Tap at GABF. Pours a hazy orange gold with medium white head that lasts. The aroma is grape, oak, cantaloupe, funk. Thin body, oak, cantaloupe, nice sourness, very good.

Cloudy and pale. Aroma is strong kettle sour. Very tart but a bit of butyric. Cantaloupe very understated. Harsh sour finish.

GABF 2015. Hazy orange, it actually looks like cantaloupe. It is extremely sour to the point I can hardly drink it and that is unusual for me. i wonder if this was an unintentional infection. There is cantaloupe in the flavor and that is unusual. I think something went wrong here.

Sample at GABF 09/26/2015, thanks to my sis for assistance with note-taking. Murky golden color with a thin white head that evaporates quickly. Spotty lacing. Aroma of fruit, yeast and malt. Light-bodied with a sweet and sour cantaloupe character, with some yeast and biscuit malt in the background. The finish is fruity with a cantaloupe aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
