Cloudy vanilla yellow eye reminds me of a common hefe. Good wild tart nose. Taste is quite fruity and tart, retains much of those wild aspects. Does seem to cover the alky content quite well. Second bog swig is pretty good too, its tartness does not yield even tho this brew is not as cold as it should be. Leaves a distinct & unique tingle on the palate. Sizzles. Pretty good overall beer beer experience but the mildly processed finish does tend to reveal the higher alky content. Not bad.

12 oz bottle to glass. Its a hazy orange in the glass with a quickly disappearing head. If I close my eyes, I can almost imagine its a mimosa. It then quickly changes to the aroma of a wheat beer with a fresh orange wedge. Light orange and peach citrus flavors. Definatly a bit of wine essence present mid-palate as well. Nice sour bite, I like it 🍻

12 ounce bottle. Hazy yellow gold pour. Small creamy white head. Sour malt flavor with notes of peach, apricot and lemon. Some yeasty, boozy notes in dryish finish.

Ever so slightly hazy golden and peach coloured body with a thinnish, fast-dying pure white head that starts at a single centimetre and fades to nothing. Aroma of tart lemons, tons of brine and salt and finishes with a dash of grass and flowers with not much else behind. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong lemon and grass notes with a touch of hay and flowers and ending with only a tiny bit of citrus fruits and peaches. Some light yeast and bready/grainy notes are noticeable, but more fruit and sugars and not much complexity. Aftertaste shows some mellow fruits, a touch of grass and dry malts, but also a small dose of brine and pure salt notes, but not much here. Overall, a pretty poor and very underwhelming option, especially what I was considering that it might be and showing some real sour and complex fruits, this was one-dimensional and fairly poor. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle, purchased from Harris Teeter in Arlington (Potomac Yard), Virginia on 09-June-2020 for US$1,87 sampled at my house here on the Eastern Shore of Virginia in Hacksneck, Virginia on 13-June-2020, one last time.
