A: The beer is hazy pale light yellow in color and has a light amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a large patch of white bubbles on the surface, a narrow collar around the edge, and some lacing down the sides of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of sour apples, lemons, and lactobacillus are present in the nose. I can't say that I've ever tried a cashew apple (caju) fruit before, but that's the best way I could describe the smell.
T: The taste follows the smell, starting off with sour flavors of lactobacillus (but with hardly any associated creaminess) and has notes of sour limes and apples.
M: It feels a bit more than light-bodied on the palate and has a little tartness with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is definitely unique - it's sour and funky but has an interesting combination of flavors from the cajun fruit.

Such a unique sour. Distinct pepper flesh and nutty aromas in the scent, definitely still present in the taste albeit much less so. Perhaps a bit intense on the foam but a good body for the ABV and a decently biting sourness. Like the other Way Beer sours lots of berliner-like lemon and mineral flavors, though this one overall seems a bit tamer than the rest, I wish the caju was taken a step further in the taste. Lovin' this Sour Me Not series, very refreshing+unique low ABV wild ales that have all been great so far.
