Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma is moderately peach forward with some other stone fruit, tropical fruit and lighter citrus notes. Some red grapes notes and light wine notes with light oak. Pours a hazy, dull, golden straw color with a small, thin, white head that recedes quickly and disappears. No lacing or legs. Flavor is moderately acidic with moderately strong peach notes and some light sweetness. Light apricot notes as well with a bit of tropical fruit, melon and citrus. Medium light red grapes and wine notes with light oak. Mouthfeel is medium light bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a pretty decent beer. Nope fruity notes, though a bit of a candy note to it. Acidity isn't too sharp. Nice barrel characteristics.

Poured from a 375 ml bottle. Aroma is rather apricot forward but with a candy note to it that has a bit of an artificial character to it. Light buttery note, possibly from the fruit, but it could be diacetyl. Light citrus and pineapple notes. Pours a hazy, somewhat dull, gold color with a medium large, pillowy and creamy, white head that recedes quickly and disappears. No lacing or legs. Flavor is fairly acidic with some citrus and pineapple notes, but also a straight lactic character. Moderate apricot notes, very juicy and lacking the buttery artificial note that is in the aroma. Mouthfeel is light bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a decent sour. The aroma is a bit offensive, but the flavor is fine.

Sample at beer meets wood last weekend. Light purple in color with a thin bubbly white head that dissipates quickly. Earthy tarty fruity funky with bits of sweet fruit. I'm sure I've ever had a boysenberry but they seem pretty tasty fermented and soured.
