Commercial Description:
This delicious farmhouse ale is named for our Jack Russell, who struck by a car, bounced back in fine tenacious Jack Russell fashion, and is brewed for those of us who knocked down, have picked up, dusted off and carried on undaunted. Golden, naturally cloudy, bottle conditioned and dry hopped for a perfectly refreshing balance of spicy malts, hops and yeast. Please enjoy our beers in good health, And look both ways when crossing the street!

Cloudy orange body with a finger high, white, sustained head. Aroma of fruit with smell of outdoors that I couldn’t pinpoint. Refreshing lemon flavor with light spice aftertaste. Really very nice, but this one bottle gave me a terrible stomach ache, making it hard for me to want to purchase again.

Bottle: Pours a cloudy yellow/orange with a hige white bubbly head. Aroma of green apple, peach and citrus. Flavor has a very light malt presence with plenty with the aformentioned fruit flavors with an additional slight pepperyness and a wonder ful llight sour tartness that completes this beer wonderfully.

Hazy yellow with a lasting white head. Delicious bretty, perfumed aroma, some hay, pineapple and leather. Dry and fruity with a little tartness. Lemon tart finish and a lasting brettanomyces aftertaste.

12 oz bottle. I’ve never rated this? Well it has been my mothers milk this hot summer. Pours a hazy orange/amber color with a good sized head. Awesome nose musty barnyard with spice and sour citrus complex and delicious. Lightly tart flavors start orange lemon grassy yeasty and crisp. Its a little bit farmhouse saison and a little bit uncategorizable the way that Orval is. Delicious, I can’t get enough of it. Lately I’ve had some of these fresh and they are not nearly as funky and complex as those with a little age on them ... good but not as good. My favorite bottles of this have about 6 months on them, give them time and let the funk come forth.

(Bottle) Pours a hazy light amber color with a nice amount of head. Spicy, musty aroma. Mildly bitter and astringent. Decent palate, despite the strong carbonation. Grassy, with some vegetable character as well. Nicely balanced. Enjoyable!

12oz. Bottle: Aroma is lightly sweet. Smells of spices including clove, pepper, and coriander. Poured orange in color with a huge, foamy, rocky, off-white head that lasted throughout. Excellent lacing. Very cloudy. Lots of particles. Flavor is medium to heavily sweet. Tastes of spices, yeast, orange, Sprite, and Sour Patch Kids. Full body. Watery texture. Lively carbonation. Sweet finish. Overall, too sweet and over carbonated.

A 12oz bottle thanks to stine. A hazed golden pour with a creamy white head. An aroma of spicy yeastiness. A flavor that is dry, with spices, and a good bitter finish. Mouthfeel is surprising in that it isn’t fizzy but pretty soft. A very good beer for the style.
