Pours a light gold with a thin white head. Hints of lemon and vanilla present in the aroma. Lightly tart with a dry finish, this sour ale has the flavors of a classic lemon dessert in a glass. Cheers!

4.75/5  rDev +19.3%
look: 4.75 | smell: 4.75 | taste: 4.75 | feel: 4.75 | overall: 4.75
Appearance:  Hazy yellow gold pour on draft with a white bubbly head that left a decent ring and lots of lacing.

Aroma and Taste:  Lemon drop candy mixed with very effervescent lemon-lime soda.

Feel:  Dry and medium-high carbonation.

Overall: This is exactly what you want when you purchase a sour beer called "lemon tart". I didn't get any vanilla notes as advertised, but I don't think it was needed. Good execution by the brewer.

12oz can. Date stamp on bottom reads 'canned on 06/27/23'.
Partly cloudy, pale gold colored body. One finger of white head, which disappears after a couple of minutes. No lacing.
Aroma of lemon and a smidgen of vanilla.
Taste is natural lemon, which is tart, but there is some vanilla sweetness. Short duration of aftertaste.
Medium mouth feel. Dry finish. Okay carbonation.
Thirst quenching lemon sour.
