Bracingly tart, lemon-lime sour. Doesn't have the slight headachey sharpness I've gotten from similar sours, but it does come on a bit strong. It kind of effectively masks most of any complexity that might have existed in the finish.

Funky, uric fragrance that did not promise a good time and a flavor that lived up to it at first, but mellowed out into a typical nitro cream ale smooth maltiness. Perversely, I actually started to appreciate how that skunky opening brought something interesting to this beer.

Fragrantly hoppy on the nose but smoothly malty in taste, I got an unexpected, almost-coconutty finish that heavily recalled Kona's Koko Brown. I don't know if my taste buds are broken today! Didn't get much rye bite or crispness from this one, but it was really enjoyable.

Solid rye ale if a little watery. Standard ballast point crisp hop finish.
