New Beer Distributors, New York 50cl ($5.50): Pour misty orange with slightly off-white head. Aroma is vinegar, funk. Basically, it smells like a good sour ale. Unfortunately, the taste does not follow suit. It seems like there was a good sour here, but it got watered down. The bite is far too attenuated, and there is nothing else that the beer really has going for it, aside of being a weak sour.
