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.

750ml pours a clear garnet amber. Nose has the grapes and some barrel and some funk, band aid, cherry, pomegranate. Flavors same. Tart and funky finish with just the right amount of booze.
