22oz bottle. I don't think this was meant to be sour. All those barrels did it. Means this has none of the Brett character they talk about. Also, the label tells me nothing about it being sour. Brown color. Clear. It's a thin leafy wet barrel like light sourness.

Can. Pours a hazy orange with a big head and aromas of underripe pineapple and mango. Flavor is clean, but the oat sure shines through mid palate. Hops are bright and crisp up front and resinous on the tail end. Nice beer.

Cask at GBBF 2015 - London. Pours clear gold with a frothy, white head. Pithy citrus in the aroma, rind, grainy pale bread. Medium sweet flavour with notes of sugary bread, orange rind, grains. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Grassy and sugary in the finish, more ripe citrus, light oily pine. Not the best.

Got in a trade with spelingchampeon. 16 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 6/14/2018. Pours very hazy deep golden orange/amber color with a 1 finger fairly dense and rocky off white head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, mango, melon, berries, citrus peel/rind, light pepper/pine, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt notes; with solid strength. Taste of tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, mango, melon, berries, citrus peel/rind, light pepper/pine, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Mild pine, zesty, herbal, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, mango, melon, berries, citrus peel/rind, light pepper/pine, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt flavors; with a solid malt/bitterness balance, and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, creamy/bready/grainy, and lightly sticky mouthfeel that is great. Minimal warming alcohol for 6.7%. Overall this is a very nice NEIPA. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink with the mildly bitter/drying finish, great soft feel. Nice Galaxy/Citra profile. Very juicy and lightly dank/earthy hop complexity; balanced wheat/oat/malts, not overly sweet/heavy from lingering dryness. A very enjoyable offering, and well made style example.

On tap at The Malted Barley, pours a clear pale copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out lightly sweet blueberries, with a little bready malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with subdued tart blueberries. Not much depth here - quite faded, but it's clean enough. Meh.
