On draught at the Lazy Boy Saloon. Oaky and extremely sour with a yeasty cherry nose. As sours go, I’m sure this is top notch. The style, however, is such that I couldn’t drink more than a pint.

On tap at Stone Sourfest. Clear caramel orang brown. Spicy sweet nose. Crunchy dry tart mouthfeel. Grapes, red wine, and tartness. Yum.

Tap at Coles, 4 oz sample. Cloudy ruddy-orange color, no head evident. Smells faintly of yeast and sweet-tart fruit. Taste - sour! Cherry, berries, tart apple spice and clean natural cola flavors. Feels great!

Draft: Poured a hazy orange with a nice head. The aroma was cherry, sour, citrus, and yeast. The flavor was oak, red fruits, some citrus, vanilla, and some funkyness. Overall, this is a high quality sour that is easy to drink.

Taster at Stone Sour Fest 09. A clear reddish copper with a thin off white film. Aroma is almost pure cherries with light citrus undertones, and I swear I picked up corn tortillas. Flavor is a perfect medium sour with more of those cherries. Sweet but not overly sweet, a nice horseblanket funkiness. Medium bodied, sharp and refreshing.

Had at Stone Sour Fest 2009. Poured reddish golden brown with small head. Chery/citrus aroma. Taste is much more complex than the aroma. Sour is perfect balance with carbonation. Overall really good.
