dchmela (1426), Orlando, Florida, USA Nov 13, 2009 Batch 3 Thanks to Maltajo for the bottle. Light gold pour with a thick fluffy white head. Tart grapes, barrel note in the aroma. Smooth malt body, light crisp, grape tartness in the taste. Nice dry finish. Excellent brew. jake65 (1698), Williston, North Dakota, USA Nov 12, 2009 Bottle (Batch 3) - thanks beerbaron420. Light hazy golden pour and a thin white head. Nose is soft with sweet and sours, grape, yeast,and a hint of honey. Taste comes through with some oak and more of a dry and tart feel. Sour, in fact. Light grape. Finishes very well. 17thfloor (1443), Chicago, Illinois, USA Nov 12, 2009 Sample #32 at 1st CST, batch #2. Pours a clear slightly hazed light color, similar to a Belgian wit, small bubbly froth. Herbally aroma, sweet funky, light grape, lavender, perfumy. Flavor is sour lactic, harsh acidic cleaner, acidic, lightly nutty, quite dry. Clean feeling mouth-feel, very very light, great fluffy carbonation. An overall disappointment. BückDich (4823), McCall, Idaho, USA Nov 11, 2009 Botte Batch 3: Pours a cloudy orange/yellow color, very bright and vibrant looking, light head and lacing. Nose of funky yeast, tart and subtle balance with fruit and doughy esters. The flavor is so tart, but so balanced a huge sappy sour note and a complex sweet malty note. Sour but full bodied and balanced. Not puckering, just sour. Don’t get a lot of grape going on though. Delightful! Thanks Jake!!!!!! bleeng (592), Spring near Beersel, Texas, USA Nov 6, 2009 Bottle thanks to maltomeal at the Oct Houston RB tasting. Yellow and hazy. Nose is very tart and citrusy. Flavors are sweet, lemon, nosey, effervescent. Very good and drinkable. MaltOMeal (651), Land of Sugar, Texas, USA Oct 27, 2009 bottle. Pours a cloudy, pale yellow with small white bubbles in lieu of head. Nose is fantastic sour grapes. Taste is of sour grapes, lemon and wood. Mouthfeel is smooth and dry. This was exquisite. would love to have this again. boamr (113), Pennsylvania, USA Oct 25, 2009 Bottle shared by yobdoog. Batch 3. Pours a straw color with a fine white head. Has a acidic, grape, and brett in the smell. Has a sour grape taste with a bit of funk and wood to it. Very nice dry finish. shawnm213 (906), South Bend, Indiana, USA Oct 24, 2009 Updated: Nov 14, 2009bottle from trade with vtafro- thanks victor! pours a creamsicle orange. fades from a white to creamy orange to a dark orange in the center. tiny white head that quickly fades. Nose detects
passion fruit, orange peel, white grapes, lemon, wood, plastic, and some barnyard funk. Flavor is big juicy oranges and pashion fruit with some nice lemony tartness to complement it. Mellon sour cherry acetic acid. medium body, slightly dry finish. Pretty neat. a very unique beer on all dimensions. Amazing beer, but there is a rotten melon type flavor that i can’t get over. Otherwise, an awesome beer that I’m very happy to have tried.
