750 mL bottle poured, shared by Tcon. Thanks! Bright golden pour, mostly clean. Plenty of cinnamon comes though right away on aroma and flavor. Nice peach tart flavor, acidic, flavorful. Sour bite up front, moderate funk. Easy drinking sour as an overall. Another unique, fun, amd tasty sour from these guys.

Peach pie, or cobbler, or whatever. Nicely oaky front and sweet finish.
