Hazy straw pour with a thin white head. Nose has a little lactic sourness with some hay and grains of paradise. Flavor is a little light but has a nice fruity tone that’s dry and dusty with a touch of sour tones, and passion fruit/grains of paradise tropicalness. But mostly dry sour dustiness.

Drank a ton of this while in FoCo, and got a few more bottles to bring home....annndd, the are gone, and I want more. MORE NOW. Pour on tap was slightly less cloudy than the bottle, which was a cloudy with a spare white head. Aroma is just amazing. Lots of lemony, earthy, salty goodness, wet wheat, lots of tart citrus, yeast. Taste gets a bit muddled from the yeast character (I noticed this significantly more on the bottle pours than the pours on tap), but still is packed with bready, earthy, tart goodness. Citrus throughout. I really, really like(d) this beer, and would drink this over most anything I have had recently. The amount of flavor packed into this tiny (3.2?? WTF??) beer is freaking phenomenal. Not really a saison, not really a berliner, but downright delicious. Any FoCo folks want to send me some more?

Pour on tap at the CO rare beer tasting 2012, hazy yellow pour with white head, aroma brought notes of slight vanilla, corn, hints of tart lemon, slight grain, biscuit, bread, hints of lactic acid as well, pretty nice smelling. Taste is a mix of sweet corn, vanilla, hints of biscuit, slight lactic lemony notes, hints of funk but pretty clean, finishing slightly tart, slightly bitter, slightly dry. Not bad, but missing a bit of something.
