On tap at the source.
Pours an opaque brick red color with a bubbly white head that slowly dissipates. Lemony citrus and cranberry tartness with a hint of stone fruit in my nose anyhow. Light bready malt underneath to counter. Tart refreshing kind of easy to drink.

Brewery draught, 1/12/25.
Moderately hazy, medium-pink. Small, pinkish head.
Nicely aged nose with no punchy lactic character. Smells like hibiscus or prickly pear. But not overdone and quite authentic. Not sugary.
Juicy, soft, gently sweet, ample, not punchy fruit acidity, mild lactic notes and great malt depth with good attenuation. This is a really nicely done kettle sour and that's not easy to do in a world of millions of these things that are a dime a dozen and so uninspired. Great fruit, texture, flavor and obvious time of aging. Love the amount of flavor for its size, too.
