Pours with a hazy maroon body topped by a weak white head.
Very tart and moderately fruity with minimal funk.
Overall. Bold and tart!

2013 bottling
Appearance: Pours hazy, with a rusted cherry color; the head froths and fades to a ringlet, while draping a nice pattern of splashy lace
Smell: Tart raspberry, Maraschino cherry and oak, with a hint of vanilla
Taste: Lactic tart fruit flavors of raspberry and Maraschino cherry with the fruit also bringing a layer of sweet tones that complement the sour; the oak, vanilla and wheat tang emerge, in the middle; the finish is moderately tart but very fruity
Mouthfeel: Medium body with low to moderate carbonation; somewhat prickly
Overall: Don't know how this one languished in my cellar for five years and I was concerned that it might not hold up over that time; I was pleased that while the carbonation may have faded a bit, the rest of the profile was fine
