Bright yellow, hazy, with a faint, bubbly white head.
Smell is dank cannabis with a hint of vanilla lemon curd.
A light airy froth produces flavors of semi-tart lemon-lime with a touch of vanilla, finishing chalk dry.

Another growler.
Pours juice bombish. Half a finger head of foam, very quickly dissipates. Pineapple on the nose. Smells a little bigger than it ends up being, but quite a bit of flavor for a training-wheels IPA. This beer has sour highlights and I certainly understand the description as a sour IPA, but it's more IPA than it is sour. It's a candy pineapple flavor, particularly on the mid and back palate.
Light mouthfeel, another soft beer by these folks. This is another beer that anyone can drink, including those who are horrified by the IPA style. I'm not sure this is a result of the subtle sourness as well as the juicy character but this is an extremely effortless beer to drink. Recommend as a beer you can drink after a difficult day at work in the beginning or middle of the week if you want to wake up feeling basically like yourself. Decent.
Post script: I would like to add that the beer I am reviewing is labeled as Soulcaster but is not a wild ale. It's described on the label as a "little sour IPA" and weighs in at 5% abv. I hope I'm reviewing the correct beer here.
