3.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Funky aroma wafts through the room. Cloudy golden body with a ridiculous amount of thick foam. A bit of a tongue number, active carbonation. Really good if you like funk. Very drinkable.
3.8 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
330mL bottle. $6.00 for a single. Pours copper color, thick creamy light tan head. Substantial amount of funk in the nose. Musty aromas dominate, there is some of the hop spiciness that is in the same base Yeast Series beers(not as dominate as the funkiness). Tastes of lemon tartness, high acidity. Most of the toasted malt character and hop bitterness is gone and covered by the funk. Finishes with an acid like character close to a Kombucha.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle split with EC and LS. Pours a slightly hazy, orange body with a medium, thick, creamy head that lingers and sticks. Aroma is outdoorsy and tart with some citrus. Lightly sweaty. Malty sweet flavor with moderate bitterness. Tart and lemony with some nice bitter grapefruit. Light body with a decidedly bitter finish. Effervescent carbonation. Tartness and sourness adds to the bitter perception. Alcohol is well hidden/blended. A successful experiment and a pleasure to have tasted!

Had at capones. Pour was a super hazy crazy head with lace. Aroma was malts and yeast out the wazoo. Flavor was really creamy malts and yeast. Really earthy.
