Courtesy of mibirder. Cloudy yellow, minimal white head. Aroma has nice lacto sour up front, hints of pils malt and light floral/citrus character. Flavor much the same, really nice combo of floral/citrus, don’t really get any goord, dig it none the less. Highly carbonated, great mouthfeel. Thanks Sean! Much appreciated.

Bottle shared by craytonic. Thanks Matt! The beer is hazy and orange, with a finger of dense, white head that leaves some decent lacing on the glass. The aroma offers some funky citrus, with some lemon zest and subtle spice. Lots of citrus and funk in the flavor. Delicious Brett character. Quite good. Very drinkable. Smooth on the palate, with a pleasant lingering aftertaste. Serving type: bottle Reviewed on: 10-08-2011

big bottle from sampling at Proof. Hazy yellow pour with light off white head. Aroma is big lemon and light funk. Light tart taste and even sour / bitter backbone. Little salty with vegetable, pepper and tea vibes.

Bottle. Light hazy gold pour with abundant white head and heavy lacing. Aroma is full of gueuze-reminescent aromas, super tart, quite funky, spicy, with light old hop herbal notes. Taste is sweeter, more grain, good herbal notes under all the powerful jolly pumpkin sour/barrel notes. Palate is well carbed and full bodied, finishes slightly dry. One of the best JPs I’ve had.

750 ml bottle; super cloudy orange with slight whore head; funky lemon rind, dry malt, sweet orange and grapefruit; definitely on the sweet side with spritzy orange peel, white sugar, sweet squash; drinks with a creamy vegi quality; drinks dry with a yummy creamed squash; has a nutty, dry vegi quality to it; low on the pepper but plenty of vegi sweetness; yum!!

Tasted on 8/2/11 from a capped 750mL bottle shared by SpdKilz, thanks Carleton, bottled 7/22/10. Pours hazy light orange with a thick white head that slowly recedes to spotty lace and a decent collar. The nose is tart with some gooseberry and tropical fruit notes, green apple skin, the signature Jolly Pumpkin funk that I love, and some lemon acidity. The flavor is tart and sour up front with green apple skin and gooseberry, and pumpkin seeds, moving to Jolly Pumpkin funk, and some lemon acidity. The body is medium with slightly stronger than average carbonation, and a long, tannic, funky, acidic, and lightly bitter finish.

750 mL capped bottle, Batch 559, Bottled 7-22-10, sampled 10-22-10: hazed gold with a wonderful, thick, tightly bubbled ivory head. The 2 inch foam gives a fantastic beer mustache. Lemon-honey sweetness in the aroma with underlying soft citrus notes along with strawberries, pineapple, sun-blazed hay. Dry, barnyard(y) flavour profile with sour, dusty limestone notes and lingering bitter honeycomb accents. Butterscotch belches ensue. Perfect, tingling, tight bubbled palate. It is for beers like this that I drink...the dry, sourness of a gueuze and the fruity (non-artificial) sweetness of a saison! Awesome! Thanks to the folks in Dexter, you make truly delicious, World Class beers!

Trying to catch up on old notes. Brought by puzzl somewhere. Hazy pale orange with head. Tart brett peachy funky farm aroma. Tart peach grapefruit punch dry clean brett farm peppery finish. Tight palate. Awesome.

Denver rare beer pints for prostate. hazy yellow with white head decent. Aroma is funky sour, dry, and a touch of vegetable herb. Flavor is sour vinous, vegetable, citrus, dry through longer finish.

Bottle shared with GT2, thanks! Pour is hazy gold, small white head, little retention/lace. Aroma is dust, citrus, salt, oak, funk. Taste is salty, pineapple, lemon, earth, dust. Palate is dry, soft, refreshing finish.
