Ward is a noble frog gnome. While he's neither strong nor fast, he chose to pursue duties as a cleric with a fanastic ability to heal their friends. Ward is a good listener, an excellent treking companion, and always offers incredibly refreshing advice. Even if he's sometimes a little too truthful, Ward knows exactly the right way to balance hard work with good spirits.

Not sure if any one beer is the answer to any of life's problems, but when it's a sour ale chocked with limes and vanilla beans, it's certainly worth a try.
Urban Artifact's Ward hits the glass with a hazy lemon-yellow appearance and a part-fizzy, part-froth cap. As the scent of limes strike the nose first, hints of cider, citrus, white wine and a light burlap musk tease the nose. Sweetness of cereal and sourdough is rounded with the smoothness of vanilla for a slightly candied taste. Trending tart, drying and with a light peppery quality, the finish is refreshing and tart.
Seeming like a sherbet lime taste hit with a splash of Sprite soda, this sour ale drinks as much like a cocktail as it does a beer.

Cloudy place yellow in color with a tight white head. Nose is pungent. Taste is rather pleasant. Nice lemon and lime. Some jaw gripping sourness across entire palate

I love key lime, but not sure how I feel about it in a beer... I've been loving a lot of UA stuff recently, so we'll see... Two fingers worth of late developing whipped light khaki colored froth... Comprised of big chunky bubbles that form a rather rocky top... Audibly fizzy... Decent retention... Color is a slightly chill hazed pale copper... Nose is highlighted by lacto sourness, lime and a kiss of vanilla... Took a second to get used to, but quite pleasant once you do... Palate is more tart and less sweet than expected... Salt and sour lime... Just a touch of sweetness... Fizzy and on the lighter side of medium bodied... Solid, interesting and enjoyable... Great label too...
