Bottle from Gomer’s in Lee’s Summit, MO. Nice golden yellow color with plenty of carbonation and small head. Smells wild. This is light and tart but with plenty of brett keeping things interesting. Lots of different barnyard flavors but none of them are overpowering. A little bit of acidity in the finish. Overall, it’s alright! Would love to enjoy it again but there are so many other wild ales out there and this isn’t exactly low-priced.

Light hazy golden pour. Fizzy white head and sminimal lace. Spice and brett on the nose. Lightly tart mouth-feel Green apple, light barnyard, hops and of course brett. Finish’s dry. I would hardly say this one is sour, still decent to say the least

Bottle from Pat and Ana at Ian’s house. Poured a yellow color with small head. Very refreshing with a dry finish. A little bit of Bret to give it a nice flavor boost. Not bad for a session beer.

Bottle pours a clear straw yellow body with a nice vanilla head that leaves clumpy lacing. Aroma is lemony, vaguely funky and outdoorsy. Very effervescent. Taste has a dirty earthy dryness with a sour lemon character. A note of moldy blue cheese emerges as it warms. Nicely drinkable at the low alcohol.
