Solera fermented for almost two years in our second white oak Cabernet foeder, this dark base beer was then barrell-aged for nearly four months over plums.

Appearance: Pours coffee colored with a thin head that fades to a collar; speckles of lacing
Smell: Brown bread and tart plum; quite acetic
Taste: Acetic from the outset, with a hint of plum; some brown wheat bread flavors soften, through the middle, but the finish is quite tart
Mouthfeel: Medium body with low to moderate carbonation; puckery
Overall: Perhaps this is the result of a few years in the bottle but this lacks the necessary complexity to complement the sour elements; not bad, but could be better if there was some more sweetness to balance things out
