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.

4.05/5  rDev -2.4%
look: 3.75 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
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
