Bottle courtesy of Kenny, thank you sir! Hazy to cloudy yellow color. Nice aroma of fresh and floral herbs. Taste is softly sour citrus, soft carbonation. Highly drinkable. Great summer beer.

Draught @ Ginger Man. Clear golden yellow with very small foamy whitish head, acidic aroma, low carbonation, sour taste with little bitterness, thin body, long acidic finish. The dry hopping doesn’t seem to be very effective.

Draft at Ginger Man. Clear pour. Gold in color. Lacto and other yeast on the aroma and flavor. Finishes dry, a little tart, and a bit funky. Pretty nice.

750 ml bottle from Sparrow. Murky yellow pour with a good sized white head and some strong, streaky lacing. Yeasty and fruity aroma. Leans tart and sour on the flavor with a nice bit of light sweetness too. Nice drinkablity. Lively carbonation. Finishes a bit tart. This is pretty much exactly what I'd expected from a fruited sour with lacto and Transmitter's saison yeast. Quite nice. Develops lots of flavor. When I picked this up in the store this is what I thought I would get.

Location: 750ml bottle from Sparrow - Downtown, 8/16/16
Aroma: Bright, funky aroma, lots of pepper / spice and earth, some lemon zest
Appearance: Pours a cloudy orange color with a frothy off-white head and fairly heavy lacework
Flavor: The taste is lemon up-front, with a spice and funk mid-palate through close
Palate: The body is medium, with a nice, spicy, funk, and dry feel / finish to it
Overall Impression: Transmitter with another really nice yeast-forward beer. Has a really nice flavor from the yeast, a nice brett-style dryness, and just a really solid flavor profile overall. I like this beer quite a bit. Well-made, complex, and incredibly drinkable.

The Sampler, Brooklyn tap: pours cloudy yellow with a large white head. Aroma is a lot of citrus. Taste is sour, not excessively. Lot of citrus. Lemon quite powerful. Easy drinking. Well done.
