Tap at Sweet Mullets. Translucent edged brown-black body. Beige head. Nice aroma, pleasant taste. A little doughier, maltier, less hop forward than typical. Solid example nonetheless, captures the style well enough. Doughy brown sugar. OK.

Tap at Rays. Chunky unfiltered brown-black body. Roasty, doughy, oaty. # star stuff, in line with most other Sweet Mullets beers. A touch of fruity undercurrents. Average stuff, not so impressive. Too yeasty, thick.

Tap at Vintage. Unfitlered brown body. Another oddball sour from SM. Has some mild white wine notes in the aroma, oak, some sour orange. A touch oily, leathery. Mellow cask-like carbonation. Some woody cherry, red wine notes. At times not unlike an Oud Bruin or Flemish red. There is an earthy, almost spiced quality to it, hard to put my finger on it. Grows on me, nice berry tinge. Incorporates the sour well, but coudl use some balance.

Great Taste of the Midwest 2015. In the real ale tent. Moderately sour, lots of balsamic, some malt flavor, not hop character. Dark brown color. Some dried fruit character but I am disappointed I did not pick up on wine specifically, besides the balsamic.
