Enfield, New Hampshire, USA &#8211; DEC 31, 2015<\/p>\n<p>75CL Bottle acquired in a trade. Bottled 7\/22\/2013 and it\u2019s bottle 120 of 353. I think I gave up a 37.5CL Blabaer for this bottle shortly after release. Split 3 ways at fridge temp. Bottle stored upright for many months.<\/p>\n<p>A &#8211; Gorgeous color. Pink reddish color a 1 finger head that fades to a think ring. It looks absolutely gorgeous.<\/p>\n<p>S &#8211; it smells pretty darn good. Distinct Saint Lamvinus aroma. Grapes, cheese, funk, a hint of metallic with wine barrel. Really smells amazing.<\/p>\n<p>T &#8211; Taste is juicy, sweet, a ton of wine barrel. Really juicy like straight up grape must, raspberry juice and apples. Chalky and covers the teeth with sour candies but the barrel notes and berry is awesome. There\u2019s a bit of copper penny and mold flavor<\/p>\n<p>M &#8211; This is far more dense than traditional lambic and the beer doesn\u2019t have a blended taste to it and carbonation is very light.<\/p>\n<p>O &#8211; So final thoughts? Well, I drink a lot o fruit lambic and this is a dense, overly acidic acid bomb with out the refinements of a Kriek, Merlot, Framboise lambic. . However, for an american sour, it\u2019s really really really great.<br \/>\n<a title=\"View &#039;Bullfrog Le Roar Grrrz Druiven&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/23857801860\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Bullfrog Le Roar Grrrz Druiven\"  width=\"640\"  height=\"427\"  border=\"0\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1712\/23857801860_519e79db0d_z.jpg\" ><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View &#039;Bullfrog Le Roar Grrrz Druiven&#039; on Flickr.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/23526659403\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Bullfrog Le Roar Grrrz Druiven\"  width=\"640\"  height=\"427\"  border=\"0\"  class=\" pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5664\/23526659403_59fe2bcdbf_z.jpg\" ><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Overall 4.2\/5 AROMA 9\/10 APPEARANCE 5\/5 TASTE 8\/10 PALATE 3\/5 OVERALL 17\/20 AdamChandler (4004) &#8211; Enfield, New Hampshire,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"apple_news_api_created_at":"2016-03-17T01:55:30Z","apple_news_api_id":"53334037-41ea-45bc-b66e-3fa5d7b9becd","apple_news_api_modified_at":"2016-03-17T01:55:30Z","apple_news_api_revision":"AAAAAAAAAAD\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/w==","apple_news_api_share_url":"https:\/\/apple.news\/AUzNAN0HqRby2bj-l17m-zQ","apple_news_cover_media_provider":"image","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_cover_video_id":0,"apple_news_cover_video_url":"","apple_news_cover_embedwebvideo_url":"","apple_news_is_hidden":"","apple_news_is_paid":"","apple_news_is_preview":"","apple_news_is_sponsored":"","apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":[],"apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_custom_appearance":"","csco_disable_excerpt_posts_layout":false,"csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[160],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-7832","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-reviews","7":"cs-entry","8":"cs-video-wrap"},"apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pb3IC4-22k","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":3471,"url":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/2016\/08\/17\/review-hill-farmstead-dorothy-wine-barrel-aged\/","url_meta":{"origin":7832,"position":0},"title":"\u2605 Review: Hill Farmstead Dorothy (Wine Barrel Aged)","author":"Adam Chandler","date":"August 17, 2016","format":false,"excerpt":"4.2\/5 AROMA\u00a09\/10\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0APPEARANCE\u00a04\/5\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0TASTE\u00a08\/10\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0PALATE\u00a04\/5\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0OVERALL\u00a017\/20 \u00a0 750ml bottle split two ways at fridge temp.
