Absolutely fantastic brown sour from JP. Molasses, malt, and just sour enough to keep it bright. Awesome. — 3 years ago

This a sour IPA from Jolly Pumpkin (but a collaboration with Monkish). Not an IPA fan myself, but this was really good. Downgraded my rating maily because of the huge amount of sediment this thing threw - made it a bit tough to fully enjoy. But, I still recommend it! — 3 years ago

May be a little past its prime. Disco from the disco bin. Only real flaw seems to be the rapid dissolution of the bubbly capello, which leaves you wondering if it will arrive at all and then just vanishes. Again, could be stylistic or age. Okay, time to Disco down! Touch of lime rum cake and sweet petrol hovers over canned mandarin oranges, mahogany and dulled jasmine-cream-soda. Palate has a nice lime rub and cocktail sensibility suggestive of a pre-whiskey rinse. Lemon and tangerine are on the scene. Bring that one up here to the DJ Booth! Saison makes its yeasty debut late in the show, mud all over its platforms, likely had some late chorin’ to do. Better late than never. — 4 years ago

Cloudy, pear-gold with flecks of sediment, shock white head that puffed like a marshmallow. White pepper and powdered lime funkiness, medium ripe apricot, tropical fruit cup, zucchini bread, oranges. Salted grapefruit, yeasty- albumen, white pepper, lime peel, pith, and zest, lemongrass, thyme, dried chives, an ashen salinity, tart gooseberry, and lemon seed. Thought this one might have been too old, but was just right. — 4 years ago

Fantastic new beer from Jolly Pumpkin. Great aromas of blackberries and raspberries, just enough tartness to keep it alive, this is one of the better JPs I’ve had in a while (doesn’t come close to the La Roja Grand Reserve we had at Zwanze Day yesterday, though). Great beer, though! — 5 years ago

Excellent sour from the folks down in Dexter, Michigan, made with starfruit, raspberries, and red lava salt. To paraphrase Jack from Sideways: “Raspberries, yeah. Not the red lava salt.” Still an excellent beer! — 3 years ago

This is a good, but not great JP. Much lighter than I was expecting - reminds me of a Gose but without a lot of what makes Gose beers interesting (e.g., lime notes, saline). A good beer, just not one of my favorites. — 3 years ago

Fantastic sour from JP, this has gotten so much better after some more time in the bottle. Watching Virginia take control (maybe) of the game against Auburn, waiting nervously for MSU-Texas Tech (GO GREEN!!). — 4 years ago
