Van Dayum! Sour Red Ale from Blue Owl Brewing

6/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6
Pours murky amber. The head is quite fizzy, and of short retention. The aroma is is light caramel, a dash of tropical fruit and vinegar. Cannot quite put my finger on it, but reminded me of one of my grill marinades. Overall though of moderate intensity. Taste is sour, fruity, quite dry. Well carbonated with a body a bit on the light side. Okay.
