750mL shared by Bill, the geekest beer geek in KC. I got the bottom of the bottle. Aroma is lots of acetic and acidic berry fruitiness but not over the top. The flavor is thinner that I would like but not too thin. The thinness that usually comes from bad acetic beer. A little low on the carbonation. The beer is tart-sour, acetic mainly but not too much. I like the berries that come out of the flavor. A little thin and just a bit of a novice sour beer. I like it but it needs to be better.
Bottled, thanks baggio! Hazy nut brown, lively head. Tart vinegary nose. Dry, vinous and oaky. Medium bodied with rounded spritzy mouthfeel, juicy and lemony with plenty of vinegar. Quite intense.
Wash. DC tasting. cloudy amber, light off-white head. woot woot, this is some crazy barrel aging goodness, light vinegary, sour grapes? barrel pretty much covers the palate leaving a mild tingly coating that blends gorgeously with the tartness of dark fruits and berries.
750 ml bottle at DC local tasting. Barrel FO/BB, bottled 2/10. Very nice sour cherry aroma with vanilla, oak and other stuff, but I can’t read my handwriting. Taste of summer fruits and citrus, a bit unexpected. Nice character and complexity.
Bottle at PilsnerPeter’s RBSG 2010. Pours a cloudy reddish brown. Nose is strong fruits, some oak and apple. Taste is tart, fruits, light oak and leather.
