Murky reddish brown pour with no head. Tart dark berries, vinegar, lactic acid, and probably some other stuff that I can't really detect due to the acidic harshness. It's beers like this one that make me want to give up trying US sours altogether.

Hazy golden pour with a thin and lively white head. Notes of unripe peaches, lemons, vinegar, lactic acid, gooseberries. Very interesting flavours, but, like most US-style sours, goes a bit overboard with the sourness. It does get better once it warms up, though.
Definitely beer/wine hybrid but strayed too close to wine, it's basically a bottle of wine with carb, nose is riesling, front is riesling, booze is riesling. Should have blended a little more beer and a little less riesling juice. Certainly extreme+chunks

Hazy golden color with a medium foamy white head that recedes gradually to a film. Partial rings of lace. Aroma of herbal hops, citrus and malt. Medium body with a dank hoppy character with notes of mildly funky citrus and bready malt. The finish is tart and funky citrus and hops. Pretty good all around.
