American Wild Ale.
Main compaint: if it was 2 inches dryer it might be perfect.
L: Dark. Burnt Caramel and (over)ripe cherries.
S:Honeysuckle and plum.
T: Sour then Sweet. Then Dry. Funk (would love a dram more Funk). The wine and bourbon barrels roll together, wine first. Explosive fruit (Zin) and subtle depth. Been a few years but I swear it reminds me of Libertine's Saison Fonce. A sour with the body of a saison (and almost the look and almost the heft of a stout). The zing of the zine is the single most dominant effect but at least three other agents at play.
F: Tart and soft on the toungue, minor head and small carbonation, like a carbonated barolo.
O: The most unique beer in a year ... I can't find enough wild ale, excited when I do. Not cheap but worth it.
