Beautiful in the glass- sparling light golden with a small white head. One of the most sour beers I’ve ever had. Rewarding and challenging. Mild citric sour fruits on acetic acid. More punishing as it warms and loses effervescence. Tastes a tad bit of salt or mineral. Delicious but one dimensional and extreme.

Jul 29, 2008 On tap at Stone Brewing class on Sour Ales, taught by Tomme Arthur. A yellow-ish sweet sour ale with strong brett flavor but interesting lemony flavor. Very tasty and complex. Something I could drink a lot of. (Very similar to Lost Abbey Isabelle Proximus, but not as complex, fruity, or sour.)

Jul 28, 2008 Stone Sourfest. I’m a sucker for sour so I liked this one and probably overrated it a bit. The main issue with this beer is that it’s JUST sour. There’s very little complexity behind the funk which takes away from my overall impression.

Jul 22, 2008 These type of beers remind me why i rank beer on top of all beverages. If i were a doctor or a criminal, i would prescribe this beer for depression. The color was tangerine. It was hazy. It had absolutely no head whatsoever. The aroma was on the faint side showing smidgens of sour apricot. Boom! A juicy fruity spritzy, sour, clean-as-fuck beer! I have never in my life had a beer so fruity, balanced, sour, and clean. It tends to be sweet at times, but just as much as it needs to be...this is first rate beer making, no doubt.

Jul 20, 2008 1st tasting of the day @ the Stone Sour Fest 2008. Poured a clear, deep golden yellow with some head retention. Tons of sour peaches and other tree fruits. Very funky, glad I got to try this rarity!

May 29, 2008 On tap at DLD, thanks to funky brewster for going and getting a couple of these for us in line. Hazy light amber pour with bubbly white head. Beautiful funky citrus sour aroma. Flavor is amazing to asay the least. Huge sour, made my jaw clench a bit, which was wonderful. Grape, apricut, lemon, peach, sour apples all come rushing at you with just the right amount of funk. this beer makes you salivate and yearn for more with every sip. I could drink this beer all day.
