Flavor is big juicy oranges and pashion fruit with some nice lemony tartness to complement it. fuckin Mellon sour cherry acetic acid. medium body, slightly dry finish (or is that the marijuana?) Pretty neat. a very unique beer on all dimensions. Amazing beer, but there is a rotten melon type flavor that i can’t get over. Otherwise, an awesome beer that I’m very happy to have tried. ericandersnavy (1038), crossroads, Texas, USA Oct 22, 2009 bottle thanks to maltomeal. poured hazy yellow. aroma was orange, lemon, wood, and cherry tart. flavor was the same with light body and medium carbonation. Cavie (1289), Fort Worth, Texas, USA Oct 18, 2009 Bottle courtesy of MaltOMeal. Banana hazy yellow. Armpit sour smell. Has some elements of sadness that bring it back to reality. Taste is sour to the max. Flavor evens out and turns nice however, it remains a little rough. piscator34 (1121), Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada Oct 17, 2009 Bottled sample via and shared with oakbluff. Batch 2. Clear gold in colour with medium spritzy carbonation. Aromas are of funk, white grapes, sour apple, and spicy yeast. Tart white grapes are upfront in the mouth, along with pilsner malts, granny smith apple, christmas spices, and wooden barrel. Medium bodied, in spite of all of the sour. Not quite as dry or as barnyard like as a European sour, but very enjoyable nonetheless. BeerandBlues2 (3190), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA Oct 16, 2009 GABF 2009.

Aroma is average malt (bread, cookie, cereal), light (grass), average yeast (earth) with notes of grape, green apple, and pear. Medium bodied, slick texture, lively carbonation, and a sour finish. Long duration, light sweetness, heavy acidity and sourness.
