On tap @ Avery Sour Fest 2014. Pours a reddish brown appearance with a brown head. Tannic, dark grape, heavy aroma with some vinegar. Blackberry / raspberry / black cherry flavor with some acetic acid, vanilla, and wood. Finishes very tart. A bit strong for me, but not horrible.

On tap @ Avery Sour Fest 2014. Pours a cloudy, light yellow appearance with a white head. Aroma was pretty dull- maybe a touch of corn - along with some lemon twanginess and a hint of lactic. Actually quite tart flavor with a nice dose of lactic acid. Some pineapple and lemony notes. Finishes pretty dry and tart. Low sweetness and bitterness. Pretty good.

On tap @ Avery Sour Fest 2014. Pours a dark golden orange, slightly hazy appearance with little head. The aroma was just plain horrendous. Acetone, nail polish remover, and heavy chemicals in the nose. I was nervous to even taste the brew. I suppose the flavor was slightly better but it was also incredibly bad. There was maybe a hint of fruit, but it was otherwise an acetic acid bomb full of chemicals. Disgustingly bad. Worst of the festival. It actually was one of the more talked about brews there but not for good reasons.

Can from a six pack I brought back from Illinois. Poured a slightly dark straw color with a medium sized white solid head. Aroma was some notes of grain, straw, lemon. Notes of bready and yeast notes are present too. Flavor was light lemon zest notes, yeast, earthy hop character. Pretty clean and easy to drink - not as refreshing as I’d hope, but light enough and has a pretty clean finish.
