Bottle. Pours a clear gold with an orange hue and a white head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma has sour rhubarb with a light sweet raspberry and a touch of oak underlying. Flavor starts with sour rhubarb but has a growing sweet raspberry and a hint of sweet grain and oak backing.

Last of a bottle at a share. Pours a dull, cloudy, orange color, with a big, bubbly, off-white head. The aroma is tart berries, vanilla, mild rhubarb, lime, and hay. Fairly sweet and mildly tart. Medium body, with a syrupy, acidic mouthfeel. This is a fun and tasty sour.
Forgotten from last night, good balanced sour with a strawberry rhubarb nose and front.

Pours a hazy amber from a bottle. Nice strawberry rhubarb, vinegar aroma, similar flavor, nicely but not overly tart. Pretty good beer.

Bottle. Pours faint pink, light head. The aroma of rhubarb, light berry, and sour grain. Taste is extremely light, weak rhubarb, mild berries, drying texture. Based on other beers from this brewery I thought this would be a train wreck. It kind of isn't. So cheers!

Very nice beer. Aroma is mainly tart and natural strawberry flavor is like nose with some of the rhubarb added but very nicely balanced. The carbonation doesn't negatively affect the sourness and there's just the right amount of sugar in there too enhance things. Body is perhaps just a touch thin but not bad. Excellent finish.

500 ml bottle into tulip glass, bottled in 4/2017. Pours slightly hazy medium golden/yellow/light orange color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and fluffy white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin lace cap that lingers. Light spotty lacing clings on the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of big lightly tart lemon, lime, strawberry, rhubarb, pear, green apple, white wine, oak, hay, straw, herbal, grass, wheat, and cracker; with light vanilla, pepper, musty/leathery funk, and yeast/oak earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/funky/acidic yeast, fruit, oak barrel, and moderate pale malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big tart lemon, lime, strawberry, rhubarb, pear, green apple, white wine, oak, hay, straw, herbal, grass, wheat, and cracker; with light vanilla, pepper, musty/leathery funk, and yeast/oak earthiness. Light-moderate fruity/lactic tartness and yeast/tannic oak spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of tart lemon, lime, strawberry, rhubarb, pear, green apple, white wine, oak, hay, straw, herbal, grass, wheat, and cracker; with light vanilla, pepper, musty/leathery funk, and yeast/oak earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/funky/acidic yeast, fruit, oak barrel, and moderate pale malt flavors; with a fantastic malt/tartness balance, and zero puckering/astringent flavors after the finish. Moderate dryness from carbonation and acidity/tartness, increasing through the glass. Medium-high carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, crisp, moderately acidic/grainy, and lightly tannic balanced mouthfeel that is awesome. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5%. Overall this is an awesome fruited sour ale! All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/funky/acidic yeast, fruit, oak barrel, and moderate pale malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, and refreshing to drink; with the mellow acidity/tartness. Awesome balance between fruit, Brett, and Lacto flavors; with great oak presence and nice malt backbone. A highly enjoyable offering.
