Pours a disgusting plum brown toilet water with lots of sediment. Looks pretty nasty. Lots of adjuncts in this beer so I\u2019m not surprised.<\/p>\n<p>S &#8211; Nose is straight up sour cherry &amp; vinegar. I can get some vanilla.<\/p>\n<p>T &#8211; Taste is sour and tart but I can get Coconut, chocolate and vanilla very clearly at the start, middle and the long finish. the tart acidic tastes of cherries, candies and wheat do take a back seat to what this beer was supposed to be. I expected a malt bomb and I\u2019m getting a soured adjunct strong ale and that is really disappointing.<\/p>\n<p>M &#8211; Thin and oily mouthfeel. Residual tartness before vanilla comes through at the long finish<\/p>\n<p>O &#8211; So, I\u2019m not surprised how bad this is but I\u2019m bummed out. I guess this beer was free minus shipping so it\u2019s not really an all out loss but I certainly won\u2019t be opening another one for a while and may just take it to bottle shares with the warning that it\u2019s probably sour. No point in trying to trade or give it away. Frankly, I\u2019ll probably drink half of this.
