On tap at the brewery. Pours a pale golden with a white head. Aroma is malty, slightly sour. Taste is sour with some ascorbic notes and strange bitterness. Meh.

Draft - Grapefruit and citrus hops. Clearish gold with a decent white head. Bright grapefruit citrus and Mandarin notes with some nice acidity. A little more complex and fruity than most local kettle sours.

Golden color, small persistent head. It starts with a whiff of citrusy hops, then light funk, acidity, lacto. Bone dry, not much malt or funk character, moderate lacto flavor, prominent acidity, no hops quality, and a bit astringent in the final.
Ok beer, it got a bit worse with the aging (less interesting).

Darker shade of blond, clean. The aroma is dominated by zesty citrus peel, lactic acid, and very light funk touch. The mouthfeel is dominated by the lactic acid, with citrus peel later, and some astringency in the final; the acidity level is quite high.
Clean, straight forward, very pleasant.

Bottle, Legacy.
Golden colour, slightly dull, touch of haze, with a thin head. Has a nice orangey hop nose, with the sourness underpinning. The acidity is not as clean as I might like, the hop lending some nice citrus. The hops aren’t as big as I might like.

On tap at Powell Street, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of grainy, seltzery notes, lots of acidity, and dry hopping. Flavour is along the same lines, with floral dry hopping upfront, followed by moderately acidic stone fruits, and seltzery notes. Same problem as all the other Powell Street sours - distasteful acidity and seltzery notes. No good.
