Classic for the style. Nice balance. Good use of raspberries. No off-flavours. Superbly clean and drinkable. Ebenezer's parking lot share.

Bottle shared at my pre-wedding bash with some other RB nerds. Pours a hazy, purplish appearance with a light brown head. The aroma is similar to Oak Theory with some lemon, lactic acid, funk, cheese, and oak. Along with that, there’s plenty of berries that aren’t overly powerful. The flavor again has Oak Theory forefront with complementary berries. Slight tannins / slightly seedy. Not burningly sour. Plenty of oak. Really enjoyable. Again, the fruit doesn’t completely dominate the flavor which is a breath of fresh air. One of the better fruit beers I’ve had in a while. I preferred this one to the Balaton Cherry Cut slightly but both were fantastic. Very good.

Bottle shared at my pre-wedding bash with some other RB nerds. Pours a hazy pink appearance with a pinkish / cream colored head. The aroma is full of spicy, herbal cherries that is reminiscent of cherry crisp. There’s an interplay between cinnamon-like spiciness and pie cherries. The cool thing about this is that base beer, Oak Theory, shines through brightly with all the cobweb / basement funk / cheesy notes readily apparent and not dominated by the cherries. The cherries are complementary not overpowering. Moderately sour. Delicious and a treat.

Bottle shared at my pre-wedding bash with some other RB nerds. Pours a hazy yellow-orange appearance with a thin, off white head. Some acid, peaches / apricots, vanilla, and funk in the nose. Pretty acidic in the mouth. Some cheesy notes to go with the fruit, cobwebs, hay flavor. Not my favorite fruit stand but it was enjoyable to drink.

Bottle thanks to Rainer. Pours a hazy yellow gold with small white head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is pineapple, oak, lacto. Thin mouth, so juicy, pineapple, light oak, nice tartness, really enjoyed this one.

Late 2014 750mL bottle from Forgetfu, an incredibly generous extra....shared with Adam and Chris on 7/26/15.
Minimally hazy, soft peachy-golden with some deeper tangerine hues and an initially full white head that slowly recedes to cover.
Holy peach aroma! THAT is exquisite....just the most beautiful, full peach juice, not too sweet, mixed with tart brett and a bit of oakiness/wood. As well, this stuff is about 8-9 months old, so it’s even more impressive given that the fruit character fades rather steadily. Close to a 10 in aroma for me, but maybe just a bit more beer character would do it for me. As is, it’s about a 9.5.
And the flavor...is just a massive, massive letdown. Sigh. Watery, vague, loose carbonation does nothing to counteract the massively thin, undermalted body. I’m no fan of big, malty, full-textured beers but this needs ALOT more body. As well, the slight lack of beer-character compared to the fruit character in the nose can be well-explained by its big lack here in the flavor. No flaws, at least, with clean, peachy flavors and light lactic and oak notes. Very near to a light peach kombucha.....
