1 PINT 0.9 FL. OZ. bottle
Served in a stemless wine glass
2019
This beer pours orange and murky. I gave it a good swirl and ended up with sediment in my pour. It is topped with a couple inches of creamy off-white head that leaves decent lacing.
Now that is a sour aroma. The apricot is subtle. The sour is intense and smells wonderful. Notes of green apple.
Pretty darn sour. I get some green apple, an almost wine-like sour flavor. Makes me pucker a bit.
Thin bodied with a dry mouthfeel
Very nice sour. Mouth puckeringly delicious.

Murky golden yellow with a white ring. Smell features apricot, peach, orange, and oak with slight funk. Taste is sweeter and juicy, with tons of apricot with citrus and oak supporting, but finishes very abrupt and faint. Feel has some playful acidity and sourness, but really is more juicy and bright if anything. Perfect for a hot summer day

Quite tasty. Looks like cloudy orange juice. Healthy carb, no head or lacing. Can’t get a good read on smell due to a stuffed nose. Excellent subtle sour flavor with plenty of apricot. Reminiscent of a citrusy New England IPA. Medium body, slightly thick, mouth watering, stronger booze presence than the abv would suggest. Super sippable. Excellent beer. Wish I could get a better sense of the smell.

Foggy burnt gold with a fizzy off-white head that dies instantly to a slick surface.
The tart intro almost seems too sour at first, as oaky wine characteristics pop up front. Quickly after, the apricot and lemon express themselves, which swiftly glides into toasty seeds. It all mellows with the effervescence before vanishing into a semi-dry bready exhale. All this happens in a split second, with no lingering flavor at all.
So drinkable for a more complex sour.
