Sour, barrel-aged version of the beer by the same name. Brewed in collaboration with Maui brewing.
Yes, Michigan and Hawaii are connected. It should be obvious to you now, as you hold this beer, and read this label. John and I designed this beer with two noble fruits from two noble states, Michigan & Hawaii. Cherries and liliko’i. Starting to see the connection? I feel it. So does John. 4391 miles may separate our breweries, but no our thirst for the exquisite. Hipa! -Ron
Working with Ron is something I’ve always want to do since I had my first Jolly Pumpkin beer. Years later, it’s a reality. Being involved on this project was an honor and a privilege. Mahalo to my MBC crew and to you, fans of craft beer! -John

Can, 2020 release.
A clear reddish pink with a dense white head with decent retention and minimal lacing, this looks solid. The nose opens with a really bright and refreshing blend of sour cherries and passionfruit, fruity and tart, and with mild funk present. There's a mild lactic tartness present to complement the fruit note, but there isn't a whole lot of Brett depth here. On the palate, again, this is bright and refreshing with the acidity of passionfruit working nicely with the tart cherries. Clean lactic tartness, mildly yogurt like, is present. Drying, tart and crisp on the finish, there's a touch of clove present. Quite tasty.

750 ML. bottle
Served in a Jolly Pumpkin snifter
Bottled 12/21/16
This beer pours a ruddy orange color with copper highlights. It is topped with an inch of tan head that leaves virtually no lacing.
The smell is tart with cherry with hints of ACV.
I taste the cherry and passion fruit right away. Then come the acidity and tartness. It's probably more sour than tart with a dry finish.
Pretty smooth mouthfeel
This is more sour than JP's traditional offerings which is a plus for me. I am glad I bought several bottles of it. Well worth the money and time in the cellar.
