3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20 CharlesDarwin (2570) - Peace Dale, Rhode Island, USA - AUG 29, 2009
On tap at Track 84 - Warwick, RI. Aroma throws a light cheese
rind, musty cellar floor, and a bit of horsiness. Pours a
coppery-brown-tinted golden, with minimal head. Flavor is
immediately curt, thinning fast, and the slides towards light
lemon juice acidity. Lacking full acid body, this beer plays
thin. The characters are solid, but they feel washed out. Nice
funkiness in the wild basement, orchards, and animal sense
perseveres into the finish.

I’m not too familiar with sour beers, this is my second. Soft aromas of apples, cherries, raspberries and bready yeasts. Taste is sour cherries but a bit of malt too. Not very sour at all just a well felt acidity all along a bit like an oak aged beer. I enjoyed it.

The aroma is a very mild sour apple scent. The appearance is a very clean golden color, with a thin white collar. The flavor is a nice tart sour flavor, similar to a farmhouse style cider. The flavors are of super tart apple. The feel is a nice initial champagne like bubbly effervescence that transforms into a dry feel, with an interestingly nutty late ending.

1.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 6/20 floydian1 (481) - FNQ, AUSTRALIA - AUG 4, 2009
250ml bottle from Corks of Cotham, Bristol. Pours cloudy pale orange with a small off white head. Malty wheaty nose with background wild yeasts. The flavour starts off quite tart and lemony sour but then quickly disintegrates into a sickly sweet fruity finish as the artificial sweetener takes hold. Rather thin bodied. Not nice at all.
