Quite sour with the cherry coming in second and the vanilla a distant third. Mainly just big sour cherry that's not very sweet. The vanilla eventually comes in on the back end to provide some complementary sweetness. The cherry also starts to linger on the palate and both bring more character to the table than just straight lactic acid tartness.

Rose petals, mint, savory herbs and punchy red fruit jump from the glass in this racy and exuberant wine.Gorgeous fruit that hits all the right notes. As always, the Gamay Noir is floral, lifted and savory, with pulsating acidity.

Warm buttery toffee flavors right up front that give way to dusty cocoa and bittersweet chocolate. Some dark fruits linger in the background, but this is all brown sugar/toffee/maple syrup up front. There is some coffee or dark fruity like tannic bitterness to balance the sweetness.

The brew starts off saison-like, floral, lemony, and with a strong current of grape or white wine character. A taste of bubble gum pops up. As it warms, it becomes more grape-heavy, like what you'd expect from a barleywine or old ale, and less funky. It's tasty and a little scattered simultaneously.

Bracing palate entry subsumed by a moderately oaky tang. Flavors develop slowly but fully. Remarkably long finish, drying at first, but with an increasingly nuanced sweet and nutty aftertaste, haunted by the ghost of fruit and wood. The apricot meat notes come forward more as the beer warms, though this seems best served well chilled.

Pours a crimson color with a light purple head which fades immediately. The aroma has tart blueberries and oak. The taste is a combination of tart and mildly sweet blueberries with some oak and sugar present. Not overly complex, but there is plenty of blueberry taste.

Plums, sweet cherries, clove and figs upfront followed by a big sugary sweetness. Behind that is a solid malt base - caramel and a nice dry crackery note. Maybe a slight leathery hint. There is a definite Belgian yeast flavor in here as well. Towards the end is a big raisin note that is cut with a slight alcohol presence
