(Bottle) Very dark brown, essentially opaque, with thin tan head. Wonderful complex aroma: chocolate, malt, pine, stone fruit. Fairly full bodied with creaminess to carbonation. Taste is complex and full and doesn’t align with any established style. The basic taste profile is a raisin / stone fruity start that develops into a chocolatey rich malty middle and on to a well hopped bitter finish. But there’s rather more than that going on. The hops are present throughout providing a clean bite for balance. There are good chocolate notes also in the long finish. Raisin flavours are present fairly consistently. The alcohol is quite well hidden but does provide some bite in the mid palate. Overall it’s a bit confusing, but in an intriguing inspiring way - I always wanted another taste, and that’s really what counts. Clever brewing.

Bottle, 13C. Black with tan head that fades to a coat. Aroma of sour cherries, chocolate, licorice. Very silky texture, low carbonation. Bitter chocolate, less cherry than the aroma, a bit of zingy brett and pepper at the end. Fine stuff. [3.8]Head better retained, some apples coming through. Hope they make this one again, it’s lovely.

Holy fucken shit fuck, Batman! i never thought I’d see a sour beer on my NZ trip, and to find one from Oz just blows me away. Bottle at Goldings Free Dive in Wellington. Murky golden yellow color, few bubbles. Aroma of sour mango, pineapple. Taste is softly sour mixed tropical fruit and citrus. It actually works.

Pours black with a quickly fading head.Nose shows funky notes, vinegar characters, cherries and chocolate. Very interesting. Like black forest cake.Flavours are not quite as impressive, its more about the roasted malt, although some acidity shows through.Could use a bit more carbonation.

(Bottle) Cloudy amber orange with no head. Distinctive aroma pretty typical for the style, but quite confronting: plenty of funk with some vinegary notes and some hints of the fruit. Light body with spritzy, fairly modest carbonation. Taste is unusual, but not as confronting as the aroma. It is a clever balance of the earthy funky wild ale flavours and the sweeter and aromatic fruit. The foretaste is dominated by the tart vinegary and oak notes, which give way to passionfruit and some mango flavours which tail off into a rather pleasant tart finish. An unusual beer that works really well.

Sehr fruchtiger Säureantrunk, wenig bitter. Intensive Mangonoten, vollmundig, passend bitter. Die Säuerlichkeit ist breit gefächert und nicht übermäßig intensiv. Ausgewogen, die Fruchtnoten nehmen mit der Zeit nur wenig ab. Spritzig, süffig, super! 7/11/12/12/9/12

From a 330ml bottle on 18/6/2013. Pours a murky peach colour with no discernible head. Smells like fermenting passionfruit. It’s very sweet in mouth, with more passionfruit and some mango on display, balanced by a dry, tart,fermented sourness. Medium body and moderately carbed. Has a bit of character but in the end, it’s just a bit lacking. I’ll give ’em, points for trying something different, but not Moon Dog’s best by a long shot.
