Golden Angel is patiently and painstakingly aged in 500L puncheons with 1 pound per gallon of fresh, whole apricots. After maturation in these neutral oak vessels, this sour is re-fermented on an additional 4 pounds per gallon of apricots to impart a rustic stone fruit character. A total of 5 pounds per gallon of fruit renders Golden Angel the absolute essence of apricot in a glass.

Bottle shared. Very hazy dull orange with barely any head. Aroma of tart apricot, light but ok lactic notes, light oak and a very light dry funk. Flavour is moderate sour. Light medium bodied with soft carbonation. Really grew on me as I drank it and ended up raising my rating slowly for a 3.5 to a 3.8.

Bottle @ home, thanks to b3shine for sending! Pours a cloudy yellow orange appearance with a thin white head. The aroma has plenty of lactic acid, funk, tropical fruit (pineapple, mango), stone fruit (apricot, peach), and oak/vanilla. Moderate to moderate low sourness. Soft lactic acid. Nice peach / apricot flavor. This is the kind of sour that I enjoy drinking more than a thimble of. Not hard to drink, good flavor, good beer. Thanks Beau!
