7/10
December 2019 - Looking forward to this. Bottle from lcbo. Pours cloudy coke brown with rouge tinge at the edges, no head to speak of. Raspberry nose, the mild socks and vinegar and sweetness. Taste is big sour wallop, with raspberry following up, but never overtaking the sour that lingers. It's hard to pick up much else. There is a lack of balance here, but I appreciate the effort. June 15 2020 - Bottle 2 bought the same time as the bottle above - that 6 months more in the bottle has helped mellowed this beer out. That aforementioned sour wallop has smoothed out. Seller this one folks.

Bottle shared by Blafa. Thanks! Pours lightly reddish orange with a small white head. Notes of rosehips, oaky sweetness, herbal notes, citrus, lemon, lightly candied sort of fruity notes. Weird but good! Quite mineralic and acidic finish.

750mL bottle, pours a deep dark mahogany with a small beige head. Aroma brings out lots of stewed apples, mulled spices, a little balsamic, and oak barrels. Flavour is loaded with stewed apples upfront, followed by balsamic, mulled red wine, spiced tea, and oak barrels. Loads of stewed apples, balsamic, oak, and woody notes. Complex and well-balanced. Surprisingly excellent.

Light brown, with a bit of haze, no head. A bit of oak on the nose, and some fruitiness. Light plum and pear notes, with cherries (almonds). Lots of lactic tartness, with a bit of wood. So a bit acetic. Actually this is quite good, with a blast of acetic wood notes.

Golden pour at The Apline. I want to crawl inside this glass. Mild honey sweet, dry fresh grapes, mildly sour bite, and not sure how, but the finish is buttery. Try it if you see it.
