This easy drinking NW style sour ale was aged in rum barrels for 20 months with tangerine zest, then blended with our Apricot Ale. Sweet aromas of tangerine and rum are the first thing you notice as you draw your glass near. A quenching sweet citrus, then rum spice take turns dancing on your palate. Rich rum spice and warmth lead to a lingering sweet tangerine finish like warn sand. Most rum beers only go to 10, ours goes to 11!

3/XII/17 - on tap @ Billies Craft Beer Festival - BB: n/a (2017-2090) Thanks to the Belgian, Dutch and German ratebeerians for sharing today's beers!

Clear orange beer, small creamy off-white head, little stable, bit adhesive, leaving some lacing in the glass. Aroma: very funky, dirty, infected, urinals, weird and bad stuff going on here. Really, what's going on with all those Cascade beers? Worst "brett" ever... MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: very bitter start, incredibly acidic, way too sour, metallic, lemon juice, bitter tannins, bah. Aftertaste: more of the same, very acidic, metallic, vinegar. Seriously... A lambic lover as I am, I cannot for the world imagine how anyone can actually enjoy this kind of infected stuff...

Draught @ Cascade, alongside the other version. Listed as 2015. Medium amber. Just a touch of haze. Some fruitiness but without a lot of nuance. Touch of diacetyl, and the finish is a bit tart.
