750mL bottled 8/29/21, drunk 4/17/22. Clear, brassy-gold. Small, white head sits at cover briefly. Less stark/austere than the purple version, with a hint of juicy hop and more round fruitiness from the yeast. Lactic character seems softer/better developed. Lightly hoppy, gaining a bit of sweet maltiness, with pleasant lactic tartness and mild citrus bitterness from hop. Biscuit and cracker malt texture. Still pushing the overly dry and sour aspect (too much citrus rind character), but it's much more welcoming than the purple version.

750mL bottled 8/29/21, drunk 4/9/22. Good clarity in this pale, white-golden beer. White head is large, fully falling steadily. Austere hops and strong lactic acidity in the nose are both front and center, with malt coming in a bit sparsely in the form of hard cracker. Touch of citrus on the finish with mostly lemon and white grapefruit. Clean and no alcohol or flaw. Gaining a bit of oakiness with warming. In the mouth it's moderately soft in the texture but extremely, extremely dry, exacerbated by the acid from the hops and big bursts of lactic character. Not quite the roundness and depth, or age/lagering-induced mildness of my favorite sours. Pretty puninshingly bitter, acidic and cracker-forward.

Brewery draught, 4/7/22. Moderately hazy, copper-maize-golden with a small, white head showing low retention. Big fruity yeast notes with juicy citrus, light pine and plentiful, sumptuous malts adding honey and devil's food cake. Very creamy though there's no lactose. No flaw, twang or alcohol noted. Soft, super creamy texture with what the brewery describes as a strawberry nesquick texture/flavor combo. No lactose which is shocking, but rather a much higher Calcium addition to the water achieved this. Mega fruity, easygoing, low bitterness. Not my personal favorite flavor profile (strawberries and cream) but have to respect the absolute stunning quality of brewing again.
