4.2/5
AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
22 ounce bottle into wine glass, bottled 12/04/2010. Pours hazy reddish orange color with a small foamy off white head with poor retention that reduces to nothing. Aromas of huge raspberry sweetness, with red wine, funk, and some sour cherry as well. Some great aromas here with good strength. Taste starts off with huge tart and sourness in the first sip. Big raspberry, cherry, and spices on the front with a good amount of tartness on the finish. Some slight lingering notes of raspberry and cherry after the finish for a bit with some tartness as well. Medium-high carbonation and medium bodied. Very crisp finish. No alcohol noticed in the taste or finish. Very nice balance of sweetness and tartness here as well. Overall a highly enjoyable wild ale from Goose Island, very drinkable and balanced.
Very nice wild ale from Goose Island, very balanced and not overwhelming with sourness. I can't wait to have the other 2 that I found while in NYC.
