Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 9 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 8.5
Poured into a tulip, the appearance was a light amber color with a one finger white foamy head that dissipated fairly quick. Some light stringy lace.
The aroma had some bready and woody notes up front. Mild tart to sour citrus/vinous/earthy leather and then a crisp brett sourness.
The flavor takes all of the previously mentioned aromas to converge and end up having a light clean caramel and vanilla sweetness to amplify the taste. All of it seems to come into the aftertaste and roll into the finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair balance between sessionable and sipping ability. Vinous grip seems to agitate a fair harshness on my tongue.
Overall, pretty damn good sour ale that I would like to have again. Might be personal palate, but I seem to like the sour ales that bring forth the subtle vanilla sweetness to round it all out.
