Revolution Brewing Freedom of Speach – Sour / Wild Ale at 4.5% ABV | 7 IBU (2023 Craft Beer Advent Calendar #7, 355 ml, packaged on 15-Aug-2023, acquired 14-Dec-2023, reviewed 16-Dec-2023)
Appearance: slightly hazy pale gold with one finger of fine white head diminishing rapidly to a thin ring, no lacing. (3/5) Aroma: mild, wheat, earthy funk, stone fruit. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate tart, low bitter. (7/10) Palate: light body, moderate-lively carbonation, dry short tart finish. (4/5)
Not as much peach as I was expecting, but I’m not sure if that’s necessarily a bad thing. The stone fruit actually comes through more as a vinous note in the finish, than in the aroma. The bigger problem is that this is a kettle sour, with very little complexity or depth. It’s not unpleasant to drink, but there’s not much going on.(14/20)
This will be my 5,704th unique Untappd check-in.
