22oz bottle pours a hazy, burnt orange with a creamy, beige head. Nose is battery acid and burnt toast, some whole grains, some apple cider vinegar. Really oxidized. Flavor is tart, SUPER tart, white vinegar, apple cider vinegar. Full bodied, acidic finish. Just way too much acid.

Wash. DC tasting. golden, thin white head vinegary palate, light malts, deep tartness, puckering mouthfeel with lasting apple sourness. Yes this is indeed, a great wild ale, definitely on the very sour side. Dry-crispy palate and finish, and yes, it’s vinegary all the way. Tasty.

Bottle thanks to Kan, big thanks as always! Poured a slight hazy amber with a purple hue and a near white head that dissipated somewhat quickly. Aroma was overall sour with acidic fruits, but an odd late note of popcorn kernels. Flavor was began slightly sweet with a quickly growing sour fruit and acidic notes that lead to a nice finish.

Bottle thanks to thirdeye11 and travita. Pours with a large tan head that fades over a a golden body. Aroma of burnt popcorn, fruit, vanilla, alcohol, and sourness. Taste is acidic, sour, fruity, some diacetyl, but very sour, sour, sour. Very dry, tannic and acidic. Well done spontaneously fermented beer.
