Jan 10, 2008 Big thanks for Eric for brining this one (and thanks to Mike for giving this one to Eric!). 12oz bottle. Poured a medium and hazy yellow color with a small sized white head. Aromas of funk, sweaty, lemons, and an all around tartness. Tastes of lemons, green apples, wheat, and some bready doughiness. Nice puckering tartness. Damn this was a good beer. I wish I could get this as my everyday beer!

Oct 2, 2006 Updated: Oct 3, 2006Draft... GABF ’06... This beer rocks!... sample after sample after sample... Mostly clear, off-yellow beer with a small, fizzy, white head. Sour, funky aroma with notes of lemon, underripe berries, spent grain and pineapple. The flavor is also very sour and grainy with no semblance of balance. Pungent, fruity esters abound. Light to medium-bodied with lively carbonation. Sour, dry finish. I would drink this brew five nights per week if it were more available and less expensive. At 2% ABV, a real gem of an "almost n/a" brew!

Oct 25, 2006 GABF 2006: Lightly hazed very pale yellow. The aroma was sweet yet oh so tart. Notes of wheat and some fruit. The flavor was very tart but had a sweet component that tried to back it up. It was like the Sweet Tart candies I steal from my kids on Halloween. The picture to the left shows a bottle...oh I hope so.

May 27, 2004 Updated: Jun 14, 2007Re-rated 11/17/05 from Blind Tiger VSK Night. Lively and tart with some Cantillon tartness but even more so. Full sourness with farmhouse funkiness. The best beer of the night by far.

Aug 4, 2008 Thanks to Eric for bringing this gem! Poured clear, paler golden with a short cap of white head. The aroma picked up sour pineapple and a touch of passion fruit upfront with tart wheat and pale fruit skins behind.. jam-packed with character, especially when you consider the beer’s small stature. The flavor was tart and powerful with dry wheat and fresh apricot skin sourness throughout.. dry wheat on the edges.. apple vinegar came through toward the back.. tasty! Moderate-to-high tartness on the palate and entirely engaging throughout.. the acidity dropped a little on the back-end and left a bone-dry, clean, refreshing finish. Excellent stuff!
