Draft at District Tap House. Clear pour with a nice, sheeting white head and some streaky, drippy lace. Lemon pledge and lemon rind. Doughy malt. Some grass. Very clean and easy drinking, almost thin, which is insane for this ABV level. Finishes with a tingle. Overall, feels a little convoluted and didn't quite work as well as I would have wanted.

Draught at Lulu’s, 1/15/17.
Thoroughly hazy, pale, brassy-golden body is topped by a small, but steady, white head.
Juicy, tropical fruits rise up in the nose with only light, honey-like malts behind for backing. Soft, rich and fruity, there’s no sign of resin, though white grapefruit persists on the finish, somewhat. Little bit of white grape and biscuit dries out the finish, as well. No alcohol or flaw.
Big burst of fruity, juicy hops mix with softly sweet malts and a low but ample carbonation. Through the middle it picks up a heavy grapefruit-laden bitterness that turns strongly acidic on the finish, seemingly mixing with alcohol and really destroys the brightness and levity of the beer. Even after repeated sips, warming, etc...the palate never accustoms. Just an odd, resinous, almost stinging, perfumey bitterness. A shame.

Canned 12/14/16, drunk 1/15/17.
Blood red body with dark crimson hues and a good clarity with a small, pink-flecked beige head showing low retention.
Poignant cranberry, cherry, apple and moderate lactic acidity in the nose with some very light bread/biscuit and honey behind it to balance gently. Not a whole lot more going on, but the fruit complements the lactic acidity nicely and is well-attenuated, while being quite aromatic and authentic.
Similar structure to the flavor which shows a pleasing amount of maltiness adding soft textures and body and providing a good base for the strong tartness and acidity persisting on the finish. Cranberry, lemon, cherry, raspberry, apple...very complex fruit notes and the lactic acidity isn’t overdone/dominant. Simple fruited kettle sour, but it’s very drinkable.
