity. Medium to full bodied with fine to average carbonation. Tart finish, fairly clean. Solid.

Keg at Beavertown Extravaganza 2017 - London. Pours clear pink with a foamy, white topping. Good, pretty acidic. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Sharp acidity in the finish, some berry tartness, pleasant dryness, a little wood, low funk Sound overall.

Pours with a dull pale brown colour, a bit murky and not much head. On the nose, it's got a lot of deep vinegary depth, good cherry, and barrel notes. Goes deep on the barrel. The fruit balances well in the finish. --- Beer merged from original tick of Red Poppy Grand Cru on 03 Apr 2026 at 21:52 - Score: Appearance - 7 | Aroma - 7.5 | Flavor - 7.5 | Texture - 7 | Overall - 7.5. Original review text: I had this at a tasting - I specifically brought it back from The Church, so I wasn't the only one in Vancouver that had this. Apparently it didn't map correctly? I consulted the spreadsheet download and there were no notes. I have a star rating and remember it didn't blow my mind.

750mL bottle, pours a cloudy rusted reddish brown with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out plenty of tart cherries, light balsamic, and Worcestershire sauce. Flavour is quite tart, with very tart cherries, lots of Worcestershire, and, again, a touch of balsamic. Lots of Worcestershire here. Not all that complex and too acetic for me. Meh.
