Very drinkable dark sour. Cherries a la 2017. Almost chewy Tawney port, leopold barrels. Big mouthfeel. Dark red body. What's not to like. Thanks Jason B.

3.85/5  rDev -3%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.75
Appearance: Pours espresso colored with a one finger head; a ringlet forms and leaves spotty lacing behind

Smell: The whiskey barrel aroma presents along with the black cherry tones though the cognac and port are harder to discern; hints of chocolate and coffee

Taste: Vinegary, at the outset, with vague tart black cherry flavors; try as I might, I am not picking up much else

Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate carbonation

Overall: The label sounded so good on this one but it just doesn't have the elements I was hoping to find
