375ml bottle @ Chez Sophie. Pours a generally clear deep red, small white head. Aroma presents sour lactic cherries. Taste is extremely sharp with prominent cherries and a bright acidity, red wine tannin is fairly low in the mix, very subtle and barely noticeable vanilla and cacao. Excellent sharp acidic cherry sour, reminiscent of a beefed up Alexander.

Head reduced to white rim; faintly hazy deep-red beer. End of bottle solid yeast. Laurel, red fruit, red berries, lactic acid. Sour red fruit, hint at chocolate or mole. Quite sour, lactic acid. In the finish, there's fruity character a gogo, vanilla and tonkabean-like sweetness, if soft. Acidthinning, medium carbonation, fruitslick. Very good fruitsour.

Fajnie owocowe, beczka taka taniczna ciut, cierpkawe. Aromaty nieco miodowe, nieco slodkie landrynki... smiszne, fajne polaczenie, 3.9
