| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Dec 10, 2009 On tap at Capone’s. Pours a clear golden yellow. Not much head at all and no lacing. Aroma is sour but fairly mild. Taste is about the same, sour but mild. A great blend of grapes and under ripe grapes. Goes down way too smooth. I could drink this all day. Sour but not too sour. Mouthfeel is fairly light, like a blond Belgian. Great beer all around. I had it in a 9 oz snifter but could drink much more. puggy211 (591), cordova, Tennessee, USA
| 4.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 4/5 | 20/20 | Dec 6, 2009 appearance is a murky golden with three finger head and excellent lacing. Nose- sweet white grapes, lemon rinds. Taste- champagne like carbonation, blast of white grape sharpness and green apple sourness. Has a wood/ mineral like dryness to the finish. Really dries out the mouth. Having had the previous two batchs, the brett is definitely more prounounced each time out. Great stuff Cole (311), , Alberta, Canada

The flavour is almost sickeningly sour. Long dry finish, and very slty. Interesting, but i’m not sure i would drink it again. BigMilly8 (376), Holiday, Florida, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Nov 23, 2009 From bottle : I’ve been waiting for this. Pours a light golden color, with tons of bubbles, and a massive head. Tons of lace around the glass as the head slowly falls. Sour aroma with some grassy hops. Taste is fantastic. Crisp at the beginning with a sour middle. The end fades very well into a very nice aftertaste. Medium body with some carbonation. Again, the finish is very nice. I love sours....and this baby didnt disappoint. DJMonarch (6878), Northwich, Cheshire, England

2. From the Bottle at the Falling Rock Tap House, Denver 26/09/2009
Sour fruit aroma. Golden coloured slightly hazy in appearance and sour. Smooth on the palate with a crisp and slightly dry bourbon finish. beernbourbon (302), chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 17, 2009 Bottle sample from FoBAB. Pour is lightly hazy yellow with a fairly large white head. Aroma is acidic, lots of wood, chardonnay, brett, and some grassy notes. Flavor is bretty/ funky up front with the woody chardonnay notes coming up shortly after that. Really thin mouthfeel, at least compared to DDG which I had just tasted. Solid sour, but a little thin and not quite as much complexity as I was hoping.
