The appearance was a clean yellow transparent color with a thin white foamy head that glistened and then slid right on off into the beer. The aroma had some green apple skin, freshly cut grass, some white pepper and then a little bit of lemon peel, somewhat sour but really pulling an ample amount of some damp hay bits, perhaps somewhat like a saison, interesting, but I find acceptable. The flavor keeps the sour portion of the lemon rind hitting against the green apple skin. Nice fresh clean grassy sweetness really keeping the broadside of the sour underscored. Slick sour apple skin/grassy to lemon peel in the aftertaste to ride on into the finish. On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a somewhat odd sessionability about this one (I don’t find many sour ales to be sessionable). This one seems to beckon me to thrust right on down my throat. White pepper portion doesn’t seem to spice anything in the feel here like I smelled, just seems to only have been there in the aroma. Carbonation seemed to have felt fine. ABV felt appropriate. Overall, really nice session sour ale well worthy to come back to during this time of the year.
