Year of New Beer: Petite Sour Rosé, Crooked Stave Artisan Beer Project (CO)

Written By: Dion on 03/26/2017

Fantastic nose that features tart berries, light hay, earthy oak, and a nice Brett funk. On the tongue, the berries are joined by hints of lemon and green apple, aiding a sour that is tempered by traces of white grape and soft floral notes that are almost honeysuckle in nature. A nice sour returns on an oaky, slightly dry finish. Didn't manage to find this in Lexington before it was gone, so I'm glad I spotted it in Atlanta back in February. Excellent.
