Cloudy golden orange with a nice white fluffy head. Aroma is orange lemon sour with a touch of spice. Flavor is like a sour orange juice. Bubbly light and refreshing finish. Very good.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy medium yellow with a huge, dense creamy head. Aroma is initially spicy, some orange zest and acidic, yeast and dusty brett funk. Flavour is surprisingly sour. The sourness feels fresh and comes through all the way here. Some definite yeast and funk tones also contribute to the flavour, with a vaguer spicyness underneath. The wheat characteristics are nearly all gone. A refreshing and sparkly carbonation makes it easy to drink. Overall a good, refreshing beer with some surprising takes on a style that’s usually a tad boring.
