Thanks to mhksuccess for sharing this at dabaloons' tasting.
2013 vintage.
Pours a hazy light orange-red with a foamy off-white head that fades to nothing. No lacing on the drink down. Smell is sour with malt, cherry, acidic, and wood aromas. Taste is much the same with sour malt, cherry, and acidic flavors on the finish. There is a medium amount of acidity on the palate with each sip. This beer has a good level of carbonation with a crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is a good beer with a tasty sour cherry presence.

Fruity, sour, white wine, bit of lacto. Stuff is awesome. Bright and Refreshing. Not a cherry bomb by any means. A bit restrained, but balanced and delicious.

650 mL bottle poured into a snifter.
Appearance - Hazy orange body. No real head.
Smell - Some cherry. Orange and lemon citrus. A little grain.
Taste - Bright orange. Sour up front. Builds up. Wine barrel builds too. A bit of butter. Very light cherry.
Mouthfeel - Medium carbonation. Moderate sourness. Medium light body.
Overall - Got better as I drank it. I don't get much cherry at all, though.
