The aroma was great with hints of citrus, blackberry, and sour cherries galore. The beer poured a hazy orange color with just a slight head and good lacing. The flavor was an immediate sour cherry, almost overwhelmingly so. I got a faint hint of the blackberry, wood and spice. My major problem with this beer is that it had no body to it at all. It had the mouthfeel of sherbet mixed with 7up. I like effervescence in my beer, but this tasted like sour punch without the sugar. There's a nice alcohol finish to it and it's pretty well rounded on the finish...I just really wanted more body to it.

Huge thanks to enelson for hooking me up with this one awhile back.

Vintage 2010.

Poured this one into a tulip glass. Pours a rusty-color, with a thick bubbly head that fizzles away audibly. Light pinkish hue to the cap. Nose is tart and funky. Some citrus, dankness, vinegar. The nose held up well.

Easy feel. Plenty of carbonation, but nothing astringent. Crisp and refreshing. The flavor profile on this one keeps me gulping. Tart blackberry, lemon, lactic character, oaky dryness. Fruity finish from the barreling for sure. This beer disappeared quickly. Loved it. Thanks again, Ed!
