1st review of this beer on BA. Thanks to leftpaw for bringing it out in late October 2018. Always like Phantom Carriage stuff if not their pricing, but hey, its expensive real estate out that way. This is also a collaboration with Trve Brewing out of Denver. I like their stuff too.
Pours a cloudy amber with ample white head in the full on one inch and beyond depth, pretty good retention for a wild ale. Aroma was a light grain, caramel and lemon sour power.
Taste imparts more oak than the nose did, brings a hefty amount of white wine barrel and french oak dryness. Lemon, crabapple, pear notes, light white grape, pineapple-ish influence. The above average amount of sourness largely covers up what appears to be a maltier than average appearance of grain and caramel I thought I was getting into, but the citrus aspect grew where that shrank.
Overall its pretty good stuff, but its over $1 per ounce so that is kind of a turn off.
