vtafro (1862) - Wayne, New Jersey, USA - JAN 9, 2011

Draft @ BGH, sour bear republic event. Golden orange pour with some white head. Wine, and light tart aroma. Sour flavor is lesser than expected, light malt, some oak and fruit tones.

Rciesla (5499) - Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA - NOV 29, 2010

Draft. Pours a hazy orange golden body with a light bruin tone with a white subtle lacing. Light earth tones, a hint of herbal and brett tones. Very light hints of apples, cots, low acidity, watered down a bit almost takes on a watermelon funky tone.

puzzl (3172) - New York, New York, USA - AUG 2, 2010

Tap at BGH. Slick lemon, orange peel, and cinnamon in the nose. Fairly mellow. Nice body, sticky, prickly, with only a fleeting touch of late sourness. Drying palate. Some peach notes.

j12601 (5609) - Poughkeepsie, New York, USA - JUL 14, 2010

On tap at Bar Great Harry. Pours a hazy gold with a medium sized white head. Fuzzy light funk, soft yeast and acid. Light brett. Medium bodied and very light, the sour is not so pronounced, especially after what the nose hinted at. Very light and dry. Crisp tartness and definitely a little young. Very nice effervescence to it though.

beerguy101 (5206) - Newark, California, USA - APR 4, 2010

Tasted on tap at the Celebrator Anniversary Party on 2/14/2010. This sour ale pours a light gold color from the tap. Medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is tart, barnyard, fruity and sweet. A medium bodied sour. The malts are fruity and sweet. The hops are floral. Earthy and musty, with some horse blanket, but subtle and soft. Interesting. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.
