75CL Bottle acquired in a trade. Bottled 7/22/2013 and it’s bottle 120 of 353. I think I gave up a 37.5CL Blabaer for this bottle shortly after release. Split 3 ways at fridge temp. Bottle stored upright for many months.

A - Gorgeous color. Pink reddish color a 1 finger head that fades to a think ring. It looks absolutely gorgeous.

S - it smells pretty darn good. Distinct Saint Lamvinus aroma. Grapes, cheese, funk, a hint of metallic with wine barrel. Really smells amazing.

T - Taste is juicy, sweet, a ton of wine barrel. Really juicy like straight up grape must, raspberry juice and apples. Chalky and covers the teeth with sour candies but the barrel notes and berry is awesome. There’s a bit of copper penny and mold flavor

M - This is far more dense than traditional lambic and the beer doesn’t have a blended taste to it and carbonation is very light.

O - So final thoughts? Well, I drink a lot o fruit lambic and this is a dense, overly acidic acid bomb with out the refinements of a Kriek, Merlot, Framboise lambic. . However, for an american sour, it’s really really really great.

750 ml bottle. Number 120/353. Bottled 7/22/2013. A nice clear pink color with an off white head that stayed the whole snifter. Aroma is cherry sins, mild oak, funky yeast.

The sour is pretty long lasting, lightly acidic and just slightly metallic. But really, really nice.

Sampled on draft at Hou Thou this beer poured a red-caramel color with a small foamy white head that left minimal lacing. The aroma was tart and sour with a vague fruity note. The flavor was tart and sour with vinegar, a strong fruity presence but not specifically identifiable as cherry and a note of Pez. Very long finish that turns a bit medicinal. Moderately full bodied. Ok.

Bottle. Clear pale reddish pour with a white head. Big time blueberry nose. Plenty of blueberry still left in this one. Tasty caramel malt and oak backbeats. Good body and mouthfeel.

Bottle with thanks to Travlr! Pours cloudy orange apricot nectar, small beige head, good lacing. Aroma is huge apricot, lots of skins, funk, barnyard, lactic, almost milky. Flavor is light plus tart, light funk, oaky, apricots and other stonefruit all over the place. A tiny hint of acetone perhaps lends a bit of harshness to an otherwise excellent beer. Medium body
