Canned 7/7/23, drunk 7/28/24. Clear, bright, burnished brass-golden. Very large, off-white head, well-retained. Nose is incredibly fruity with a strong but not too punchy lacto backbone. Lightly vinous, a touch earthy, musty, cellar-like. Rustic grains. Tart, vivacious and malty with a great rusticity and lip-smacking but not overdone or punchy acidity on the finish. Seems the age has done it well, as it's mellow, malty and very fruity with just enough tartness and a good dryness and balance. All that said, this isn't barrel-aged and thus you still get a bit of powdered sugar-like quality that is common in kettle sours.

Can, illegible date, a bit on the older side, from shelf, drunk 6/4/24. Mostly clear, deep bronze. Small, off-white, yellow-tinged head sits at cover. Lovely mix of passion fruit and lactic acid in the nose. Fairly mellow at this point with no metal or older yeast component, thankfully. Passion fruit is aromatic and tastefully done. In the mouth it's juicy as hell with a lovely acidity. Brett and lacto with a tropical kick from the juicy, earthy, lightly tart passion fruit. Mellow oak, low red wine and no big tannin with no punchy acidity. Nice balance while retaining a good sour ale character.

Poured a mostly clear dark lemon-lime yellow color with a small white head. Flavor was light fruit, mild sourness. Flavor was big passion fruit tartness. Not overly sour, but pleasant tartness. At a DCBeer share.

Pint can courtesy of Explosive dog. Thanks. Pours a clear golden color with a small white head that soon recedes to a fine film. The aroma is funky with brett and sour fruits. The taste is pleasantly sour/tart with sour apples and raspberries. The palate is light ands crisp with prickly carbonation. Finishes long with lingering sour berries and some acidity. Overall: Decent enough, but the lingering acidity blew it. Paired well with a farmhouse cheese.

Can from explosivedog: pours golden with white head. Aroma is light raspberry, funk and currants. Lightly sour. Not sweet. Maybe a bit underwhelming yeast character. Some woody notes.
