Terrible looking. Pungent lime nose. The odd combo of vanilla and lime doesn't work, quite unpleasant.

473 ml can. Pours a bright amber with light head. Aromas of farmyard leaning towards horse piss, leather, sharp passionfruit, a bit of oak, and sharp wheaty malts. Flavor is less lambic and more kettle sour with citrus, vinegar, salt and sharp wheaty malts. OK

Can pour at East Side Beer Fest. Pours murky orange with a minimal head. A touch of chili on the nose. Flavour has intense chili pepper and dry herbal grass. Very hot. Neat, but not particularly good.

Poured from 473mL can. Hazy orange gold with small white head. Medium tart vinegar with stone fruit quality, mild oak. Better than expected.

Storm was doing their “lambic” in the 90s, long before anybody else in North America was making sours. Before La Folie, before New Glarus. So this is a legit throwback.
Hazy amber. Aroma of lambic and peach. Taste is slightly acetic sour base. Lots of fruit though again I’m perceiving this more as peach and sour pineapple. Passionfruit only in the finish. Quite tart. Decent.

Cask days 2011.
Good amber pour, small rocky bubbly head. Nice pine, and citrus hops, a little bit of bready malts. Clean finish, big bitter finish, with a big dose of resinous pine.

473mL can. Pours dark brown with moderate beige head. Aroma has strong nutmeg and eggnog underneath. Flavour has again, a dominant nutmeg character, slightly chemical, coffee and vanilla. Weirdly bitter. Not great.
