Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: murky yellow pale color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: peachy to apricot-like tones up front with some citrusy and grassy tones in the middle then a funky to sour vibe rolling in from underneath and fully blending
Flavor: sour and tart in the front combining the prior noted aromas to a fine quality; finishes semi-peachy and apricot-like with ample tart and sour vibes
Texture: medium bodied, leaning towards being a sipper; the sour and tart character does act fairly assertive towards the tongue, good dry hopping quality here
Overall: a dry hopped sour ale I would very much welcome again.

Opaque and pale. Bubbly head. Bright el dorado and apricot nose, lactic sourness. Tart, lots of bright hops and again solid apricot. Solid…I wish people made more of these dry hopped sours.

Draught at the source: pours hazy yellow with white head. Aroma is apricot, mostly, generally funky. Taste is lightly sour, apricot is well represented. Nice fruity aftertaste.

22oz bottle at The Sovereign in DC. Poured a very hazy yellow color with a pretty large white head. Aroma was some light funky apricot notes, some juicy hops. Interesting, not overly sour, not overly tart. Decent apricot character though.

Tap @ Cole's. Looks like orange juice. Mango shake, apricots, little happiness. More like a fruit drink.

Tap at Mama Lor’s. Love apricot nose with tropical fruits and citrus, lightly acidic, bit of wood. Crewmy and tart but not puckering, great apricot flavor which goes perfectly with the hops. Loved this, and yes, so crushable.
