I am honestly offended this was bottled and distributed. While i agree with other reviewers, this has some nice salty sour flavors, some fruity overtones. They are COMPLETELY masked by the overwhelming cheese and foot odor of the beer. I drained poured it, and now my kitchen smells like sh*t too.

I am really torn on this beer. I actually really enjoyed the taste. Lots of nice sour and salty notes that one expects from the style, but the nose was so awful that it made it hard to drink. The nose was a lot like sweaty feet. I know that funk is normal with the style, but this one was overpowering.

Pours an effervescent gold with a pinky of ivory colored head. Murks up a bit, above average head retention & lacing
S: Horse blanket, not much else, a little yeastyness
T: Saltyness, sourness, a little bit of lime up front. Saltyness, coriander & lime as this warm. Finishes tart, a little lemony, with salty goodness & just a kiss of melon
MF: Light body & lively carbonation
Super drinkability, a very solid take on the style they should revisit
