Bottle. Pours a clear orange-amber with a thick, foamy, off-white head. Sour aroma, of under-ripe fruits, yeast, and spices. Taste is sour and sweet, nicely fruity, with malt, yeast, and spices. Lingering fruity sourness. Tasty.

Dark brown colour and unclear. Has an off-white head. Aroma is acid, sulfur, candis. Flavor is heavy acidic, light sweet. Palate is sharp, acid, dry, somehow soft too. Like a lambic.

This started over flowing as soon as I opened it up, out of control, took some effort to settle it down. Amber colored, a lot of carbonation, huge foamy head that eventually settled to a nice level. Fruity and yeasty, light with some spice and a tangy sour presence. I like this beer but I don’t think it’s anything special and is a bit too expensive.

Pours an amberish color with a big, rocky head. Sour, spicey aroma with some licorice, some pepper, some coriander. The flavor is very tart with a lot of spice, lots of orange peel and pepper, a tad funkiness. Almost wish they’d tone down the spiciness, but, man, still an amazing brew.
