jbruner (9245) - Lakewood, California, USA - JAN 1, 2017Batch 4. Pours a hazy golden yellow from the bottle with bubbly white head that leaves moderate lace. Aroma is loads of funk and acidity with hints of wheat and floral undertones. Taste is the closest thing I have had to a Belgian style lambic from an American brewery, loads of mild funk, a hint of light fruit, oaky must, mild acidity. Wow, this was a big surprise, gonna have to keep an eye out for more of their beer.

The aroma has big lactic sourness. Some doughy, bready, funky tartness in the taste. Some moderate herbal notes. Subtle though. Sour and lactic throughout. Lighter in body and medium carbonation. Spritzy mouthfeel.
islay (3622) - Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA - AUG 31, 2016Several oz. pour from a bottle; thanks to falco242. Consumed on 8-30-16. A few months under one year of age on this. Pours a hazy yellow with a small amount of short-lasting, beige head. Chamomile scent. Prototypical Berliner Weiss aroma. Nice lemon and white vinegar tartness in flavor. I do get the ginger as well. Very sour in flavor. Really good Berliner Weiss taste. Light to medium body. Frothy in the palate. Quite complex for a non-barrel-aged sour.
