Flavor was profoundly tart, like Sanctification on its period. Very clean. nightrider (383), encinitas, California, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jul 20, 2009 On tap at Stone Sour fest gave a gold hue with a small head. Good smell of tart fruit. Super rich and smooth in your mouth. Sour flavors up front inter mixed with great apple fruitiness. Throw in a bit of oak from the barrel. Good complexity of flavors. Finish is well balanced with a sweet tartness. Great beer for sure. BMan1113VR (2943), Los Angeles (and Dallas), Texas, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 16, 2009 Tap @ Belmont Station... Poured orange with a thick, off-white head. The beer was good, but had an off quality to me. Could have been the dry hopping with a funky yeast character. Very tart and acidic. One of the more puckering sours I have had in awhile. So much that it was a little over powering and I couldn’t decipher much of the flavors. I did get a bitter, fruit like a peach in there. snakeoilpete (324), Seattle, Washington, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 4, 2009 On tap at Brouwer’s- I was amazed that it lasted this long after Sour Fest (this was one of the few I wanted to try but didn’t get around to). Pours hazy orange with a nice peach head. Smells and tastes mostly of sour apples with some slightly funky wood. Nice strong vinegary finish. SuperDave70 (1158), Beautiful Sunny Mesa, Arizona, USA

Clear golden amber pour with a small foamy head. Aroma is malt, sour berries, a bit of vinegar and citrus. Flavor is nicely sour with lots of berries and funk. Pretty good stuff. Thanks Paul!
