Wonderfully tasty beer.

Two month old can enjoyed in a wide mouth stemless wine glass.

Pure peach juice body with an initial off-white bubbly head that drops to nothing in nothing flat. Just looks like juice.

Tart, juicy, and tangy on the nose. More wild/sour than IPA, with loads of overripe stone and tropical fruit, some fresh squeezed orange, mild funk, and deep, damp grass. Alluring but modest.

I’m a sucker for moderate sweetness in my beers, and this one hits the spot. Amazing orange, peach, apricot, mango, and pineapple fruit juice, with grass, pine, and a tart, pithy punch bringing up the rear. I can’t say that it’s deep or layered or nuanced, but I can say that it is absolutely delicious. Notes of pear, nectarine, tangerine, and dark grape. Just a wonderful fruit medley. Not sure how much IPA DNA is there, but I really like it as a fruited sour.

Incredibly soft and smooth, moderate mouth feel, coating without being sticky, and a pleasant prickle of pithy and tart juice. Little to no carbonation.

Can from BigTimeADL fresh from brewery.
Labeled as Sour DIPA, but all other versions are categorized as Wild Ale by ba.
Tastes like a nice orange sour ale.
Possibly my first sour ipa.
Enjoyable.
