On tap at GTOM. Pours a hazy gold with small white head that lasts. The aroma is ginger and lemon. Thin body, ginger soda, lime zest, nice tartness, very good.

12 ounce bottle into tulip glass, bottled on 5/8/2018. Pours slightly hazy medium golden yellow 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 fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of tart/sour lemon, lime, ginger, orange, peach, pear, red/green apple, melon, white grape/wine, hay, straw, grass, honey, wheat, cracker, light lacto funk, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/acidic yeast, ginger, honey, and moderate pale/wheat malt notes; with great strength. Taste of tart/sour lemon, lime, ginger, orange, peach, pear, red/green apple, melon, white grape/wine, hay, straw, grass, honey, wheat, cracker, light lacto funk, and yeast earthiness. Light-moderate lactic tartness and light yeast/ginger spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of tart/sour lemon, lime, ginger, orange, peach, pear, red/green apple, melon, white grape/wine, hay, straw, grass, honey, wheat, cracker, light lacto funk, and yeast earthiness on the finifh for a good bit. Awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/acidic yeast, ginger, honey, and moderate pale/wheat malt flavors; with an awesome malt/tartness balance; and zero puckering flavors after the finish. Fairly crisp/clean finishing. Light-moderate increasing dryness from tartness. Medium carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately grainy/acidic, and lightly sticky mouthfeel that is fantastic. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.5%. Overall this is an outstanding spiced sour ale! All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/acidic yeast, ginger, honey, and moderate pale/wheat malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink; with the mellowly acidic/drying finish, never overly lactic. Great fruity lacto complexity, moderate ginger/honey flavors, and solid pale/wheat malts against acidity. A highly enjoyable offering, and spot on style example. Very impressive for a kettle sour.
