Tap@TRB. Pours clear mahogany, small tan head, decent lacing. Aroma is tart cherries, a bit of funk, oak, some roastiness. Flavor is light sweet and light tart, lots of oak, roasted malts present, nutty, dark sugars as well. Light to medium body, quite interesting, but not fabulous.

Blood red and the nose is insanely floral. After drinking a lot f hibiscus beers, this is spot on flowers with lemonade and cherry. Well, this is pretty sour. Super balsamic and heart burn inducing. Lots of lemonade and creamed corn oily finish. Hibiscus is there and a touch of honey.

Dark red to brown. Touch of haze. Raisins and sour candies on the nose. Manageable sour taste. It’s not intense yet it still strips tooth enamel a bit touch of wheat, lemon, cherry and mango. It’s not intense but definitely tart. I could probably drink a glass of this one. Not mind blowing

Appearance is light orange to pale yellow against the light. Nose is interesting. Bitterness paired with peach and grapes and pears. Taste is sharp, vinegar and a tart sour intensity I’ve never encountered in a gose. It’s very grape heavy like eating unwashed green grapes by the handful. I get a touch of sea kelp and salt at the tip of the finish. It’s a very filling and flavorful gose and far being tasting like a session beer. I wouldn’t be able to drink a 750 of this.

Crimson red head. Small light head. Nose of cherries, yeasty and raspberry. Tiny bit of duct tape. Hmm. Not as sharp and acidic as the nose suggested. Tons of tart and sweet raspberry. Tough of balsamic vinegar. Very raw and fruit salad with melon, cherry and grapes. Very akin to kombucha in the mouthfeel.

Off yellow kind of golden. Looks a lot like a gueuze. Light carbonation. Nose is dominated by cinnamon a ton of huge Christmassy gingerbread and vanilla aromas. Sugar, spice and everything nice up front. Vanilla is prevalent with a minor oak finish. Throughout the taste, undertones of sharp acidic sour are there but honestly, from start to finish and even way after the finish is done, the adjuncts stay alive. If you are on the fence about sour beers and love Christmas spices, this is a beer for you. If you’re a purist sour-head who hates adjuncts, skip this one.

From tap at The Monks Kettle during "United Sours of America" (my first one from this brewery) Clear dark reddish/brown with a small head. Sour and fairly vinous aroma and taste of oak, berries and brett. Refreshing and with a soft body.

Growler shared by Don at California 10K event yesterday. Pours light borwn with no head. Aroma is sour, raspberry and leather. Med body. Flavor is sour raspberry. Excellent. Finishes sour, woody, and berry astringent (pun intended).

Tap@TRB. Pours a hazy reddish amber with a small off-white head that dissipates quickly to a ring around the glass and some lacing. Aroma is quite light, with notes of oak, fruit, touch of funk, lemon. Flavor is medium tart, light sweet, fruity, strawberry, lemon, oak, a tiny touch of something vegetal likes the stems were included. Medium body, minimal carbonation. Pretty nice, nothing amazing.

Tap@TRB. Pours hazy apricot, small off-white head dissipating quickly to a ring around the edge with some lacing on the glass. Aroma is very oaky, notes of peach, apricot, lemon. Flavor is apricot and oak forward, medium tart, minimal funk, drying in the mouth, quite fruity with apricot skin notes as well as fruit. Very light astringency. Medium body, creamy mouthfeel, minimal carbonation. Yes, this might be a bit young, but it is pretty damn good right now.
