First off this beer is Really Really Really good. Block 15 and 16 tons really made something good here. This is for sure the highest rating for a beer I have given. I have a few bottles I am going to be saving for awhile so they can become way more funky!
Look: Orange haze, Looks like a some crazy juice that would cost a lot of money at some organic store.. lol but really it looks tasty.
Smell: Orange, tropical fruits and citrus smell. Fallowed by that Brett smell! You know that smell.
Taste: Its really hard to nail one thing down. I would say the All the different Tropical fruits with the orangeness taste. Its got so much going for it. Just have one while you can!
Feel: this beer is super drinkable, that be said its still a strong beer that you're going to feel sooner then later. I would just buy a few bottles and have them at a special occasions!

The 2016 Funky Hands is this year's anniversary beer, made to celebrate 16 tons anniversary. Past anniversary beers from Logsdon and Upright have been interesting, but the funky hands is in a completely different league.

The beer pours a hazy, golden tan color with good head retention and lacing. On the nose, this is just wild stuff. There is a huge aroma of dry citrus, tropical fruit, light onion and a hint of pine, which incredibly, blends in almost seamlessly with a huge aroma of barnyard funk. The aroma profile is incredible, and is an absolute show stopper. The flavor profile replicates the nose pretty closely, and it's just amazing the level of flavor I'm picking up in this beer (the bottled version in particular has a huge tropical fruit presence, with pineapple by the boatload). So delicious and so complex, this is just an absolute tour de force by Block 15. Mouthfeel is I guess medium bodied to full. There's a huge amount of flavor in this great beer, and the nearly endless finish is infused with barnyard flavor and hoppy goodness. The finish is surprisingly clean and bitter, and this beer is dangerously drinkable. Alcohol is very well integrated into the flavor profile, more so even than in the regular sticky hands (which this is obviously modeled after).

Stunning. I really hope the brewer decides to make this a regular offering, as it's THAT good.
