Reviewed from (long-standing) notes. Poured from a 750 mL bottle into a Tampa Bay Brewing Company snifter glass.
A: Dark reddish brown, quite hazy, with a big light tan foamy head that sticks around a bit. There's lots of carbonation bubbles running up the sides of the glass.
S: Surprisingly low aroma. A bit of malic and acetic tartness, underripe fruit, and some hard-water mineral quality. That's all I'm getting here.
T: Tart cherries, malic acid and citric acid. Quite a bit of acid up front, and just a kiss of acetic as well. There's some significant toasted sweet malts showing up, especially as it warms, in the back end. It finishes tart, acidic, with some lingering sweet malts.
M: Average body, low alcohol presence, and a good amount of carbonation sensation.
O: Not bad. More malt presence than a lot of sour/wild beers have, and I'm not sure that that meshes well with the acidic/tart profile. But while that may be more personal preference, it's not my favorite.

I enjoyed this during the recent palindrome week sour ale tasting I hosted, enjoyed chilled in a tulip.
The color is dark ruby with burgundy shade and no lace sticks with translucent clarity. The smell is cherry -like with fruity sourness and hit of funk with mild aroma of wood. The feel is very smooth with light malt body and moderately carbonated with light sourness and slight toasted grain with generally dry finish.
The taste is very nice with tart presence up front with the familar flanders -berry and slight malt in the middle with tangy sour with an almost caramel and earthy middle with funk and slight fruity plum-like taste. This is a decent wild ale, the nod to belgian Oud Bruin style -nice sourness level with some slight fruitiness and the barrel is present in the taste. I consider this more drinkable than most considering the fact the intensity is on point -not so sour that is takes away from the overall enjoyment.
