| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Jun 14, 2008 Draft at Wash-Duke. Sour nose, some lemons. Crisp mouthfeel and heavy carbonation somewhat masks an otherwise sour, unremarkable flavor. A bit refreshing, but really not a very good beer. emacgee (1881), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA
