Completely clear golden and lightly peach tinted body with almost no head at all, and what is there fades immediately. Aroma of, yes, you guessed it, very subdued and simplistic tart notes with raspberries, grain, light brett and pure acidic, vinegary notes that dominate without much support. Light-bodied; Super mellow malt notes with soured and tart elements, a dash of dry wheat without any spices, but also a touch of the fructose or sweet flavours from fruit with a hint of bananas, perhaps from the yeast on the finish. Aftertaste is dry, quite tart and super subdued and simplistic without any outlandish flavours or complexity in the slightest bit. Overall, a nice and, as the name implies, ridiculously simplistic beer with a soured, tart flavour throughout with some wheat and no substantial malts that make this an easy-drinking, super simple summer beer that still has a tart and acidic flavour throughout. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Whole Foods in New York (TriBeCa), New York on 13-August-2018 for US$2,99 sampled a bit over a year later at home in Washington on 20-October-2019.

On tap @ The Gingerman. This is a cloudy one, yellowish bright straw golden in color and the little white head that came in the pour is quickly gone. Smells nice and mildly fruity sour. A bit grainy aroma also. Hay, grains and soft old sorrel. Only minimal lemonic. Tastes really good, not sour really more tartish and definitely fruity. Thin oily in the mouth and it's below average on the carbonation. Zesty lime, mildly refreshing. Lacks a tad sourness imo but it's a good quenching one non the less. 17.06.2015

Draft at Ginger Man NYC. It pours cloudy gold with a thick white head. The nose is earthy, dirty, slightly funky, lime zest, over-ripe, stone fruits and damp leaves. The taste is sour, lime, some acidity, sherbet, limeade, marmalade, earthy funk and cracker with lightly acidic linger. Light - medium body, fine carbonation and slightly sticky mouth - feel. Simple sour as the name says, but enjoyable enough.
