On tap at the brewpub.

I'll start by saying that I'm convinced this beer had gone bad. That said, I'll rate what I drank...

It poured a pretty dead-looking, slightly hazy orangish amber with almost no head at all which receded quickly and let no lacing.

The aroma had a very faint caramel malt base but was pretty much dominated by an acidic sourness. Smelled slightly oxidized.

The taste was even more off-putting than the aroma and pretty much cinched that this beer had gone bad. It was dominated completely by a metallic sour tang that puckered my mouth.

The mouthfeel was medium bodied and had lost a lot of its carbonation.

Overall, this was the least impressive beer I had at the brewpub. That said, I feel certain I got a skunky beer, so take it for what it's worth.
