Aug 4, 2008 Scent is not terribly strong but what is there is quite good a lot of apple, funk, vinegar aromas with a little hay. The beer looks nice it is a hazy golden color without much head but a lively carbonation likened to a champagne. The flavor is particularly nice, the sourness and funkyness are delicious and very present however not overwhelming at all and gives way to nice tart fruity flavors well balanced with by the beer’s dominant dryness. The beer is very nice with a sharp palate and is very drinkable; I would drink a six pack of this if I could ever afford it.

Aug 2, 2008 (750ml bottle) Pours a cloudy golden body with a medium-sized white head. Aroma of barnyard, apple, mustiness, and citrus. Flavor of citrus sourness, funky, and earthiness with a dry wood finish.

Jul 29, 2008 Slightly hazy golden pour with nice carbonation and a smooth head. Intense earthy vinegar aroma with lots of and lemony citrus. Tart sour flavor thats just right. Very lemony with some woodiness to back it. Nothing too complex, but tasty and refreshing. Pretty good sour, though I’ve had better.
