Can from the LCBO. Pours a cloudy yellow with a small white head. Big lactic nose, lots of sour citrus notes, light cereals, aroma is promising. Mouth feel. Is thin, carb is extremely soft. Finish is not as tart as expected, the tartness falls off, citrus fades, the aroma is promising, but the beer falls flat in the end.

This sour poured a medium yellow colour with a big, bright white head. Not bad lacing. Scents include hops, hops and more hops. Smells like the IBU’s are about 220. Scents of spruce and a little citrus. First swig was not as bad as expected. Flavours of sour citrus, sweet cereal and fruit juice. Finish is slightly sour with a light hop bitterness lingering.

Pours a hazy light golden-yellow colour with a frothy-foamy white cap, quickly going down, but some soapy lace and ring is left. Fresh herbal hop nose with hints of sweetness, like sugars. A bit of sourness in the taste with very light hops. Lots of tartiness, yeast lingering. Nicely blended, session dry-hopped sour brew.

So it's a session, so you expect a little thinness, but a lack of flavour would be a problem, but not with this. Bright lemony start with the citrus hops and mild sour tang beautifully married right up front. Then resin roughness with a little pine building as the beer linger. For a session very nice. Thanks!

Can from the LCBO. Slightly hazy pale gold under a large lingering white head that laces well. Nose is citrus, tropical fruit, some funk, light salt and a touch of honey. Light sweet with a light+tartness and a touch of salinity in the finish. Mouth is medium- with soft carbonation. Quaffable. 7/4/6+/3/14
