Jolly Pumpkin Bam Bière
This delicious farmhouse ale is named for our Jack Russell, who struck by a car, bounced back in fine tenacious Jack Russell fashion, and is brewed for those of us who knocked down, have picked up, dusted off and carried on undaunted.
Golden, naturally cloudy, bottle conditioned and dry hopped for a perfectly refreshing balance of spicy malts, hops and yeast.
Please enjoy our beers in good health,
And look both ways when crossing the street!

香气：闻起来甜瓜、蜜桔的甜美气息，一定柠檬草、酸黄瓜的酸爽气息，配合一些湿袜子、马厩气息，但臭味不算明显，香气有少许甜感很是意外，显得酒体不单薄。
外观：微微雾状的金色透明酒体，色度约6，边缘微微泛点柠檬色高光；酒头很浅，不过尚有挂杯。
风味：入口清爽的薄荷柠檬清凉气息配合厚实的麦芽白面包基底，较淡的辛香料酚香，随后转出中等酸味，中下酒花干草、木质苦感、淡淡干木头香气浮起，收口前少许霉香，收口干爽顺滑，淡淡酸香、木香、霉香延续到绵绵余味，显得收口前后十分有味道。整体口中味道非常有层次感，且干净清晰。
口感：酒体中等到中稍下，沙口中等到中稍上、收口前非常刺密。
总体印象：非常棒的一款美国人创造的类Saison风格啤酒，整体的表现还是能符合上对于传统Saison风格的描述，除了发酵带来的酯酚香弱些，整体也并不是特别干。不过这可能是受桶陈发酵的影响。桶陈发酵给本酒带来了明显但不突兀的Brett野菌特征，以及淡淡的木质香气，极大地提高了酒体的丰富性，想到这酒只有4.5% alc，如果在Saison风格中则是table强度，能做成这样已经臻于完美了。入口还能体会到一定的麦芽质感，感觉还能再陈（两年？），应该会更干爽、霉香更重些。
建议饮用温度3-6℃
Fad: Ovenpå deres co operation ale, er denne øl selvfølgelig både mindre sur og mndre fyldig. Men som syrlig saison fungerer denupåklageligt. Gul med et flot livligt skumhoved. God saison med en meget syrlig tilgang næsten sur. Flot læskende øl.
Kind of a weak boned sour. Probably because of the 4.5 abv. Lacks a strong finish. It does have a nice tart flavor of apple and plum. Very session able and not drying at all. As the brew warms it becomes more enjoyable. So much praise for jolly pumpkin brews, but living right near urban family and holy mountain makes me spoiled.
F: no.
C: pale gold, light hazy.
A: watery sour fruity, bit woody, peach, brett.
T: light sour fruity, watery bretty, woody, light to medium body, some tannins on the palate, light body almost no carbonation, easy drinkable, good one, enjoyed, big bottle sample shared @ BBP Wanderlust 2018 in Brussels.
Bottle. Gold with a modest white head. Aroma of crackers, lime, orange blossoms, coriander seed. Decent body for under 5%. Starts a little sweet and fruity, finishes dry and slightly spicy. Acidic apples. Funkier than suggested by the aroma. Modest bitterness. Hadn't noticed it was bottled 12/15, but it seems to have held up OK.
Pours orange with a quickly dissipating white head. Cidery sour taste with hints of pepper spice. Spectacular well balanced and flavorful farmhouse sour.
750 ml bottle 9/5/18 (Binny's-Montgomery)-43° in Tulip-Pours a hazy golden with a small loose white head. Aroma begins with wheat, coriander, lemon, and floral. Taste starts of sour and then just falls off with a bit of a bitterness on the back end. This light bodied brew got better with the second glass. A nice Saison.
Not bad white head and foggy orange body. Floral sourness, some yeast, coriander, light grain. Flavour is a light sourness with white bread notes and a crisp finish. Quite nice, good sharp breadiness tempered by the quaint sour ale over arching the thing.
Bottle from Pontoosuc package store in Lanesboro, MA

Appearance: hazy golden with a white head

Tasty
Nice tart fruitiness, some apples, kinda oaky. Light sweetness with moderate to light tartness. Well balanced and enjoyable
On tap at Batch Craft Beer and Kolaches. Pours hazy yellow with a white head. Aroma/taste of tart fruits, funk, yeast, spice, oak. Very good.
375mL bottle. Pours yellow-gold with a moderate white head. Aroma is tart; funk, citrus, grain, and some vinegary acidity. Taste is lightly tart; cereal, apple, grass, lemony citrus, yeast, and some pepper. Dry. Light-medium body. Moderate but prickly carbonation. Crisp-ish mouthfeel.
Bottle from Stanislaus Brewskovitch, Zwolle. Aroma is tart fruits and grainy malt with peppery saison yeast, funky notes, citrus, lightly grassy hops, herbal hints. Flavour is tart and light sour with a little bitterness in the (dry) finish. Body is medium. Dry and funky, the way I like my Saison.
Draft from First Draft 10-1-16
On tap at BrewDog Brighton. Slightly hazy, fizzy brown with a white head. Yeasty, citrus aroma then a light, yeasty, citrusy taste. Easily forgettable.
Pour is very light straw yellow, with light bubbly, clingy head. Very intriguing aroma, spice and fruit. Quite sour on the tongue. It's a taste that would take some getting used to, but not entirely unpleasant. Just not really my preferred taste.
Bottle. Lots of barnyard funk, peach, white grapes, citric notes. Light tart, very crisp flavour, funky, very peachy, with a bitter finish reminiscent of orange zest. Great!
Bottle. Bottled May 2017; BB undated; Drank Nov 2017 - Hazy orange gold in colour. Small foamy white head. Fruity; lemon citrus, grapefruit, apple. Spicy. Yeasty; mildly funky. Malty. Hoppy; moderate hop bitterness. Bittersweet citrus fruity spicy yeasty throughout. Dry and mildly sour. Bitter slightly tart finish. Very drinkable. (2017-11)
From Dec 2007
I got this bottle in a trade with Wasatch. Thanks John!
This pours from 12oz bottle a cloudy yellow-orange with a *huge* very billowy head of foam that doesn't do a whole lot of receding. It gets so thick that I imagine I could spoon it out and it would keep its shape. I like that.
The smell...hit me as soon as I popped the cap on the bottle. It's all fruity and yeasty and funky and it has notes of candy sugar and tartness. Pretty darned complex.
The taste up front has a mix of sour and sweet flavour. The sour is mostly from apple, the sweet is from a mild malt presence.I'm getting a yeasty flavour now as well as a touch of funk and some peppery notes. It has a thin mouthfeel, the carbonation is high, and it finishes crisp and dry with a short but pleasing aftertaste.
Overall, I find this Saison a treat to drink and quite sessionable. I'd drink it again, no problem. Thanks again, John!
Pours a cloudy golden with small white head. Aroma has lemon, sour apples, yeast and some good barnyard funk. Taste is sour with a short clean finish and crisp mouthfeel. Body is light but not watery. Easily drinkable and delightful, and true to Jolly Pumpkin's reputation.
Bottle, 375mL. 4.5%. #1800. Purchase ("Biere-revolution.com", FR). Home. A golden light opaque beer with a medium white foamy head ; good retention ; ok lacing. Biscuit, fruits (citrus), wild woody notes (brett aroma I guess), herbal note. Light to medium dry fresh sour, sweet note, light bitter. Light body, thin texture, average carbonation, dry sour lasting finish. Overall, enjoyable !
Bottle from Total Wine in Orlando, FL. Aroma is floral, spicy yeast, fruit (maybe peaches), mild funk, some oak. Taste is dry, crisp, tangy fruit, nice underbelly of brett (but not heavy-handed), nice hoppy-ness as well. Very balanced. Classic stuff.
Sampled in Ann Arbor at their brewery. Its sour aspect OK but way too light.
Sorry these notes were just for myself now I'm forced to publish them and need more characters to do so, hence this sentence
An excellent farmhouse. Slight tangy, a bit spicy, light body. Very drinkable and goes well with food.
12 oz bottle. Color of grapefruit juice, hazy and opaque. Soapy white head with some suspended orange bits. Aroma is citrus, yeast, straw, and bitter apple. Similar taste. A bit sour with some funk. Big lemony citrus, biscuit, and green apple. Huge carbonation and a crisp finish.
Tap@MBCC May 2017, Copenhagen - gold yellow coloured pour with a white head. Fruity and floral grassy hoppy, yeasty, some nice orchard fruits, bretty touch, floral and herbal nuance into the close.
Golden with a white head - Fruity hops and some wood notes in the aroma - Malt body with some tartness and wood flavours - Malts and woody notes goes into the finsih - This was nice
Jolly Pumpkin just makes such great beer. It’s lovely soured, it’s got the nice oak, it’s got yummy yeast. They just make good beer.
Tap. Aroma is light citrus, funk, slight fruit. Hazy golden with white head. Taste is dry, moderate bitter. Light body, dry feel and funky sour finish.
Hazed golden color with a fine thick white head. Good lacing. Fine intensity in the aroma. Medium body and a tad rich carbonation level. Pleasant acidity and a quite dry texture. Yeast, citric, green apples and a bit floral flavor.
[On tap at Mikkeller in Viktoriagade in Copenhagen, Denmark]
