Dark brown to black with a brown head.
Aroma of dark, roasty malt and vinegar sourness.

Dark, roasty malt is overwhelmed by the vinegary sourness.

Mouthfeel is thin and astringent.

Overall, I'll pass on this one. The most heavily soured of their offerings, IMO.

Served as a sample at River City Ale Works. The color was a dark brown, with a bit ot tan head. The smell was a sweetish malt. The taste was a slight roasted maltiness, with a bit of sweetness. Mouthfeel was disappointingly thin. Drinkability-wise, maybe I'd have another.

Another thin beer from River City. Though it tasted great, this hardly had any body whatsoever to it. Still, hopefully it can be improved.
