Cerise Cassée is a complex beer in both process and palate. Multiple fermentations begin in stainless steel with our house ale yeast, then spontaneous refermentation and aging along with 300 pounds of sour cherries takes place in the infamous CBC barrel cellar.

This is their barrel fermented wild ale. Reminiscent of the sort of things I’ve had from Russian River. Good stuff!

Appears a ruddy amber with a super sour nose on it. There’s a lot of tartness puckering the mouth. Some black cherry plays tart and sour on the palate. Distinct, dry finish. One of the favorites of the night.

look: 4.25 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5
Appearance: Arrives the color of a bold Cabernet with a one finger head; spotty lacing

Smell: Dark cherry, raisin and caramel

Taste: Dark cherry forward, bringing both sweet and lactic sour notes; the caramel tones underneath hold together with the fruit; oaky and tannic, after the swallow and into the finish

Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate carbonation

Overall: A brash wild ale with a strong vinous aspect
