Bottle… This beer rocks!… Pours murky and caramel-colored with a small, fluffy, off-white head. The bouquet is just bursting-at-the-seams with toasted oak, funky sock acidity and caramel – just a hint of rye spiciness. Full-bodied and creamy with soft carbonation. This baby is sour as Hell – totally unexpected from a 10% abv whale of a specialty grain beer. There’s some spiciness from the rye and silly yeasts, but really, it’s all about the s-o-u-r. Finishes (you guessed it) sour and caramely with just the slightest trace of butter at the wee end. Totally wowed by this world class beer. Thanks go out to giarcsr for shipping this baby my way!

An aroma that starts out good and ends up top notch. A good strong sour and peppery bite. This is what I was looking for! The funk is strong and grainy and escellent. Absolutely loved it. First time I was blown away here.

Simply incredible. One of the best sours I’ve ever had, and easily the best American sour. Perfect balance of tartness and spice for a truly unique, refreshing drinking experience.

Tap at fireworks - pours hazy amber with a big Cabernet, must, sour cherry, vanilla, and rye aroma. Taste is just this side of being too sour, but they’ve restrained themselves. Overall, very, very nice!

On tap at Thirsty Monk in Asheville, NC. Dark orange pour with an off-white head. Aroma of sour apple, light oak, cherry, and lemon zest. The flavor makes me very happy; sour apple and cherry with light lactic notes. A wonderful sour!
