Flaska från SB drucken med ölföreningen. Välavvägd syra, lime, ingefära och lite enbär, lätt och ganska clean och inte riktigt vanlig Crooked Stave-klass. Men helt klart gott.

750 bottle. pours a medium brown color with a smallish beige head that soon recedes to a fine ring. The aroma is strong and is dominated by the raspberries, there is also some oak in the aroma. The taste is tart/sour mixed berries in a mild ale base. The palate is full and the carbonation soft. Finishes long with lingering sour berries. Overall: Decent sour ale,

Bottle pour at The Whale Outpost.
Golden hued, oily, light froth.
Serious cooked down apricot & mango, margarine, tokaji grape dessert wine, lots of raw oak on the nose. A little cheesy once it warms.
As expected, incredibly sour. Rounded apricot, muscadine twang, jolly rancher sweet but extra aecitic. Lacquered dried mango. Warming belly.
Tasty, just too sharp & difficult.

0.355l can from Beer Republic. Aroma is vinous, funky and floral with apple notes. Pours cloudy pale brown color with thin quickly diminishing tan-like head and sparkling appearance. Taste starts tart vinous and cider-like with spicy note, following is mild sweet malty and woody with smooth but crisp mouthfeel. Medium body, oily texture and lively carbonation in palate.

A- Mild gourd, faint pie spice.
F- Malt, bready, gourd, faint spice, clove, cinnamon, allspice.
T- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, malty finish.
O- Not huge on flavor. Mild pumpkin flavor and the spice is generally subued. Okay, but expect much more from Crooked Stave. Might be better as a sour.
