Key Lime Pie and Lolita? Hard slap of apple cider riding high on waves of apricot and cinnamon stick that is cheating with apple in Pickleville. Asian spices shimmer alongside. Real tart briny lime plays nice with Old Key Lime House-made pie. Bing cherry bringing the cringe from the fringes to the face cave! Sugar-olive dichotomies. The push and pull cancellations have me imagining pickled persimmon existences, dried, spiced Asian plum, banana pepper, potpourri woods, candied ginger, and bite after bite the palatal assault assuaged by lime and sugar and graham cracker. Bittersweet tang for the twang thang.

Vinegar. Look, I'd take it over many-a-beer...and it's wild and sour alright. But balance is off. Leagues better than Goose Island's mainstream lineup though. An order of magnitude, to be imprecise.

Blue giant's toes, pleasantly funky dry raspberry, dry-rot cedar with alluvial notes, nutmeg, turmeric. Iodine lightning across a balsamic sea of briny, boiled peanut, raspberry essence. Leaden residuals! Really fantastic!

Great sour from Goose Island. Nice brett on the nose along with candies raspberries anda hint of balsamic. Nice tartness on the palate and a complex flavor profile. Great beer on an amazingly gorgeous afternoon in Vegas!
