On tap at the source.
Pours an opaque brick red color with a bubbly white head that slowly dissipates. Lemony citrus and cranberry tartness with a hint of stone fruit in my nose anyhow. Light bready malt underneath to counter. Tart refreshing kind of easy to drink.

Pours a hazy lemon yellow with a good sized off white head that persists. Earthy tropical citrus and stone fruits with a bit of gritty bread to counter. Not bad.

Brewery draught, 1/12/25.
Moderately hazy, medium-pink. Small, pinkish head.
Nicely aged nose with no punchy lactic character. Smells like hibiscus or prickly pear. But not overdone and quite authentic. Not sugary.
Juicy, soft, gently sweet, ample, not punchy fruit acidity, mild lactic notes and great malt depth with good attenuation. This is a really nicely done kettle sour and that's not easy to do in a world of millions of these things that are a dime a dozen and so uninspired. Great fruit, texture, flavor and obvious time of aging. Love the amount of flavor for its size, too.

Brewery draught, 1/12/25.
Heavily hazy, paler brass-blonde. Small, white head to clumps on edge.
Juicy, fruity, citrus, soft and mellow with light biscuit and hints of honey-like base malt. Good strength of aroma without any punchy hop. Quite yeasty; tons of fruit ester.
Ample bitterness, good malt depth and good attenuation. Soft and lightly juicy, lightly citrusy. Again quite yeasty. Maybe could use a bit longer in secondary, though maybe it's just a super low floccing yeast. Lots of light pine bitterness and grapefruit retronasal.

Brewery draught, 1/12/25.
Rather hazy for a lager. Muted brass-maize. Small, spotty, white head, lower retention.
Clean nose with biscuity malts, noticeable lager yeast, light mineral. Herbal hops are light to moderate without being overdone. Little/no acidity from hop.
Soft, malty, nice and deep with good attenuation. Biscuit, honey, soft mineral, light herb, good yeast character. Impressive! Love the low reliance on hop. This is featuring the malt and yeast much more prominently. Very clean
