Bottle. Pours very hazy golden orange, large creamy white head, dissipates fairly slowly, nice lacing. Aroma is tropical, mango, passionfruit, azacca dry hopping, pine. Flavor is light tart, light bitter, tropical, hints of grass. A bit pithy. Light plus body, very high, offputting, carbonation. Smells wonderful; taste and mouthfeel don’t quite deliver.

Bottle from Kelly and Paul, thanks! Pours a hazy golden color with a decent but short lived bubbly white head. Yup salty and lemony right out of the gate or bottle if you will. Light earthy fink rounds it out nicely. Hints of light citrus, lots of lemony tart and the salt balances nicely. Pretty damn tasty salty sour beer

Bottle shared by Emily. Aspirin dry aroma. Big foamy head. Funky cheesy US sour tones. Really unrefined, but quite enjoyable still, at least the plum tones. Juicy, and gets juicier the more you sip at it. Leathery sour.

Rating #5800! Super hazy golden and lightly copper coloured body with a thick, four centimetre tall glowing tan head and a very hazy tint that shows up after some of the sediment has found it’s way to the bottom. Aroma of super funky brett, sour funk, light fruits, pungent yeast, bread, grain and a bit more grass and herbal scents - very pungent in the nose with some spices at the tail end. Medium to Full-bodied; Strong rich grassy and perfumey flavours up front with a big dose of yeast and brett that accompanies some sour fruity flavours, but leaves the palate mostly bready with tons of complex flavours. Aftertaste shows some brett, sour grapes, yeast, bread, grain, alcohol warmth, light spices like white pepper, coriander seed and lavender and a bit of noticeable lower alpha acid hops on the tail end. Overall, a super complex beer that is nice and rich and much more deeper in the malt, alcohol and yeast department than I had expected. Definitely worth trying and sampling if you can find this, given it’s extreme complexities throughout, but not a great beer in terms of taste or flavours for the style. I sampled this 37,5 cL split bottle purchased from Super Liqour Mart in Littleton, Colorado on 05-June-2014 for US$7,99 sampled at home in Washington a few minutes before leaving on a train for New York on 01-December-2016.
