Dark Red Amber Color, Huge Foamy Head, Lots Of Thick Soapy Lacing. Aroma of Spice, Cooked Vegetables, Hops. Sweet Malt, Cooked Vegetables, Spices, Hops.Somewhat Reminds Me of Pumpkin Beers. Hides High ABV Real Well. Very fitting to have it on a last day of inter although we have a long way to go this year, No spring in Sight Yet... While this brew was just OK on First Sips, It Grew on me. It may not be my favorite ,It grew on me and I did enjoy it. I dig it. Worth A Try.

Bottle: (2013) Nearly clear yellow-gold with a white head. Grain, salt, fruit aroma. Flavour is nicely salted citrus...almost a red apple-peel note to it. A little yeastiness, lemon. Really good.

Celebrating Running the 2015 USMC Marathon and Beer #5200! Great amber and ruby tinted colour with a very fast-dying tan head, just like soda. Aroma of alcohol, oak, grain, sour brett, sour grapes and of course - cherries, cherries and more cherries. Medium-bodied; Assertive sour cherry flavour at first with a great mouth-watering sour quality followed by some nice malt, sustained sweetness from the fruit and a light oaky and dry finish at the end. Aftertaste shows a bunch of sour qualities, some funk from brett and the spontaneous fermentation and a lot of cherry sweetness that goes very well with just about everything. Overall, a great beer - definitely worth trying if you can find this, and definitely worth keeping for a while - I’ll try to get my hands on several of these, just to age them; A truly wonderful beer, especially for people who like the style, including myself! I sampled this 75 cL bottle purchased from Arrowine in Arlington, Virginia on 02-June-2014 for US$19,99 sampled at home in Washington on 29-October-2015. Bottle Date: 2013 Vintage // Purchased: 02-June-2014 // Sampled: 29-October-2015

2015 bottle (new labels, not like the label pictured here) drunk 10/23/15 and on Cask at NERAX, Summer 2013.
Still haven’t got around to entering my ratings from NERAX 2.5 years ago...sigh. So it’s good that I finally had this one (bottle at Deep Ellum, $17, bottle at liquor store down the street, $25. Makes you wonder....). Light haziness to the blonde liquid, leaving the sediment in the bottle. Big white head but it collapses pretty quickly to a covering, though is retained well there.
Loved in on cask, loved it in the bottle. Very juicy, peachy nose is nonetheless well-fermented/macerated and the peach combines well with the yeast/bacteria acids which are in turned laced with a light honey-vanilla character. Some floral notes, very low on the wood and mostly just a bright fruited sour that leans a lot more to the fruited American weisse end of the spectrum than the heavily barreled, intensely sour wild ale end. No alcohol, no flaws.
In the mouth it’s tightly carbonated, juicy, acidic but yet balanced with maltiness. Peach flavor is authentic, nicely integrated and oak barrel character shows restraint of tannin and even a touch of wine-like character (this is not wine barrel aged, to my knowledge, to clarify). Love the alcohol here and indeed the resulting high drinkability. Sure, it’ dosent have the most profound of complexities, nor are you going to confuse this for Fou Foune, but I think people are unfairly expecting a lot more out of this. A simple peach golden ale aged in oak, left at low gravity to be both bright, refreshing and drinkable. Love it.

Bottle. Floral lemon malt, light salt, and musty yeast aroma. Golden yellow with large white head. Fairly strong salt flavor up front followed by lemon malt and very dry hay flavor. Floral aftertaste. Good body. A very dry beer.

Bottle: Clear gold with a small white head. Grainy, lemon aroma. Taste is slightly bready, grassy, a bit of lemon peel....straw. Not great.
