Bottle from EricAndersNavy, thanks! Blonde, head disappears almost immediately. Vinous aroma with oak and traubenzucker. Soft tart flavor with citrus, oak. traubenzucker and melon. Thinnish, but very well balanced.

Poured from a 2013 vintage 22 oz bottle. Aroma is fairly mellow. Light acidity and citrus notes. Medium light white wine characteristics with hints of oak. Light grain notes. Hints of pineapple and stone fruit. Pours a hazy, pale golden straw color with a medium sized, medium thin, white head that recedes steadily to the edges where it lingers for a bit. Faint lacing and no legs. Flavor has a medium light acidity that isn’t harsh at all. Some light sweetness with light grain notes. Acidity is displayed through lemon notes as well as some light pineapple. Light white wine notes with faint oak. Hints of golden raisins and stone fruit. Mouthfeel is medium light bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice sour beer though its character is very light. Easy drinking and definitely a nice base for fruit or blending.

Bottle @ Steve_0’s house. Thanks! Pours a slightly hazy yellow orange appearance with a white head. Aroma is cheese curds / aged parmesan, lemon, funk, and lactic acid. Soft sourness in the mouth. Some tropical and citrus fruit in the mount along with some more cheese / lactic acid notes. The aroma seemed a little aggressive for me but the flavor was enjoyable enough. Low sweetness and bitterness. Not bad.

Bottle shared during the satellite Travlr 10K tasting at CBC Clerkenwell - London. Pours unclear yellow-gold with a foamy white head. The aroma holds rich lemon, light funk, popcorn, sweat. Light sweet flavor with bracing tart lemons, white pepper, cereal, pale wood. Light bodied with average, spritzy carbonation. Strongly acidic on the finish with cleansing lemon, soft funky edges, light bitter straw. Bracing and a bit burning with the high acidity. A bit rough around the edges and perhaps a touch young. Fair overall.
