Retired without any reviews or ratings?!?!? Oh hell, I'll give some great feedback on this.
Bottle on the back reads "02/22/18."
This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a ruddy burnt amber to slightly off orange color with a fizzy semi-foamy thin cap of head. No lace.
The aroma had a huge impact of sour red cherry flesh and skin bleeding into a vinous sweet to leveled grassy smooth and light barrel tones. Slighter whiff of funk.
The flavor leaned towards the sour cherry skin initially but allowed some cherry fleshy sweet to tart character to shine through with some warmth. Clenching aftertaste of red cherry flesh and some vinous barrel.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fair sipping quality about it due to some vinous dryness. Nice enough carbonation with some sour pucker. Finishes crisp with a touch of stickiness.
Overall, I'd say a pretty nicely done American wild ale that I would have again. And a nice fairly old school pucker that was quite enjoyable.

Bottle from Winooski Beverage, VT.
