Draft, Toronado. Wonderful sour. This beer came as something of a surprise, trying it third after rushing for glasses of Toronado 20th and Deviation. It measured up rather well to the rest of the group. It’s sour and crisp with lot of subtle complexity. There are some apple, earth and oak notes with more delicately fruity malt than I was prepared for. This is yet another incredible sour from Russian River. It would be great to see bottles.

This was a treat to find this growler I had for about a year still fresh and alive after 12 months in my garage. A super soft nose of citrus, funk and some light fruit. Tasted pretty much the same. Everything was really blended nicely and insanely smooth. Not all that dry, like most RR beers can be.

I had this on tap at Dr. Bill's party It was very tasty and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I'd love to have it again. This was another great beer by Russian River. Thanks, Vinnie.

On tap at the Brewpub. Pours an orange gold color. Small sized white foamy head. Aroma is fruity and citrusy, touch of brett and tart. A medium bodied ale. Malts are fruity and sweet. Lots of orange and orange peel. Lots of tartness. Nice mixture of tart/sour/funk that blends well with the fruit sweetness. Nice lively carbonation. Extremely nice, subtle beer, this one will grow on you. Awesome. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet with some tartness.

Poured a dark golden almost orange color small head. Aroma was cirtus and peachy. Taste was much the same, mabye some white grapes and finished grassy hops in the aftertaste. Good beer

Poured a foggy orange color with a tight, creamy white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of brett, citrus fruits, some mustiness, and peaches. Taste of more citrus fruits, herbs, some tart grape, a little bit of soapiness, and finishing with a grassy hoppiness. Thanks cquiroga!
