12 ounce at the brewery - Amber pour with a soapy head - nose and flavor are husky, unclean - raw sugars, toffee, moderate pepper, raisin, dark bread - watery texture - fair complexity, but the burnt grain husk character dominates.

Pours hazy straw into a tulip. White head with medium retention recedes to hug rim. Sour funky lemon aromas. Soft with tart lemon, dusty yeast, and mild funk turning to marshmallow in the lasting finish.

Very hazy golden coloured body with a smallish, large-bubbled pure white head, only a centimetre tall. Aroma of pale wheat, malt, yeast, brett, grain, sour funk, light citrus and way more brett and wild yeasts. Light-bodied; Strong mellow grassy, herbal, citrus, yeastie, sour, lactic flavours dominate with nothing too deep or pungent, but a lot of complexities. Aftertaste is just as mild with a little more sweetness from fruit that is pronounced, along with the brett and wild yeast flavours that are dominant along with very light malts. Overall, an interesting beer that has a lot of complexity, but no real deep or pungent flavours. A smooth and easy-drinking beer, with a touch of a bretty kick, but not much of anything really, throughout this beer. Nothing bad with it, just not enough flavour to make this great. I sampled this 37,5 cL split bottle purchased from Mr. B’s Wine & Spirits in Denver, Colorado on 18-March-2016 for US$6,99 sampled at home in Washington on 03-November-2016.

Bottle drunk 10/5/16.
Minimal haze to the light, pinkish-tinged, cherry red body. Rose-tinted white head atop is medium-sized and shows moderate retention.
Lovely, funky and cherry-laden nose shows the meaty, pulpy, pit-heavy Montmorency goodness, soft, well-developed yeast/bacteria funk and a hint of sulfur, which is quite endearing. Light black pepper and medicinal notes from the cherry, as well, with seemingly well-attenuated malts and light honey and biscuit character. No alcohol or flaw.
In the mouth, it has low but tight carbonation and a soft, malty, yet well-attenuated body. Cherries are nicely dry and lightly tart, adding a fleshy, soft, mildly sweet flavor and lots of malic acid, skin tannin and peppery pit qualities. Tartness from the yeast/bacteria is well-controlled/developed. Great subtle funk to it and honestly reminds me of a lambic. One of the better cherry sours I’ve had in a while.
