On tap a the brewpub.
The appearance seemed a murky pale sort of pink color with no head or lace.
The aroma had some lemon pulp and rind, somewhat bitter but also a sturdy sort of balance of sour riding in underneath. Light grassiness and an ever so slight underscore of wheat.
The flavor was moderately sour balancing in some bitterness, some tartness and a snap of the wheat (reminiscent of a Berliner Weisse). Quick snappy sour to tart lemon aftertaste.
The mouthfeel was about light bodied, perhaps a touch above with a fair sessionability about it. Low carbonation with a fair crisp fulfilling sort of finish. ABV felt on par. Some expected acidity but not distracting.
Overall, as a sour ale with a present tartness rolling in nicely for effect, I'd say it was pretty nice and one that I'd come back to.
