Vintage 2010
Bomber poured into a victory tulip glass. This is just an amazing beer, Just about perfect in my opinion. It pours a very nice orange color, very clear. A finger and a half worth of white head. The smell is nice.. A light yeast spice, fresh apple, light strawberry notes, some sour and some funk notes. Taste is slightly sour with a touch of funk and nice carbonation. Notes of strawberry hard candy, fresh apple, yeast spice, faint grape must. Just amazing. Chardonnay dryness, strawberry hard candy like after taste lingering. Amazed.

Served this 22 oz. brown bottle in a Tripel Karmeliet glass. Bottled on: 5/21/10. 2016 also stamped on label, this must be the best by date. (there is no way this one will be around that long!). The body was a deep golden amber. Clear of sediment. The khaki head left lumpy clumps of lacing and settled to a healthy film.
The smell was very fruity at first. Cloves, stonefruit, and herbal. There was an understated, dusty Belgian yeast aroma. Peppery and flowery.
The taste reflected the aroma, and then some. Tart fruitiness. Creamy. More stonefruit. Herbal - I suppose this is the hibiscus. Flowery but not too much. Belgian yeast dankness. Peppery and drying. A very well constructed beer, I really enjoyed this one and purchased another the next day.
The mouthfeel was champagne-like. Fine, prickly carbonation blended well with the medium body. One of my favorite, if not my favorite GI beer.

A. bronze copper color, carbonation disappears quickly, so almost no foamy head
S. Partially sweet with a little bit of the yeast but almost no booziness
T. Mild sweetness followed by a tart taste from the hibiscus and a hint of green apples in the after taste. Very smooth tasting though, and easy to drink for something with a little bit of sour in it.
M: very lite, but the carbonation fades really quickly. on first sip though you can feel it more
O: Great and very drinkable. I'm not a big fan of Goose Island, but this is a great slightly sour beer.
Serving type: bottle

4.83/5 rDev +23.8%
A: Brown pour with orange around the edges and a finger or so of fluffy white head. A really interesting coating of thin, bubbly lacing coats the sides of my New Belgium Globe. A fury of bubbles escape from the bicycle etching and build a circle of white head atop the beer that refuses to leave.
S: The strawberries in the aroma mix with the saison-like backbone and hibiscus flowers very nicely. I'm actually pretty surprised by the amount of fruit in I'm getting here, but it isn't cloyingly sweet which is typical of this style. It's very clean and inviting.
T: This is definitely the deepest, most interesting, Belgian Pale Ale I've come across. The malty base and mild hoppiness provide a palette for berries, very slight barnyard funk, and a nice tartness to work their magic. The differing flavors are subtle, but beautiful. I'd call this a mix of Saison and Belgian Pale Ale. Certainly a taste to be savored.
MF: Light body with a very nice twinge of carbonation. The dry finish lends to a balanced spice and malt profile to make Fleur absurdly drinkable.
O: I can't believe they're going to stop making this beer and I just found it! It was a treat and a very nice surprise. I would advocate Goose Island re-thinks retiring Fleur.

This beer is a pleasant surprise. I had it with steak and mushrooms and it cleaned up after them quite well. The carbonation was robust, but too much so. The head, lace, and color all indicated a well made beer. This one is balanced as are many Goose Island beers.
My memory of these flavors and ingredients goes back to one iteration of Hair of the Dog Rose (of several I've enjoyed). Rose has changed over time. The one to which I refer was the one made with beet sugar and hibiscus flowers. Alan Sprints is a brewing genius.
This, too, is a most outstanding beer. I thought "buy a case" even before I was half way through the bottle. I can't get Hair of the Dog beer in Illinois. This is a reminder of Rose and a worthy colleague.

Poured from 22oz bomber into a duvet glass.
Pours medium amber, some orange copper. Light white foam floats on the top. Floral smell. Candy notes. Orange fruit. Light Belgian yeasty taste with citrus undertones. Subtle hop finish. Fruity. Very powerful carbonation. Orange fruit finish. Excellent. Soft, subtle, full of flavor.

poured from b- =ottle into pub glass. This is a bottle from 2010, and I enjoyed it with a grilled roast beer/baby swiss/cheddar and pickle sandwich (which did not skue the grade)
A - looks beautiful, nice orange and frothy lace, with 1 inch head that resonates the whole glass.
S - sweet tarts, definitely candy, with a hint of sour
T - slight sour start, sweet middle, with a tart finish. Tastes fantastic, a very interesting brew.
M - very vibrant, and lively. Very easy to drink.
O - very glad I stumbled into the store that had several of these on the shelf. Glad I bought the rack (over a five day period)

Fleur has a blistered golden hue, like that of a late summer sunset, and is equally picturesque too. It glows as if a million rays of light have been encapsulated within its body; the only thing impeding clarity is its blaring brightness. There is a porous net cast over its surface but it, along with the tiny trim along the perimeter, is a poor excuse of a head.
This bouquet could rival that of the world's best gardens and is, somewhat literally, a breath of fresh and lively air. It smells as though flowers are germinating right beneath my nose. Their sprightly sprouts climb right up into my nostrils and deposit effervescent buds that are so sensual so as to be quite sedative. This goes where no tea has gone before.
Pale and lightly toasty malts taste of fresh bread while the numerous flowers added - not the least the hops - create a spread of colorful and fruity jams to smear over them. Spritzes of citrus and candy sweetness burst through while an array of delectable flowers is in full blossom. Berries, clove spice and herbal tea could be easily discerned. Loosely, it also tastes like a pungent, soft cheese. Or at least would pair well with one.
A tickling tartness and enthusiastically bubbled carbonation see over the whole production. It is a masterpiece. The beer is more refreshing than any 7% beer ever thought conceivable and is dry as a mid-summer breeze. Warming has no negative effects on the beer which is so delicate and tempered to begin with. Sips now occur like clockwork.
And the marks just keep going higher and higher. Whatever I paid for this bomber was a good deal and while this bottle, at only a few months of age, doesn't show definitive potential for aging, I plan to stock up the cellar with plenty more (knowing full well they won't likely survive past next summer anyhow). I'd recommend you do the same.
This beer reminds me remarkably of another Goose Island beer named Matilda, which is brewed in ode to the Belgian Trappist classic Orval. Like the latter, I would describe this as being a distilled super-essence of acres of orchards and flower gardens - only in this case that statement is closer to being actually true. Regardless, it's something very special. I wish I could be more descriptive but the emotions keep getting in the way. How beautiful!

A little about me...
I am looking for someone to travel, explore and just have fun with. Someone who is not afraid to share how they are feeling and yet with a sense of humor. Must love dogs (sounds like a great title for a movie). I want to find someone who wants to develop a relationship and friendship as well. No drama or games please....life's too short for nonsense just fun-sense.
About the one I'm looking for...
I have never met a stranger so I am looking for someone who is outgoing, humorous, easy going and sincere. I am interested in finding a serious relationship and settling down (but not settling in). Someone to be my good friend, soul mate and lover.
I'd just like to add...
I work hard, play hard and enjoy what life has to offer and would like to find a partner in crime to enjoy all that life has to offer.

This process can take a few minutes, please bear with us
By Will Hodgkinson
John Dee was a celebrated scholar, one of the first Englishmen to apply mathematics to astronomy. He chose the date for Elizabeth's coronation, helped map the New World, proposed the creation of a British Empire and was lionised at court until falling under the influence of a sinister magician called Edward Kelley. I learnt this from reading the programme, which is lucky because it would be impossible to glean it from watching the opera. Dr Dee is worth persevering with, though, because as an experimental work and a visual spectacle, it is quite magical.
The story unfolds principally through the use of a series of remarkable stage sets. Concertinas folding out of books and around the actors evoke the world of learning that Dee is immersed in.
There are moments when more standard operatic conventions take over. A scene with Dee and his wife, their relationship destroyed by Dee's infatuation with Kelley, is beautiful; a gentle theorbo and kora accompaniment articulates the pathos of the moment. Equally moving is Dee on his deathbed, exiled and ridiculed with his library in tatters, watched over by his daughter, Katherine.

JEFFERSON PARISH, LA (WVUE) -- Jefferson Parish Detectives are investigating multiple burglaries that occurred at used car lots.
According to police, the string of incidents began on April 7, 2014 at Bon Prix Auto in the 3700 block of Airline Drive in Metairie. The business's surveillance system captured images of a red or maroon four-door 2006 Chevrolet Impala that the suspects are believed to be driving. Investigators believe that the car was stolen from another used car lot, in the 2000 block of Airline Drive in Kenner, on April 4th.
The suspects again at Bon Prix Auto on April 15, 2014. During that incident, surveillance footage showed one of the suspects was in possession of a gun, holding it in a "ready" shooting position, near the yard of the business. On that same morning, the suspects burglarized the A-Quality Auto Sales lot and the Express Auto lot, both in the 1400 block of North Causeway Boulevard in Metairie.
The most recent incident occurred early Wednesday morning at Deal N Doug's in the 6900 block of Veterans Boulevard in Metairie. Detectives believe that all of the suspects are black males after looking over the surveillance footage. One of the men has multiple tattoos on his right arm.
If you have any information that could help investigators with this case, you are asked to call Crimestoppers at 504-822-1111 or the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Department Burglary Section at 504-364-5300.

Events 2004/2005 (see attached) - Brockville – fun summer event – organizer, Terry Fox - Bob and Graham have attended in the past. Can't be a sanctioned event, but is supported by Biathlon Ontario. They supply .22s and air rifle targets. Biathlon Ontario AGM April 30, 2005 3 - Terry Fox wants to turn it into a biathlon facility but there are issues with snowfall. Bob advises they have a unique target system; paddles to hit flip up and back again. Only one size target used at this race (unique design). - 3 cup races, one training camp, and one Demo were held during the year. - 3 athletes sent to Canadian Championships 7. 2005 – 2006 Proposed Races June –Brockville Summer biathlon event August – Duntroon – training camp November – Sudbury – training camp December – SSM – Ont cup 1 January – Duntroon – Ont cup 2 – air rifle January – Ottawa – Ont cup 3 February – Sudbury – Ont cup 4 – air rifle February – SSM – Ont cup 5 March – Barrie – Ontario Winter Games – air rifle Blind River? Air rifle Ottawa – Ont cup 6? -These events should be adaptable to our schedule. Items to consider: Nationals date, Cadet events, Cadet Nationals in SSM, out-of-province events. -One event has to be chosen and called our Provincial Championship. -Identification and screening of athletes for the 2007 CWG needs to start. -The VP technical will add training camps/races and have input into schedule to fit the program needs. -There is a need for people to organize and host events. SSM facility will need to be booked well in advance (July?). 8. Canada Winter Games See section 5. 9. Ontario Winter games Bob Woods – They were supposed to be in Timmins but are now being held in Sarnia. The last OWG were split venues - London and Barrie (snow sports). This year they will be in Sarnia, snow sports will be in Barrie again, at Hardwood Hills. Date of March 10-12(?). - Chris inquired why using air rifle, Bob advised has had discussions and they are not willing to do the change. - If we didn't have air rifles we wouldn't be at the OWG. Biathlon at the games will expose people to the sport. Had to go to the cadets because not enough member participants in 2004. - Biathlon would be dropped if host cities had to create range and facilities. - SSM had been part of the games 1999 and targets were funded by a Biathlon Ontario special grant – Government Sports money – (outside games funding) and 22's were used - OWG in Barrie, costs are up to participate. Costs more per individual. There are issues around funding, regarding lodging/meals/transportation. - The games ran well last year 2004. This is one way to get kids involved right now. - Dan commented all kids 13 to 14 on air rifle. Kids 15 to 16 on .22 rifles. Makes sense you can have a race almost anywhere. 10. Nationals rd - No date yet. June 3 is the AGM for Biathlon Canada. More info to follow. - Funding costs for nationals i.e. race fees, lodging, etc– have to be looked into Biathlon Ontario AGM April 30, 2005 4 11. Coaching/Officials – Graham - New program - Basic official level – pilot program entry level - Self study package - Certificate at events/competitions in various areas - Course was a 2 day course now a 1 day course. Entry level coarse to replace it. Basic officials' course still available. - Exceptionally good material – far better program than in the past. Self study program is downloaded first for free. $15.00 cost. You end up with entry-level certificate. - Looking to see how it's going to go. The incentive is not there to complete the course. Either way is available right now. Course is better as far as question/answer aspect. - Ontario hasn't been generating very many civilian officials lately but have for cadets. - A Technical Delegate (TD) is a requirement at an official Championship race. -Coaching courses were held but no one from Biathlon Ontario civilian members were there. 12. Rentals and Equipment - Need someone to be Equipment Coordinator to track all equipment - Equipment Inventory detailed list was looked at and fine tuned as to the location of each item. - Daisy Carbines – Biathlon Canada – Graham asked for them, not same sights and stocks as the rifles, but ok for training. 1 has a missing sight. - Alvin spoke with a Mrs. Sutton of Timmins; 2 - .22 targets (BiOnt's) and possibly 6 Lakefield rifles -There are a number of rifles 10 yrs ago that have gone missing.(no records ever past on by previous executive - Equipment set up at different locations. Every air rifle has a target. Blind River has 2, Duntroon has 5, Sudbury has 5, Chelsea has 4. Bob has a broken one here today, to be taken in by Marcia for repairs. - Marcia looking for 2 of air rifles to send to SSM. - Bob advises - Need to purchase more air rifles. The ones we had made special for us. The differences were upgraded stock, sight and 5 rounds. Biathlon U.S.A. didn't end up buying any. Daisy will not make those same rifles again, although other models are available. There is a price increase in the rifles - 752C are good rifle, mostly stock changed upgrading. - David Endleman rifle purchase from Mike Percy may finally go through. - Christopher Whitecross purchased rifle that Graham Lindsey was holding - Rental fee increase for air rifle going up $5.00 to $30/year. Equip manager to draft rental form. 13. Clubs and Facilities Note: SSM and Chelsea you can shoot .22 as they are approved ranges. Chelsea Nordiq -All paperwork up and running, they are able to run a race. Petawawa - Chris advises Ian had a connection there. Range there, targets still exist. They had to decide if they were going to bring the range up again. Haven't decided yet. Targets have been sitting there for a few years. Access to the building is an issue. Rental fees? - Chris is willing to speak to the base commander from the Brigade. There are not enough people who want to use it. Brigade is not willing to support Biathlon. The cadets were willing to pay the cost but the Brigade didn't really want to do it. - Chelsea needs 2 more targets; maybe the Petawawa targets could be used for parts, because they are old? Collingwood – Blue Ridge – Karen Kristy needs a snowmobile to groom the trails to hold a race there. Cadets do have a race there. There are no ups and downs on the trail. Grooming is an issue. Sudbury - Club has 6 to 7 serious athletes willing to compete on the circuit and has others in the development stages. Biathlon Ontario AGM April 30, 2005 5 SSM - Soo Finnish club supported the race in the Soo with 10 ski background athletes and want to restart the club again-asking for 2 air rifles to start up-willing to host a race in mid Dec. and possibly later. facilities need to be booked early (July) Duntroon - Willing to host a summer training camp (late Aug) and an air rifle biathlon race (Jan) Saint Andrew's College - Registers as a club every year and attended the Duntroon race Blind River - Looking at forming a club and has been operating under the Sudbury club. They have 3-4 serious athletes willing to compete on the circuit and others in development. 14. Cadet Organization - Peter Westlake is the Cadet Biathlon Coordinator for the area from Wawa east to Ottawa. - Ontario has 4 divisions - 3 divisions participate in biathlon - 1 division holds a summer biathlon camp - 350 cadets participate - 170 athletes in northern division - They are not members of Biathlon Ontario as a group - Ottawa/Kingston is their largest growing area - Possibility of a new private site in Kinmount (north of Lindsey) - On May 4 there will be a visit to the Kinmount site by Cadet personnel - 300 acres -developing ranges - large facility -develop biathlon site -There are not proper facilities in Eastern Ontario, only local ranges. No skiing/shooting facilities in Eastern Ontario. - Eastern Ontario cadets presently use Crean Hill private facility outside of Sudbury. -Cadet Nationals are in SSM. They are presently developing the course i.e. bulldozing, improving the course, going to a full length of range (24 lanes). - Chris recommended cadets join Biathlon Ontario en masse. Peter has helped out a lot lately and has been very accommodating to Biathlon Ont. The training of coaches and officials in Ontario has helped. Quebec does things differently. 15. Web site - Graham is keeping up the web site. He is looking for someone to take over. We continue to pay $50.00/yr for URL we are paying for two: ".on.ca" and ".on" 16. Award Recipients Male Athlete: Christopher Whitecross Female Athlete: Alicia Hurley Volunteer: Marcia Ranger Official: Passed this year 17.

Pinkish with no head, with champagne carbonation.The taste was light, neither sour nor sweet. A cross between a wine and a spotaneously fermented beer.This is majority grape product according to Vinnie. Smooth for a sour ale and unexpected qualities, but not overally complex in the tasting notes.

Batch 001. Sunny tangerine with multiple fine bubbles buffeting a light shower of falling yeast as they rise, eventually plinking into the bottom of a barely beige crown. The foam is crackly and unsticky. It doesn't look very attractive as a result and is leaving the glass untouched. Not an auspicious start.
The nose gets things back on track in a major way. Who would have ever imagined that microorganisms and beer would be such a wonderful combination? Depuration uses two different yeast (wine and Brettanomyces) and two different bacteria (Lactobacillus and Pediococcus). That's both ironic and amusing in an ale whose name means 'to cleanse or purify or to become cleansed or purified'.
Simply put, the aroma is an olfactory symphony. The critters add a stunning amount of funky complexity to a base beer that would have probably have been just as aromatic and just as delicious on its own. The fruitiness of the Chardonnay grapes is easily appreciated, as is the buttery oakiness imparted by the barrels.
It would have been almost impossible for RR Depuration to taste as fantastic as it smells. Vinnie has given it a good shot, though. If you like sour funk, seek this one out as soon as possible. Some might think the combination of Brett, Lacto and Pedio is over the top. They would be wrong. Just be aware what you're in for before you pull the cork.
White wine comparisons cannot be ignored. No surprise given that 60 lbs of Chardonnay grapes were used per barrel. The beer has a tart fruitiness and an underlying sweetness that marries perfectly with the more esoteric flavors that are zinging this way and that each time the glass is upended. What a treat for the tongue!
Batch 001 is approximately 2.5 years into its recommended 3 year lifespan for aging. The flavor has probably never been better, but the mouthfeel is showing signs of wear. It's a little light and the carbonation is on the harsh and fizzy side (better later in the bottle). Bottle conditioning can be hit or miss... and this one is more hit than miss.
Depuration is yet another outstanding American wild-sour ale from one of the planet's master brewers. It's too bad that Russian River no longer ships their beer across the entire country. Hopefully, those days will return. This lip smacking, puckery, funktastic masterpiece is worth whatever shipping charges are required.

huge thanks to Calton for brining this one to our tasting last night. a long time want of mine i was thrilled to see it show up. poured into a snifter.
not at all what I expected as a nice brown colored liquid came chugging out of that bottle. small bubbles around the side and very hazy look to it. aroma is soo odd. lots of toffee, caramel, buttery notes that are layered on top of an odd sour note, but it really really works. flavor was more of the same, you can tell how sweet this was originally as it still maintains massive complexity and a wonderful smooth finish. such rich toffee and complex favor in the finish it was simply unlike anything i have had before.
overall just a superbly wonderful beer. enough good cannot be said of this.

Huge thanks to Andy for bringing this one to the tasting yesterday. I'm very excited to be reviewing this one.
Review #400
A: The pour is a very hazy golden color with some small carbonation bubbles, but not too much in the way of head formation.
S: The grapes really stand out despite this bottle being about four years old. The fruit provides a very interesting combination of buttery sweetness and tartness which is very inviting. There is a bit of lemony lactic tartness to the nose as well.
T: The nose translates almost perfectly to the palate, with the flavor being a little bit better (though that's certainly hard to do). Again, the grapes really come through strongly and have such an amazing contrast. The front end features the sweetness of the grapes with the back end being tart, fruity, and dry.
M: The beer is smooth, and despite the low visual appearance of carbonation, there are a nice amount of bubbles on the tongue.
D: Easily one of my favorite beers I've had the pleasure of trying. It's too bad this one won't be made again and that it's so hard to come by.

Thanks for sharing this one, Dyan.
A: Clear and golden, the wispy white head doesn't stick around too long.
S: Vinous, buttery Chardonnay up front, the grapes still dominate this one after several years in the bottle. Musty damp cellar, hay and lemons.
T/M: Light lactic sourness, buttery oak, white wine, green grapes. Spritzy, champagne-like carbonation. A bit musty and spicy with a dry, tannic finish. Pleasantly light-bodied and drinkable, but not as remarkably complex as Vinnie's other sours.

Huge thanks to stowehop for this treat. Batch 001. Served in a Duvel tulip and shared with BeerTruth after a long adventurous drive from Maine, followed by a little bar-hopping in the 'Cuse.
A - Pours with a finger of foam that eventually settles to a thick ring and some haze. Not much in the way of lacing. Hazed apricot body that is quite pleasant to look at.
S - Sweet Jesus! Even though this is 3+ years old, it sizzles with the intensity of fresh white grapes, tropical brett notes, general funkiness, wine oak, and light acetic acid. I think the oak has dissipated some from the initial reviews, and revealed the rich, deep, complex web of flavors. It's got all the things I love about sours, working in wonderful harmony.
T - The taste is a little smoothed out, but only a bit. Wonderful forefront of sweet ripe grapes and funky fruity brett, and a finish of sourness and white wine tannins. You can perceive the relationship to Temptation.
M - Superb. Soft, but lively, carbonation that supports a body that is big enough for 7%, but light enough to be refreshing. No perceptible alcohol. Finishes dry, but never reaches parched proportions.
D - I didn't know this was made from Temptation when I drank it, but looking back that makes a lot of sense seeing how similarly I scored the two beers. Again, a dark horse beer emerges from a crowded field to be the highlight of a wonderful weekend.
Why is this not being made again? I will buy Russian River Muscat grapes if that's what it takes...

Somehow I was at the right place at the right time and got to sample some of this bottle thanks to the other Matt. Thanks buddy. A very cool treat, very cool.
Beer poured into a snifter. Beer is yellow to amber in color. Forms nearly no head, no lacing and the carbonation level is low. There is a moderate haze to the beer overall. Looks OK for a sour.
The aroma is sour with a Brett funkiness to the whole thing, could be some stale wood I'm smelling from the wine barrel but overall its mostly lactic with a biting acetic tinge. Very nice.
Beer is quite sour but not tart. I'm not picking up much of the vinous properties I was expecting. This beer is medium to light in body and leads off with sour, follows up with more sour, and finishes mildly dry. I could definitely drink more of this stuff if that were possible. A rare treat for sure. Thanks Matt.

Batch 001, Sampled March 2007
Pours with a touch of haze and a copper to deep gold color. It is topped by a frothy, fizzy almost champagne-like head, that has more staying power than champagne, but still disappears to a thin coating across the top of the beer after peaking at about two-fingers in thickness. As I pour this I get a nice, dry, sauvignon Blanc like fruitiness as well as a bit of steely tartness. When I go in for a deeper draught of the aroma the oak becomes much more apparent; buttery oak, vanillin and a spicy woodiness are all quite noticeable in the nose. The oak actually tends to mask some of the initial fruit notes that I had noticed while pouring this brew. I wish there was a touch less oak and more of the other notes. Hopefully Vinnie will reuse these same barrels for another batch, which should have less oak influence.
The taste is pleasingly tart up front, and in fact that bit of acidity follows the flavor profile throughout. At first the oak is not as noticeable as in the nose. Again a soft sort of Sauvignon Blanc type fruitiness and character comes through in the flavor too. Actually the oak flavors never seem to be as dominant as the corresponding aromatics; soft notes of butter, spicy oak, a woody astringency, and some vanillin are noticeable but add to the over all experience here instead of dominating it. As the beer warms up it begins to pick up some soft sweetness, it is still quite dry seeming but a touch of grape like sweetness helps to balance things out even further. A touch of flinty, steely flavors are found in the finish and the couple pretty well with the lingering, light acidity. This beer is not extremely light in the mouthfeel department; I think both the oak and a touch of residual sweetness add a bit more body here that one might expect at first blush, still this is fairly light and definitely quaffable.
This beer is growing on my as I work my way through it; maybe it is my palate but it seems to be getting a bit more balanced as time goes on. I still think that a 375ml bottle is too small for a beer like this, but I could always crack open another bottle. While this beer is certainly wine-like in its flavors, I would not necessarily guess that it definitively had grapes in it; the grapes character, while certainly contributing here, have largely been fermented out and subsumed within the barrel aging process. I'll be interested to see how this batch ages.

07/15/07- Purchased at Ledger's Liquors in Berkeley, CA.
Presentation- 12.7oz bottle, batch #1. I could look up the website to see when it was bottled, but alas, I am too much of a lazy sullen pig right now. Poured into my Pilaarbijter tulip.
Appearance- Semi clouded golden pour. Effervescent carbonation bubbles rise to the top producing a seltzer-like 1/4 inch bubbly head. Very little lace action at all, but pretty common for a wild ale.
Smell- Traces of oak with a decent vanilla whiff. A bit of barnyard funk followed by some white muscat grapes.
Taste- About the perfect tartness for a beer that I have encountered. This one and Deification. Lots of chardonnay and muscat tastes which give it the mild sweetness at the end of the swallow in the mouthfeel. Also seems like there may be some other fruit flavors as well...apricot comes to mind. Not as much oak in the taste as in the nose.
Mouthfeel- Sparkling and biting carbonation kinda like a Prosecco style champagne, but not as gassy. Dry, but not too dry.
Drinkability- Vinnie does it again. Damn, how I wish I had the opportunity to buy more than one of these a few months back.

Picked up at The Toronado in San Fran. Batch 001...
Appears a semi-transparent, light gold with a small, white head that fades into a gentle cap and mellow collar.
Smell is of honey, grapes, apples, cherries, horseblanket, and funk.
Taste is of the mentioned aromas with a standout of tart grapes and citrus coming out.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied, vivacious, and funky with some tart apples lingering.

Thanks to mmtmatrix for this 375 mL corked and caged bottle of Batch 001.
A: The ale is an apricot brown, brightened by orange hues. The darkness is just enough to prevent a clear view of the other side of the glass. A lack of carbonation on pour was followed by a generally still beer in my snifter.
S: Sweet, juicy white grapes are strong from the first sniff. Apricot aromas, vanilla and oak are all evident before a light tartness bubbles to the surface. The tartness adds a minty finish.
T: How do they do it? How does Russian River make every sour taste so solid? Biscuity grains set a bready stage for sweet white charddonay grapes. The oak is robust, lending vanilla and boozy weight to the taste. The oak has also fostered a pleasant tartness, biting but not blindingly tart. A lemon zest emerges with the tartness, tempering it lightly.
M: The mouthfeel is pleasant, from the sweet charddonay up front to the lemony tartness in the finish. The ale is very dry.
D: The complexity is worth mentioning, with the grapes and oak and funk each adding a vibrant quality to the ale. A beautiful ale.

Thanks to Bitterbill for this brew
Batch 001
Awesome pop/smoke when opened. Poured into a chalice a nice slightly cloudy golden orange color, tons of carbonation, nice little fizzy white head which dissappears quickly, no lacing. The nose is malty, tangy, citrus, grapes, some spices, slight oak, maybe some caramel thrown in. The taste is malty, tangy, nice touch of grapes, citrus, and a nice touch of oak. Medium body. Very drinkable, another awesome brew from RR, highly recommended.

Bottled acquired via trade. Thanks Brian! Shared at my tasting on August 7, 2010 alongside six other Russian River wild ales.
Depuration appears a slightly hazy yellow color. There is only a tiny head which leaves no discernible lacing.
The aroma is wonderful. Grapes and a general tannic quality along with hints of oak barrel.
I really enjoyed this. I only wish that there was more, as this was a 375mL bottle. I enjoyed the tannic or wine-like aspect of the beer very much. I definitely found a grape presence in there as well. Russian River wild ales are some of the best beers on earth, in my humble opinion. I feel very fortunate to have sampled this rare delicacy.
M: Very tannic, with a slight vinegar bite in the finish. Terrifically sour and wonderful.
D: Of course, I'd love to try this again. Sadly, there are no plans for a re-release. A great experience.

375 ml corked and caged bottle, big thanks to oakbluff for pulling this one out of the stash! Batch 001.
Pours a slightly hazed orange amber, very thin white head forms, quickly fizzes down to a thin ring around the glass. Smell is great, grapes, honey, funky sourness, lemon acidity, wood, some light fruits, white cranberry juice, wine, more grapiness, real cool. Taste is great too, very sour and acidic up front, lemons and white grape juice, white cranberry juice, oak, touch of sweetness through the middle with a nicely sour finish. Mouthfeel is light bodied with medium carbonation, dry and acidic. Real nice beer, right amount of sourness and acidity. Very drinkable. Thanks Scotty!

Thanks to Wetherel for opening this up. Pale orange/golden with a fizzy head that settles. Aroma is of grapes, vinegar, brett, and some lemon. Initial taste is tart and sour. Sour grapes, some vanilla oak, reminiscent of chardonnay, a sour chardonnay. The carbonation is very high on this beer and the finish is very dry.

I had this during a July 4th get-together in Chicago. I was pretty psyched to get a chance at this beer, thanks to the generosity of Alex (Masterski) made possible by the previous generosity of Mike (nerd). Thanks very much Alex!
Poured into a Cigar City snifter. A clear bright copper color with a thin layer of foam, eventually a ring of suds after it settled. It smelled tart & acidic, lots of bret character with minimal grapes (easily detected as I was searching for them).
This tasted nice and sour, lactic and maybe a bit tannic, more grapes in flavor than aroma but still not the lead. Dry and crisp finish. I had a really nice pour (thanks again Alex) but I went through it very quickly, laughing at my luck to try this beer. Wish I could have had it fresher, but still a nice treat even with some age.

Review #900! And what a way to do it with another MASSIVE tick on my Russian River -tion Quest... Shared this bottle at one of our weekly tastings with beeruser, funkydelic, and mikesgroove! Batch 001! Served from bottle into a Mikkeller flute. Poured a murky red-orange with a minimal white head. Maintained decent lacing throughout the glass. The aroma was comprised of sweet malt, funk, caramel, toffee, wood, subtle sour, and dark fruit. The flavor was of sweet malt, caramel, BIG funk, wood, slight sour, toffee, and dark fruit. It had a light feel on the palate with mild carbonation. Overall this brew was just plain excellent. Based on the past reviews from a few friends of mine I was concerned about bringing this one out to this tasting due to it being a complete 'gagger'. However, this one turned out to be quite excellent. In all honesty this brew is what I would think an excellent barrel aged Barleywine would taste like if it was infused with Brett. Just plain excellent notes of caramel and toffee to combine with the funkiness in this one. Really well done brew and it appears to have held up quite well in my cellar for some time. Glad I got to share this one with a group of great friends!

Got to knock off one of my bigger whales thanks to MasterSki at our 4th of July get together. This more than makes up for all the malt liquors I was fortunate enough to "enjoy" with him. Milestone review #1050. Thanks to nerd as well for hooking Alex up with this.
A - A cloudy, yellow beer with a very minimal white head. The head did not stick around for long and left the sides of the glass clean.
S - A nice tartness, although I'm suspecting it has mellowed a little bit with time. Some oak and a little bit of fruity sweetness, but the grapes are the thing that really stands out for me here. I'm assuming they are chardonnay grapes, or something else used in white wine.
T - Taste is surprisingly smooth, with an equally smooth white grape flavor. Some decent oak and barrel notes, and a good tartness although not as much as temptation. The grapes come through quite cleanly on the end and then get a little tart to finish things off.
M - Smooth, with some active but soft carbonation and a little bit lighter on the body.
O - Great beer, would have liked to have had one of these to pop open every year just to see how it progresses, but am truly happy to have tried it when I did.

Received a bottle of this in a trade with Faro. Thanks, Jeff! I shared this at the You Bring the Cheese tasting.
A: Light orange with a thin white head. Excellent clarity, and this beer had the best retention among the sours I drank that night. Left a neat layer of lace too.
S: Mildly sour, mildly musty, hugely vinous with buttery chardonnay on the nose. Great stuff. Plenty of vanilla in the back. Acidity is very low.
T: Opens up a little sour with a lot of grape character. Mildly harsh on the finish with a big grape character along with some sourness. Sourness is moderate, acidity is low, and there is a pleasing butteriness to the palate.
M: Light but enjoyable. High carbonation is present, and the drying finish is enjoyable
D: The 7% ABV is non-existent. Very enjoyable and very drinkable.

CATEGORIES Movies, News/Reactions, Sci-FiAndrew Garfield has been cast as Peter Parker in Sony's upcoming Spider-Man reboot. The twenty-seven year old actor will be playing a fresh-faced high school version of the popular Marvel character in the new (probably 3-D) film, directed by Marc Webb. Somewhere, Josh Hutcherson and Logan Lerman are weeping.
Garfield is a relative unknown, on his way up with parts in Never Let Me Go and The Social Network. He's an unexpected choice, namely because he's not on the public radar, but also because he's damn near thirty. Wasn't the whole point of the reboot supposed to be taking Spider-Man back to his younger days?
I'm sure the next big casting news will soon follow, for the love interest (will it be Gwen Stacy or Mary-Jane Watson?) and the big villain. I'm personally holding out hope that they add an adjective to the title, to further differentiate it from the Sam Raimi trilogy. The Amazing Spider-Man, perhaps?

The images came out lovely but my it involved a lot of walking! Next time I'm shooting somewhere with an golf caddy….
Well, allow me to explain. You see, I went and got married! And so, I've been off planning that and then on honeymoon. But I'm back now and raring to go. But, whilst you can send me on holiday, you can't stop me taking photos! Two weeks in America was just what the doctor ordered. San Diego was wonderful, lovely and relaxing and Disney World was, well, Disney World! Everyone loves Disney.
To be honest, I think they just took the opportunity to have a go on all the rides again….
With most weddings happening in the sunny summer months, its a real pleasure to find a couple embracing the winter months. The light at this time of year is wonderful and who doesn't love a bit of Christmas? Lisa and Gary had their big day at St Giles' in Shrewsbury, the same church her parents had got married in years ago, and we tried to even replicate some of the photos of that wedding!
After the service it was on to the Mytton & Mermaid for some amazing food (hog roast!), crackers, speeches and some badass dance-moves! I can wholly recommend their burgers, one of the best I've had in Shropshire.
Roll Call:
Church: St Giles
Reception Venue: Mytton & Mermaid
RobWMay is a Wedding Photographer based in Shropshire. If you are looking for wedding photography as unique as you are, get in touch!
When Rhiannon and Jon told me about their day, I was sold the second they mentioned Buffy The Vampire Slayer… Bringing together all the things they love in one place, the day was so perfectly them. Put that in the beautiful surrounding of Crewe Hall and it was a day to never forget.
That and they had the most kickass first dance ever…. (scroll to the bottom for that!)
And now the video…enjoy!]]>

Career seminars link liberal arts, entrepreneurial success
The virtues of a liberal arts education don't spring immediately to mind when you imagine two guys putt-putting around Nantucket Harbor peddling homemade fruit juice to thirsty boaters.
