750mL bottled 8/29/21, drunk 4/9/22. Good clarity in this pale, white-golden beer. White head is large, fully falling steadily. Austere hops and strong lactic acidity in the nose are both front and center, with malt coming in a bit sparsely in the form of hard cracker. Touch of citrus on the finish with mostly lemon and white grapefruit. Clean and no alcohol or flaw. Gaining a bit of oakiness with warming. In the mouth it's moderately soft in the texture but extremely, extremely dry, exacerbated by the acid from the hops and big bursts of lactic character. Not quite the roundness and depth, or age/lagering-induced mildness of my favorite sours. Pretty puninshingly bitter, acidic and cracker-forward.
