Can. A- Lychee, passion fruit, lemon verbana. A- Golden orange color, hazy liquid, white head. T- Tangy, acidic, lemon juice, sour. P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, tart finish. O- Sour and tangy as heck. Almost liquid warhead like. No grape notes and not really dry. Expected it to be red colored for some reasons. Pretty decent. Very tangy.

12 ounce can into tulip glass; no can dating, but is a recent release. Pours fairly hazy/cloudy pale golden yellow color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and fluffy white head with great retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of big tart/tangy white grape/wine, lemon, lime, grapefruit, orange, peach, pear, pineapple, green apple, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berry, citrus zest, hay, straw, grass, wheat, cracker, and white bread; with lighter notes of pepper, leathery/musty funk, white wine vinegar, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/funky/acidic yeast, citrus/tropical hops, grapes, and moderate pale/wheat malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big tart/tangy white grape/wine, lemon, lime, grapefruit, orange, peach, pear, pineapple, green apple, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berry, citrus zest, hay, straw, grass, wheat, cracker, and white bread; with lighter notes of pepper, leathery/musty funk, white wine vinegar, and yeast earthiness. Light-moderate fruity/lactic tartness, fruit tang; light herbal/grassy bitterness, and yeast/tannic spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of sour/tart/tangy white grape/wine, lemon, lime, grapefruit, orange, peach, pear, pineapple, green apple, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berry, citrus zest, hay, straw, grass, wheat, cracker, white bread, light funk/vinegar, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/funky/acidic yeast, citrus/tropical hops, grapes, and moderate pale/wheat malt flavors; with a great malt/tartness and tangy fruit balance. Slightly increasing pucker after the finish, but not overwhelming. Light-moderate increasing dryness from tart/sourness and tangy fruit. Medium-high carbonation and medium body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/grainy/acidic/sticky, and fairly crisp/tangy/tannic balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol for 6%. Overall this is an excellent fruited/dry hopped sour/wild ale! All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/funky/acidic yeast, citrus/tropical hops, grapes, and moderate pale/wheat malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, and easy to drink with the moderately acidic/tangy/tannic/drying finish, not overly lactic. Really well rounded Brett/Lacto complexity; balanced hops, Riesling grapes, and a solid pale/wheat malt backbone against acidity. A very enjoyable offering, and spot on style example as expected.
