Red ale aged in oak barrels with wild yeast and souring bacteria. Unfiltered, unpasteurized, and bottle-conditioned. This beer is a tribute to our good friend Russ Beadie. Thanks, Russ. Thuss.

    Ru-55 pours a deep brown body, until its held up to the light, them the edges turn a deep amber. The head is light tan and thin, but ti leaves some spotty lace. Nice aromas of cherries, wood, plum, and as it warms some yeast shows, pretty nice. The first taste is pure sourness, wow, as i get used to this the wood comes out first and finally some fruit comes out, unfortunetley not as much fruit as the aromas leads you to belive. I am not a huge sour fan, but this is a pretty nice beer.
