Sour Black, is a Black Ale aged in Wine Barrels. These barrels are the same used Pinot Noir barrels which produced Rapture. Brettanomyces lambicus was added to the barrels adding a nice acidity. It’s fruity and tart with just enough roasted character; a truly delightful dark ale.

    Shared bottle with ModerHead. Charcoal black pour, thinnish, tall and bubbly sustained beige head, great lacing and carbonation. Light tart aroma at first, fruity, yeasty, very slight funk and Brett, only a hint of any roastedness. Nice moderate tart and sour flavor, Lightly funked and Bretty, light sweet fruits, zesty, very light cocoa, very light. Very nice indeed, glad I got to try it from my West Coast man Dan. Nice sour.

    Sampled on 10/12/2012 at GABF. This wild/sour ale pours a dark black color from a 750ml bottle. Medium sized beige foamy head. The aroma is fruity, chocolate and tart. A medium bodied wild/sour ale. The malts are roasty and sweet. The hops are herbal and earthy. Lively carbonation. Fairly solid tartness. Nice balance between the tart and sweet. A touch of wood. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly tart.
