Enjoyed ice cold from a tap at Greenleaf Chopshop. Crisp and refreshing. It's one of the most accessible sour beers I have had. Minimal funk on the nose. Some sting of carbonation on the tongue. A hint of tart green apple and a hint of hops. Well balanced and clean. Not particularly "interesting" like some sours, but I could easily quaff 6 of these on a hot day. Will order a second when this one is complete.

Clear pale yellowish brew with adequate foam in the wine-style glass. Light body, spritzy, and sharp. Moderate sour taste. A slight hoppy aroma with an acidic whiff. Flavors of bitter greens and straw. Rather unpleasant bitterish, dishwatery aftertaste.

I guess there should be a category for these non-conformists. Here's a Pale Ale but soured. Not with wild yeast but kettle soured. It's a revolting Pale Ale, but not too bad as a lactobacillus-added concoction.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Taste true to how it is described: "A happy yet tart Kettle sour Pale Ale, brewed with a generous amount of hops."

Slightly sour, light, refreshing, drinkable, mostly forgettable. Better for drinking while enjoying an activity than sipping and dissecting on an intellectual level
