look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

Batch #2 from Feb 2008, 22oz. bottle poured into a tulip.

A: Cloudy, reddish brown with a minimal head.

S: Very sour smelling, lactic, some citrus fruit rind, a funkiness that is hard to describe.

T: Citrus, raisins, caramel, candy sugar. Very complex and flavorful Belgian-style ale.

M&D: Leaves your mouth feeling tingly. Medium body. Nice crisp beer. Easy drinking as well, it does not taste all that strong.

This beer is not all that strong, or dark, but nonetheless it is a worthwhile effort. Unfortunately having never tried a Russian River beer, I cannot say whether or how well it takes on the characteristics of their beers.

Serving type: bottle
