Bomber at the Mongers tasting. Pours a clear orange color with a medium white head. A big perfumy citrus nose. Big fresh citrus, light sour funky oak, a bit of grainy sweetness. Very flavorful.

Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma is rather citrus forward with lots of lemon and orange, lighter lemon and grapefruit. A light grain note with moderate acidity. Faint oak notes. Pours a fairly clear, bright, gold color with a medium small, somewhat thin, white head that shows decent retention for its size. Lingers as a small film that is replenished by carbonation being released. No lacing or legs. Flavor is fairly acidic with a light sweetness and a bit of a citrus oil note that lingers on the lips. Lots of orange and lemon notes. Some lighter lime and grapefruit. Low bitterness and faint oak. Light grain notes. Mouthfeel is medium light bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a decent sour but the zesty citrus note is too strong. The oily note that lingers isn’t super appealing either.

Pours slightly hazy golden apple, medium beige head, dissipates fairly quickly with decent lacing. Aroma is passionfruit and barnyard funk, grapefruit, tangerine. Flavor is quite tart, hugely citrus and tropical fruity, light funk, oak. Medium body. Solid.

Bottle at RBWG. It pours yellow with a white head. The aroma is potent citrusy lime zest with some nice herbal notes. The flavor is super sour. Lactic and lemony. Little herbals and lime. Very sour and light bodied. Seems lower gravity than it is. Nice stuff.

Bottle, thanks for sharing. Pours a cloudy light gold with a white head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma has a great tart lemon lime note with light wheat and bitterness. Flavor has a great lemon lime tartness with a bit of wheat and grass supporting.

The beer is a light orange color. It’s clouded over. Small to medium white head, fairly fizzy and fades away fairly quickly. The aroma is full of citrus flavor. It mostly pushes out the De Garde funk, but you can find a bit in the background if you go searching. It’s big mix of lemon, orange, grapefruit, tangerine. Good stuff. Some slightly yogurty tartness. Fairly acidic on the palate. Lots of citric sourness. A bit bracing but I’m enjoying it. Not super sour, rather it’s just strongly citrusy with a decent pucker. More getting hit with unsweetened lime juice than straight vinegar. It’s refreshing and the citrus flavor is quite nice. Again, the citrus flavor does push out most other flavors. Mild lacto, a touch of malt and a little funk. Medium to light body. I liked this more than expected.
