What Our Panel Thought

Aroma: “Light peach and apricot esters along with moderate clean lactic sourness.”

Flavor: “Moderately sweet and rich with well-balanced sourness. Light stone fruit esters as well as a touch of dark cherry and orange play well off of the acidity. Finishes with medium tartness and a touch of graininess.”

Overall: “A distinct and interesting sour beer. Great sour complexity that pairs well with a toasted/grainy malt body that finishes with a balanced mix of flavors. Sweeter than many light sour beers, but well-balanced overall.”

What the Brewers Say

“Ghosts in the Forest begins with a lemon tartness leading to hints of tropical fruit from the Brettanomyces with a refreshingly dry and lightly oaked finish.”
