Brewery draught, 10/4/25.
Clear, lighter golden. Brief bubbles.
Bright acidity with fleshy apple and minimal Brett. They seem to get a rustic, excellent fermentation and yet it's not all Brett and wild fermentation character. I'm assuming it's neither spontaneously or barrel-fermented, then. But still a good dryness with soft funk and big mineral. Not raucously oaky, but rather a light vanilla and evenness of aroma and flavor.
Juicy, with good structure and a pleasant body. Rustic, but again, not chalk full of Brett. Well-aged with rounded acidity. Fruity with maybe a hint of grape though I wouldn't guess it blind.
