Description
Yet another game-changer in the history of Mikkeller, the opening of Baghaven marked the moment when – finally – spontaneously fermented sour beer was made using local terroir. Importing skilled American brewer Ehren Schmidt to head up operations at Baghaven helped establish the foundation for a location that would fuse tradition with cutting-edge innovation.

From tap at Mikkeller at Morebeer, Amsterdam. Lovely tart cherry aroma with barnyard funk, oak, blackcurrant, additional dark and red berries. Tart and medium sour. Body is medium. Brilliant cherry aroma with funk and a good tartness, quite up my alley.

Bottle: Poured a deep purple-ish color ale with a small foamy head with limited retention and some minor lacing notes. Aroma of funny ester with some tart notes and vinous grape notes clearly identifiable. Taste is a mix of tatt notes with some funky ester with some nice grape notes and a dry vinous finish. Nice mix of grapes/wine and funky yeast in this beer.
