Unlabeled 750 ml corked and caged bottle given to me by Ron. Pour is murky brown copper ruby with a one inch white reddish head. Head is thick and lasting, very sticky lacing lines the glass. Aroma of sour dark cherry, bright tartness, some residual alcohol. Nice bright nose. Very clean cherry smell. Taste is sour black cherry, oak woodiness, soft vinegar, really bright and alive sourness. Alcohol is pretty evident in the finish. Really nice. Palate is medium, slightly dry - woody finish. Quite drinkable and soft all around. Nice one, thanks for the bottle Ron.

Unlabeled 750mL cork&wire provided by thesti, thanks for another PNW sour treat Tim. As other have said this is a little bit of a gusher. So of course its a thick and foamy off white colored head. The lacing on it is very sticky. Cannot see through the completely thick dark brown color that has a bit of a ruby tint to it. Aroma is cherry but nothing acetic or nail polish, which are often the problem for Cascade. Some thick bark and wild cherry syrup, very authentic Flanders character. Taste is sweet cherry with a wild barrel aspect. Real authentic and not aggressive at all. Has a thicker mouthfeel with a bit of a slickness at the end of it.

Bottle. Ruby-brown beer with a nice light tan head. Cherry aroma with mustiness and tartness. Tart/sour flavor with cherry and earthy malt. Medium bodied. Tart/sourness lingers with a nice cherry note. Great beer with good sour/cherry balance and a little richness from the port barrels thrown in.
