Sample from the bottle at Malt&Mold, New York. Color is slightly cloudy light copper with small white head. Aromas and flavors: Berries, sweetness, raspberries, some wood and some sourness.
on tap at independent ale house in south dakota. absolute jammy big tart. really to love.
This poured a reddish brown color with a beige head. The aroma contains raspberries, oak, and vinegar. The flavor is quite sour with some raspberries, cherries, and vinegar. This is quality stuff. Price wise its much cheaper than many US made sours. It hits all the bases sour, funky, and slightly sweet. Spot on stuff. A good pre birthday beer!
Bottle shared by F+M, many thanks! Pours clear burgundy with almost no head. Tart raspberries dominating flavor and aroma altogether, slight balsamic touch, light vanilla. Lightly vinous and oaky. Nice!
Sampled on draft at Tapped this beer poured a murky brown color with a large foamy tan head that left minimal lacing. The aroma was tart and sour with vinegar, soy sauce, vague berries and chalk. The flavor was very tart and sour with chalk, vague berries and vinegar. Amazingly long finish. Medium body.
Flaska från SB. Mörkbrun med brunbeiget tätt skum. Doft av rödvinsvinäger, kolaremmar och syrliga hallonkärnor. Ganska lätt kropp, nästan slät. Torr och sträv. Smaken som doften. Hallonen ligger ganska långt bak, men finns där. Tack Samuel214.
(22 ounce bottle - wine glass) Translucent brownish red color. No head. Sour
raspberry with maybe lime notes. dry finish. Did not notice oak vanilla notes.
22oz bottle. Almost two years out from bottling. Jammy raspberry aroma that doesn't really translate to the taste. Deep burgundy brown body. Thin off-white head. Holds up quite well. Really good beer, more along the lines of Rodenbach or a Flemish sour than a straightforward Fruit beer. The ageing has brought out some deeper oaky sour vinegar notes. A really good beer.
Bottle. Thanks to Thomas A. Pours Hazy deep reddish with a Off White head. Jammy raspberries, little funk and wet wood. Tart and sour Woody flavor with the raspberries lingering. Dry finish.
Backlog. Sample from bomber. Tart sour with round soft berries and oak mixing well.
Tap at rattle n hum east, new york. Dark red color, some pink head. Aroma has tart berry notes, raspberries, some farm notes. Medium sour taste, berries, hint of stables. Pretty balanced sour, could be more tart for my taste.
bottled 2015 6.5% ABV. Poured a dark red with a thick off-white head. Aroma of a sour raspberry and the flavor followed the nose. overall a really good sour easy to drink and I would definitely get again
Pours deep burgundy with flat white head. Aroma of raspberries, light almond icing, maybe hints if other berries, thought it was a bit meh. Taste is mellow tart with a berry sweet finish. Light and crisp body with average carbonation.
650ml bottle [5.6% abv]. Cloudy, deep ruby colour with small to average, frothy, diminishing, off-white head. Full-blown raspberry aroma with earthy, fruity, and tart aspects, a vinous touch. Taste is tart, fruity with astringent effect, notes of raspberry to the full extent, a woody touch; very fine carbonation.
Pours a brown body with a thin head. Fruity nose with a sour touch. Taste is nice raspberry with a subtle sour end. Nice fizzy carbonation.
Bottle from bolaget. Beer follows it's name, really intense sour raspberry, slight lactic, oak notes, yeast and light citrus. Tart sour aftertaste
Bottled 650ml (Systembolaget)
Deep red colour, small off-white head. Raspberries and vanilla in the nose. Medium-bodied. Front is dry raspberry stones then tartness leading to raspberry juice. Oak is less there in the flavour than in the aroma. Mouthpuckering aftertaste. Nice easy sipper although reminds a bit too much about homemade raspberry juice.
Draught at Toronado SD. Brown color, white head. Sour taste with raspberry, tart, wheat, earthy notes, red currant and grass. Sour finish with raspberry, wheat, tart, red currant and grass. Excellent sour ale.
Bottle from Whole Foods in San Carlos, California back in May 2017. Pours a deep light brownish red with a slightly off white head that dissipated pretty quickly. Huge aroma of tart raspberry, some sour cherry notes and a definite oak character. Taste is quite tart raspberry and big lactic sourness, with some sour cherry and lingering oak notes.
Coral brown color, beige head. Raspberry nose, vinous, cherry, hint of wood. Raspberry taste, oak, sour, cherry, funky notes. Medium body, soft carbonation.

From 16 ounce Prowler. $11.00
It pours a clear light brown with reddish hues, an inch of foam, good lacing.
Smells of both sweet and sour raspberries. So fresh smelling.
More tart than sweet, hence the name, so juicy, so natural, hints of vanilla, not complex to my palate but who needs super complex when this is as awesome as it is.
Light side of medium bodied, enough carbonation to get it done.
So damn enjoyable.
great sour not overwhelming sweet
Orangeröd, lätt disig öl med ett gulvitt skum. Doft och smak av naturliga hallonaromer, mjölksyre-
och citrussyrlighet och lätt jordig funkighet. Ganska komplex.
Bottle from Capones, think it might be 2015 which may explain the intensity. Cloudy dark rose with a light rose head. Intense sour raspberry, acidic, some oak, cleans the enamel off the teeth, moderate carbonation and strong body, settles down a little bit but this is once intense beer...I guess I would have liked something a little more mellow and complex...but maybe should have drank it sooner!
