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!

Bottle-Fizzy look, fizzy feel, fizzy taste. The color was a cloudy soft gold with a large frothy head. The aroma was citrusy, yeast and a touch of hops. The taste was very similiar with a sharp crisp, better finish.

12 oz. Cloudy gold with a humongous head that lasts. Bitterish citrus, spicy yeast and white wine cork aroma. Flavors of lemon peel, bitter grass, and spicy bitter bubblegum boiled in white wine. Palate is light-medium bodied, tingly with hops and carbonation, and dry. Big dry bubblegum aftertaste. Tastes alot like a messed up Wit bier home brew I did a few years ago.

A Mes rate: Bottle at GBBF. What a touching story. What a boring beer. Citric and spicy (coriander) and little else. Very dry.

Pours straw yellow with a huge foamy head. Aroma is floral with a hint of citrus and a bit of funk. Mouth feel is light with a fair amount of carbonation. Flavor is flowers and spice. Finish is a bit more bitter than I would have expected, but had a nice sourness to it. Needs a bit more malyy sweetness in my opinion, but is nonetheless a good ale.

Pours a cloudy orange color with a ridiculously large frothy, foamy head in the tulip. The head looked like ice cream and had a very thick consistency. The smell was funky with a hint of bubble gum, grass, yeast and spice. Not a big fan of saisons, so this beer didn’t really do much for me.

Bottle: Cloudy golden pour with a massive, foamy white head. Nose is abundant with spices, yeast, florals, and grassiness. Taste is a smooth blend of spices, yeast, and florals. Not bad, but sort of mild in flavor depth.

The aroma on this is killer for such a low ABV beer. Appearance is an orange yellow body with particalia and a perfect head. Actually, something really interesting that I notice is that the head is slanted. Thinner on one side and thicker on the other. Makes me wonder if the Leffe chalice sits crooked. I don’t think so, but you never know. Anyway, on to the beer. Flavor is spices with a dry tangy and signature sour finish. Detail is very good on this beer. Nothing stands out in a negative way. All of the ingredients seem to work together well.
