noncaloric (601), Madison, Wisconsin, USA Mar 22, 2009 Hazy tawny-amber pour, irrationally exuberant beige head, rocky chunks of lace. Aroma has tart fruits, wild yeast, carbonation. Flavor is distinctly cidery, tart, dry, lots of apple peel, touch of citrus. Subdued worty malt backbone. Earthy notes, dust and wild yeast funk, creep in towards the finish. The dryness and apple peel notes tread just a little too close to a chemical heat. Medium body. Soft, sudsy mouthfeel. MrRain (415), O’Fallon, Illinois, USA Mar 21, 2009 750ml bottle poured into a shaker. This beer pours orange-yellow and murky with a large creamy head. The aroma is tart and fruity. This is a pretty sour beer but it has a saison feel to it. It’s okay but not really my style. KnN (712), Greenbelt, Maryland, USA Mar 21, 2009 Poured a nice amber/brown with a thin white head. Aroma was a bit of sour funk with some nice undertones of malt, a little cinnamon maybe? Flavor was sour brett yeast on the front (not overwhelming in the slightest though), but there were a lot of other things playing in the background. A nit nutty, a nit of a tannin kick, a little vanilla. Very nice beer from Jolly Pumpkin. COBeer (18), Boston, Massachusetts, USA Mar 19, 2009 Plesantly tart, but in no way overbearing. Somewhat sour reminicent of my favorite style (Flemish). A tasty brew not to be missed by fans of the JP. Theis (3617), Denmark Mar 15, 2009 Bottle at Jacobs - Southern Lord Day. Batch 335. Cloudy amber - white head. Brett, nutty, soapy, fruity, oak, wood, caramel, nice malty, dryness, light flowery. Nice. polomagnifico (532), Saginaw, Michigan, USA Mar 11, 2009 Bottle. Aroma has notes of yeast, citrus, amber malts, nutty earth. Medium hazy orange amber sparkling hue with a large rocky, foamy, off-white head that mostly lasted and left great lace. Flavor is earthy, nutty, amber malts, and a sour tart finish. Palate is light bodied and lively. Very drinkable with a nice sour finish but could use a little more flavor. Nice though. CaryTheDude (1113), Longmont, Colorado, USA Mar 11, 2009 Crushed with Jakebra. Interesting brew. Spicy, funky nose. Flavor has some nuts, some orange, some funky brett and subtle sourness. Very light, dry finish. Incredibly drinkable, and pretty damn nice. Bhops (329), Dallas, Texas, USA Mar 4, 2009 Pours golden amber with thick rocky head... aroma of brett, malts and floral notes. Flavor is brett... nice sourness but not overwhelming... smooth. Nuttiness at finish. Very nice.
