Lots of lemon, and a little funky hay. Clear golden pour with ok head. Super acidic finish--acidic wild yeast kind of overtakes any of the dry hopping here. Tap at brewery.

Poured from 473mL can. Hazed medium dark gold with white head. Nose of wood and pepper. Taste of bugs, citrus, floral, and wood with some decent carbonation. Not bad.

473mL can, pours a clear bright golden with a small white head. Nose is somewhat minerally and black peppery, with some light bugs, bright lemon, floral dry hopping, and seltzery notes. Flavour has a surprisingly nice buggy character for the style, with bright lemon, mineraly notes, medium citrusy tartness, light floral dry hopping, and light herbaceous (almost pickle-y) notes. The aggressive carbonation is perfectly fitting, accentuating the tartness and mineraly character nicely. Most attempts at DH sours are lame kettle sours with no complexity, but this one stands out.

Dull gold with just a slight haze. Very thin head. Wood and bugs jump out the most from the assertive aroma, with lemony accents. On the palate, this one's tart, lemony, floral, complex bugginess, the hops lending a light bitterness, the wood lending tannins, and then there's some acetic sharpness at the back. Complex, nuanced sour, but it drinks beautifully. Wild Ambition is back!
