Bottle.
Little white head. Clear golden color.
Barnyard funk and wet hay. Lots of stone fruit. Peachy. Red wine and oak notes. Seems to be wine barrel aged. Faint citrus. Grapes.
Very enjoyable. This held up well

Hazy golden color with a bit of foam. Aroma has light brett funk and unripe stonefruits. Taste is tart and acidic with unripe stonefruits, lemon but also aspirin on the finish. Light body, medium plus carbonation. Dry and refreshing but a bit too medicinal.

Poured from a 750mL bottle into a Lost Abbey Teku. Acquired in a trade.
Pours a clear-ish sunshine yellow body at first but is pretty hazy on the last pour as the sediment is disturbed.
Aromas of peach and a definite tartness, oak and grain in the back seat.
On the tongue is a light-to-medium tartness balanced by subtle but ever present sour peach notes, not super dry with a tad bit of sweetness. Follow through is quenching and crisp, finished by a light stone fruit flavor. Very refreshing on the tongue with medium-
High carbonation and an easy crispness that begs for another sip.
Overall an extremely balanced sour peach ale. Went perfectly with this hot summer day.

Had from a 750ml bottle at the lost abbey brewery. This is a brilliant collaboration of styles between lost abbey and wicked weed that brought out the best from each. Tart with peach flavor on the back of the palette to finish out. Well made and well balanced.

I'm a sour beer fan, so this beer came in remarkably high in scoring.
Brett was mild enough to enjoy the overall taste and aroma.
Well done, Brewers!!

Almost worth the $42 price tag...but damn my bank is now broken! But how could I resist a collab between two of my favorite breweries?? And it did not disappoint. Sadly though, unless they come out with maybe a 12 ounce option, this is a one-and-done for me.

Poured out a slightly hazy, light orange color with a small white head. It smelled of peach and a little bit of oak. Nice sweet peach flavor with a touch of tartness. Good balance.
