Dec 26, 2009 (sample at Crown liquors downtown thanks to sprinkle) pours an odd orange-red with no head. Nose of vinegar and sour fruits. Taste of tart/sout plums and pears with a dry unsweet finish.

Dec 13, 2009 750ml bottle. Pours ruddy brown with red highlights and a medium sized, creamy, off white head and specks of lace. Smells of light, sweet malts with some nice sour characteristics, vinegar and a little wood. Tastes sour and sweet and woody. Sour from the bugs and sour from the wood. Sweet and light fruity too. Medium body, good carbonation.

Dec 13, 2009 Bottle - This was a ridiculous gusher of a bottle -- carbonation came out of this sucker like a worm for a good five minutes. It’s rosy, with some yeasty floaties and a tan creamy head. Smell is sour citrus and brett. Taste is citrus -- lemon, orange, and some tart cherries -- finishing with oak and lemon. It’s not exactly easy-drinking, but pretty smooth, bubbly and light.

Dec 13, 2009 The sweet tartness of a Jolly Pumpkin is so wonderful. The pour is a semi-dark amber. The aroma is filled with sour fruits. The flavor is even better. The sour fruits and slight malts are mixed perfectly to make a truly enjoyable beer.

Dec 5, 2009 Bottle says this is Blend 7, 2008. Big foam-producing head. Slightly sour, yeasty, cheesey aroma. Smooth and enjoyably bitter, with a good amount of citrus flavor too. Robust and has that handmade quality I have noticed in other JP releases. I agree with ricke who said that this grows on you and gets better as one reaches the bottom of the bottle. At US$15 (reduced to 12) for a 25.4 ounce bottle, it is priced too high.
