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!

Hazy golden color. The aroma is fruity and sour. The mouthfeel is strong, very sour, with powerful wood notes, vinous, fruity, with layers of complexity, culminating in a warm alcoholic final.
Excellent Sour.

On tap at City Beer. It pours an orange color with an off white head. The aroma is amazing with apricot preserves, tang, a little little oak and bourbon. The flavor is tangerine juice, apricot preserves, oak and a little rum-like spirits. Lots of oak and bourbon in finish. Holy cow, this was lip smacking tasty with a complex acid and alcohol profile.
