Tap at Cannibal. Crazy brew so much tastes to decipher. Pours orange with brownish tinge. Nose is smoke and wine residue. At first you get that Schlenkerla bacon campfire smoke but then its lots of jammy zinfadel really coming through and soften the harshness of original brew. There is also some other red fruits, hops bitterness and hay. But mostly your bowled over by Zin and Ham in a delicious way

Small creamy shortlasting head. Aroma is slightly sour, vinegar, paint, grass, alcohol, sour berries, sorrel, oak, caramel, dark sugar. Taste is slightly sour-ish sweet, sorrel, sour red berries, vinegar, paint, caramel, oak, grass, dark sugar. Slightly dry mouthfeel. Holy shit, this is actually even better than most Belgian sours! Even my wife loved this one, and she hates sours.
