Not a sour. And sorry for the long story I'm about to tell but about to advertise for you guys a great future craft brew brand. It's one of the best stouts I've had. Had it at least 30 times and it's always on spot perfect. Look up this brewery, they've been around 3 years and their record with GABF is on point with what I taste and that makes me happy it's local. I've been going here for 3 years since college and now that they have cans distributed across the east and west coast... I've gotta say this is the dream if your local products.
It really is what I scored it, and it's only their second best beer. Even other brewhouses like deschutes, ballast point won't get this much respect from me and I lived in San Diego for a time bowing to the original sculpin recipe before they sold out. The expression of cacao nibs on this are AMAZING. Clear as day, in your face. Stands out heavily with a creamy burly texture. The finish is smooth and clean at 5.5% alcohol for a young nitro release. They distribute to west and east coast now.. they're the next ballast point/Sierra Nevada you name it. Every night there's at least 150 covers at this bar year round, I'll leave it at that. Mai Tai PA is the next legendary beer though. #thebestpartofwakingup #superfanboy — 8 years ago
Great beer! Not what I had expected at all. Great nose, almost smells like high quality cider. Tastes slightly sour, slightly bitter, very fruity. — 6 years ago

Bottled Jan 2014/Cellared Mar 2014. Brewed in collaboration with Deschutes Brewery. Brewed with whole flower Mt Hood hops, which were first introduced in 1988, then transferred to Muscat casks and aged with Michigan Riesling Grape juice and Oregon Pinot Noir grape must. The result is a golden belgian strong ale with a pleasant aroma of semi-sweet Riesling grapes and fresh green hops, complemented by a touch of tartness that is quickly cut by a bright, dry finish reminiscent of a refreshing white wine. After nine years in the cellar, the fresh hops have mellowed leaving a slightly tart and vinous ale! — 2 years ago
