From tap at Loyal Legion, Portland. Aroma is sour fruits with citrus, fruity hops, tropical notes, barnyard funk, peach, light malt. Flavour is nicely sour with a little hoppy bitterness in the finish. Body is medium. Very refreshing and sour fruity hoppy Lambic-ish beer, with some funky complexity. I would love to try the other beers in this series.

750ml bottle thanks to Blake. Pours out a pale straw topped with a white head. Nose is nice light lemon orange zest some tart notes and a light barrel presents. Taste is more of the nice light hops forward notes wood and a sour bread end.

Bottle thanks to Eric picked up at John's. Pours a cloudy orange hue with a large white head. Lemons and musty malt nose. Light tartness, funk, some big dusty hops, light citrus shines through. A soft palate. Biscuit and lemon finish it. Very nice.

Tasting at SF’s
Cloudy pale blond color. Nice aroma, pungent tropical fruits. Dry, overly carbonated, very pungent, tropical, sour, some astringency in the final.
Excellent.

750ml bottle at Brian’s office. Hazy blonde with a white head. Aroma is citrusy, flowery. Same taste, a little bit harsh. Quite good.

Cloudy, blonde. The aroma has some pedio/leather, with a lot of gooseberry galaxy blast, with a hit of citra as well. On the palate, it’s bright, with a lot of galaxy, and lots of citra. Good bitterness, touch of sweetness. Excellent beer, beautiful balance, and exceptional flavour.

Bottle - Tart grapefruit and peel notes. Cloudy yellow with a decent white head. Very big bright citrus notes, peel and a clean finish. Big, but finish evens it out nicely.

750mL bottle, pours a cloudy golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma is very complex, with lots of floral dry hopping, lambic-style wild yeast, and light funk. Flavour is complex, bringing out a lovely mix of lambic-style wild yeast and floral dry hopping. Not an authentic lambic, but closer to one than a regular American sour; and the dry hopping works beautiful. Lovely stuff.
