Whiskey notes are obvious (particularly rye, to our palates) and there are real prominent sour black cherry and prune notes that offer their acidity in balance to a moderate sweetness that leans towards brown sugar. At 9.4%, there\u2019s a bit of alcohol that comes through too \u2013 aided by the whiskey barrel influence. As with most sours, we prefered this beer closer to cellar temp than fridge temp.<\/p>\n<p>Spicy, oaky, fruity, boozy, and whiskey-y, this one\u2019s pretty tasty folks. And complex. And a little weird, in a good way. But it\u2019s not for everyone, as one or two of the less experienced tasters in the office didn\u2019t much care for the sourness.
