Bottle. Poured a darker amber color with a small head that went quick. Aroma was fruits, acidic, and vinegar. Flavor was very sweet, apples, sugar, candies, and acid. Tart, metallic aftertaste. Not my favorite out there, but drinkable

Bottle/12oz - This is the last of the "styles" of beer on my list... I have now had *every* style of beer that exists!!!! - Pours a clear dark amber in color with a small, almost non-existent head and very little carbonation. Aroma is fruity... apples cherries, pears... barnyard funk with citrus and vinegar sourness... with plenty of the candy sugar to fill in the gaps. Finish is surprisingly sweet, given the sour style, and lingering. This might not be the "best" faro out there, but I like it!!

TomDecapolis (4000) - Skippack, Pennsylvania, USA - OCT 24, 2010
Pours a moslty translucent orange copper with little to no head. Aroma of fresh red apples, sweet and lightly tart. Flavor was kind of sweet and cereal like, red apples and a light tartness.
