What Our Panel Thought

Aroma: “Tart, lemony citrus, light Brettanomyces character, and the citrus seems to bridge the fermentation and a citrus-hops aroma. Delicate sweet-malt undertones with some very light background vanilla from the barrel.”

Flavor: “Peach, nectarine, lychee, apricot, and fairly sour and tart, but not much funk. Neutral aromas of oak and tannin with a bready, malty mouth-coating finish. There are hints of lemon oil, lightly floral, and a dry, crisp finish where the sour builds with each sip.”

Overall: “Very tart, light, engaging. Fruity esters complement assertive lactic, lightening the overall impression. Wonderful peach/apricot flavors that may be accentuating the perceived sourness/acidity. Fun and bracing golden sour.”

What the Brewers Say

“Dry hopped golden sour ale fermented and aged in oak barrels.”
