Can to tulip.
Appearance: soft golden cloudiness with a finger and a quarter's worth of white frothy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: sweet to tart oak tones up front with some lemon candy; tart citrusy to bittersweet rind and some pine and dark berry-ish whiffs
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas together in a sweet to tart woody to citrusy quality; semi-dry finish of lemon candy and sweet oak
Texture: medium bodied; leaning towards being a sipper; subtle smoothness with ample tartness scaling back that smoothness a bit; good carb level
Overall: a very nicely done sour/wild ale which doesn't give off any pucker but gives me a very awesome feeling knowing how well this is brewed.

Bottle: pours hazy yellow with a white head. Aroma is citrus, fruitiness, Like lemon, berry, and lime, light funkiness. Taste is lightly tart, fruity, citrusy, a little tangy. Wonderful aftertaste. Excellent.

Tap. Murky muted yellow color with white head. Aroma is cheesy hops, pellets, a bit funk. Taste is pellets, biscuity, just a bit tart in the back. Soft thick mouthfeel with medium carbonation. Fun!
