Bottle thanks to Joe. Pours a hazy pale yellow with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a great funky barnyard note that is supported by sour light fruits and a bit of wine in the finish. Flavor has more much acid coming through with a bit light fruit tartness, earthy funk and a dry wine finish.

Bottle: Poured a clear bright golden color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention but minimal lacing. Aroma consists of sour and tart notes with some light oak also perceptible. Taste is also dominated by tart notes with some sour notes and oak also perceptible and well balanced acidity which is not overly dominant. Body is about average with good carbonation. Nothing spectacular about his beer but well brewed overall with good balance and limited acidity.

On tap at brewpub. Pours a cloudy yellow with a small off white head. The aroma is sour fruit and cherry. Thin mouthfeel with a strong sour fruit and nice lingering tart finish. Easy to drink a very impressive sour ale from Freetail.

Bottle 35,5 cl. Courtesy of bu11zeye. Pours yellow with a slight haze and a tiny white head. Sweet and tart fruity aroma. Medium body, yeasty with some medicinal notes and a sophisticated Chardonnay-like tartness. Strange cardamom notes. Baking yeast. Interesting, but clearly an "inexperienced " Sour. 150311

Bottle thanks to Tim. Pours cloudy golden apricot. Nose of grape skin, apricot seed, sweet and tart fruits, and musky basement aromas. Taste is apple core, mildly sweet apricot and grape skin followed by tart fermented kiwi and yeast. Very nice well balanced brew.

2010 Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a hazy golden body and a medium sized bright white head. Aromas of honey, sage, pineapple, herbal notes, white wine (sauvignon blanc or a super spicy american chard), anise, vinous notes, wood. Very complex, different and nice. Taste is very nice. Strong lactic sourness, medium pedio notes. Light brett funkiness, but huge pineapple; Brett C characteristics. Pineapple acidity as well. Quick soda like finish (like white wine with club soda). Lively carbonation. Lingering honeysuckle flavors, some nectarine as well. Quenching. Very proud of this Texas sour! Please make more!
