Year of New Beer: Sunset Sour Small Batch Ale, White Birch Brewing (NH)

Written By: Dion on 11/07/2015

Unusual from the start, with a nearly indescribable nose. Is it sour? Is it woody? Is it your grandma's basement? Hoping for improvement with warmth, I soldier on. On the tongue is actually a nice initial kick of sour, but alas, it is short-lived. In the middle comes a musty, dirty distraction to the taste buds. I have decided this was filtered through rotten walnuts and wet cardboard. This cannot possibly be what the brewers intended. Drain pour.
