Draft @ kulminator :Light clear gold with fast dissapering head. Fruity aroma with notes of citrus and green apples. Some wood develops in mouth. Flavour starts sweet, but sourness wins. Dryness in finish.

Sweet, tart nose. Flavor is gentle on the sour side with some brett funk. Finishes dry and sweet. NIce lively carbonation. Tasty beer.

11.2oz. bottle, with yet another that is thanks to john_adam2002; this is a great bonus, and hope you get back to the site someday! Pours a clear light golden with a fizzy white head that slowly dissipates, minimal lacing. Aroma is tart and sour, with lemon rind, and slightly musty. Flavor has more of the same, but remains well balanced and only slightly, but more on the gentle side. There is a nice lingering sour rind along with a more lively carbonation. This is a nice, easy drinking sour, thanks again Adam!

11.2 oz bottle. Hazy yellow/golden color with a small white head that quickly dissipated. Aroma of tropical fruits, lightly toasted malts, some barnyard notes and a bit of apple. Flavor starts off mildly sweet before turning somewhat tart, especially on the finish. Tropical fruits, as well as apples and grapes. A bit of band aid along with a hint of wood. Thin bodied with lively carbonation takes away from the mouthfeel but at the same time makes it very light and refreshing.

Blond appearance with little with head. Nose is first dominated by some bretta and lactic notes, developing in more acidic, quite vinegary one, as it warms a bit. In mouth is extremely mellow, with delicate yet firm lactic notes. Very refreshing. I’d had drank bottles.
