Did Your Sexual Chocolate go bad?

Been hearing a lot of chatter on twitter whether or not this years foothills Brewing’s Sexual Chocolate had some issues.  Since I was lucky enough to have a friend with an extra bottle a couple months ago, I decided to see if  my bottle was a victim to internet rumors.

I can’t say that I’ve ever had this beer before, but my guess it isn’t supposed to smell like the New Glarus Old English Porter.  However with that said, I think it smells pretty friggin’ good.  Even if it is not  the way it was intended, sometimes happy accidents can be beneficial. My beer has started to sour somewhat; there was a serious infected flavor to the beer.  Now before people starting saying, “Aww Man you must have had to dump it”,  I didn’t.

You see some times bad things happen to good beers; in even rarer cases the bad things can actually be enjoyable.  As many of you know, I choose not to write negative beer reviews.  It’s not my style or what I want people to read on Simply Beer.  However, even while this beer was not what it was supposed to be, I rather enjoyed the dry tartness; almost sour, mixed with a strong bitter chocolate flavor.

I’ve read some unfavorable tweets about this beer going bad.  My beer wasn’t bad, I don’t think it is what was intended, but not bad.  It was simply different.  So, would you have given this beer a chance?
