Powerful aroma, hugely sour and citric, some really funky stuff going on here, notes of leather, straw, lemon, this is just a yeast funkhouse, although notes of light, candyish sugar, dried flowers, dill leaf and catnip appear as well. Cloudy pale yellow color, head is large-bubbled and sparse. Flavor is massively tart and sour, puckering and acidic from start to finish with some light wheat flavor, lemony citrus, persistent herbal hop tones, oak, and a nice, mild bitterness throughout. Light body, mildly effervescent, smooth and thin on the palate. Nice sour!
Update: sampled on draft a few times at GABF 2009. Best beer of the night. Bumping the rating up a few notches! Storm (2685), Amager, Denmark

| 4.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | Oct 23, 2007 C-bus #9. Thanks to my man Bruno for breaking this out. Lightly sour aroma with hints of citrus (lemon) and some hints of oak. Hazy lemon in color with a small head. The palate was perfect for the style--not too thin and perfectly carbonated. The taste is wonderfully, lightly tart with lemon flavors, some oak accents, and just a hint of yeast. Very easy to drink, and very enjoyable flavor. ThomasE (5178), Copenhagen, Denmark

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Oct 17, 2007 Updated: Aug 1, 2009Bottle shared by theisti at his tasting 10/12. Pours the color of a hazy grapefruit juice with a thin white head. The aroma is "dry", sour, citric and tart. Light to medium-bodied and slick, the mouthfeel becomes tongue wickingly dry and tart at the swallow. The flavor is super-tart, sour citrus and is slightly herbal with a clean, dry finish. Delicious.
