Let's keep this sour ball rolling shall we. This sour obsession is turning out to be what my imperial stout hook looked like a few months ago, but the Mikkeller thing is never going away, the guy just keeps coming up with more and more things every day.
This one was a little bit different then the Oude Gueuze I had consumed earlier that day.
This wasn't as pungent in the aroma, but definitely had some great qualities to it.
Reading up on this beer I found out that it was aged for 10 months on sour cherries and after tasting it I can definitely see that. It was as if I bit into a cherry. My cheeks puckered and the finish left my mouth a little dry, as most sours tend to do. The color was more on the red side, slightly cloudy and hazy with no foam to speak of. The carbonation seemed a little low but that didn't hold back on the flavor attack.
It was another extremely great sour and I can't wait to crack open another sour from Cisco.
Grade A
I was playing cards and drinking at the same time, not always the best decision when your trying to make money.
