22 ounce handbottle thanks to Steve, one of the sourest beers I have ever drank, it is a Pomegranate wild ale produced using a Belgian Golden Strong ale and Brettanomyeces Lambicus, it has been aged in oak barrels for nearly forty months at the time this was packaged

When I poured this brew into my Dogfish Head snifter tonight, the color was a a mix between an amber and medium orange, big 1 1/2 inch bubbly white head that lasted around five minutes, nice retention, lacing at the top, smell consisted of strong nail polish, pomegranates, cherries, tartiness, citric acid, lemon juice, and vinegar, the flavor literally burns it is so sour, when it is colder it is almost hard to swallow, great fruit flavors all identified in the smell, tarty finish is most admirable part of the beer leaving a crackling on the tongue with acidic pomegranates and cherries, liked how the fruit took over as it warmed and the sourness mellowed slightly , mouthfeel was very tart, almost stingy, puckering sour makes this name appropriate, medium body, one of the most carbonated beers I have seen as well, tried to drink the bomber by myself but only got through sixteen ounces, not heavy or anything just flat out acidic, not a bad thing either, went down a lot easier when swished around a little bit in the mouth, also once it warmed too, could drink a fair amount over a longer period of time, would love to try this again in a few years, especially because the same culture is used and just added onto, I think it is already three or four years old, highly recommended
