Pours a copper color with aroma of vinegar and high alcohol taste. Taste is similar to rubbing alcohol smell mixed with a vinagrette dressing. Yuck!! I am not a fan of this one.

Sample from a growler. Color was a rich, koolaid red. Unfamiliar with the fruit, but I am guessing that is what the aroma smelled like. Yeast and sourness as well. Flavor was tart, fruity and just ok overall for me. Good start for them.

(Growler) Pours a cloudy reddish body with a spare off-white head. Aroma of ollaliberries, caramel, raspberries, and apple cider vinegar. Flavor of ollaliberries, earth, and moderately funky with a dry finish.

Jacob brought the growler to Sour Fest. Thanks Jacob. Hazy rose orange in the glass with white head/ring. Nose is super sweet fruit and berry. Bit of tartness on the nose. Super fruity tart flavor. Nice brew.

Growler shared by a generous BeerAdvocate guy at the Stone Sourfest. Pours with a hazed raspberry body and a small white head. Aroma is tannic with raspberries, black berries and ollaliberries. Taste is tart with a melody of dark berries. Very drinkable with light carbonation and a thin mouthfeel.

Growler that was brought to sour fest today by an unkown benevolent soul wearing a cool t-shirt. Pours reddish pink. Nose was very sweet. Taste is sweet, light, and very very nice.

On tap at brewery. Pours clear magenta-pink with a small wispy head. Aroma has slight vinegar and a bunch of funky, tart fruity notes, really bold though not as much “berry” as I had imagined. The flavors burst with tart berries however – blackberries and cherries come to mind immediately. Wonderful little refresher, with a light enough body and flavor to be useful even on a hot summers day.

On tap at the brewery, this beer poured a dark pinkish red color with a foamy light pink head. The flavor was tart with berry notes. It was quite refreshing.
