Brewed with pilsner and wheat malt and gently hopped with German Huell Melon. We fermented and matured this batch atop of lees from Primordia in oak puncheons for 18 months. Consider this an extension of the Primordia family...

750ml bottle pours out golden topped with a fizzy head. Nose is nice citrus some passion fruit and a big tart sour kick. Taste is more of the nice citrus passion mix and plenty tart sour notes.

750ml (thx, Ryan!) @ Matt's new place. Appearance: hazy pale copper with a white head. Aroma: some rustic notes, a bit of smoky malts. Taste: along the same lines, lemony finish. Overall: ok, I wish it would be more sophisticated.

Hazy, looks dull. A bit fizzy and not a lot of head. The aroma has light pedio, touch of wood, delicate floral hopping. Tart palate, somewhat acetic, also a bit wheaty. It's fairly woody, less pedio on the palate. A bit sharp, lemony. Oak leaves tannins on the finish. Decent sour ale.

750mL bottle, pours a hazy orange with a medium white head. Aroma has plenty of oak, gentle tangy hops, and subdued bugs. Flavour is moderately acidic, with plenty of sour lemon tang, subdued bugs, and a hint of oak. A bit too acidic and puckering for my tastes -- really hits you in the side of the mouth with that sweet lemon tang. Not all that complex, just quite acidic and puckering on the finish. Decent but underwhelming.
