From the brewer

This sour "wild ale" recalls the earliest rustic beers crafted centuries ago before brewers had an understanding of controlled fermentation. Brewed with the addition of locally grown lemon verbena herb, as well as lactobacillus and wild brettanomyces yeast, Telegraph Reserve Wheat is an all-together different beast from modern beer. Not for the faint of heart, this special brew is available in extremely limited quantities.

Who's been drinking this

unknown release
A medium-dry sour, with a very clean, lemon-esque tartness and a wheaty-funky malt sweetness to finish. I say lemon-esque because it's reminiscent of lemon without actually tasting like lemon. I just don't have a better way of describing it.
