Doesn't look great - a pale beer and the port barrel seems to lend a bit of colour that makes it look darkish and dullish. On the nose, nice port character, a nice brett character. The vinous note is a lot of fun, with a good solid brett character. On the palate, light hop note, mellow brett, seems like barrel, and some vinous sweetness.

2015 vintage. 375mL bottle, pours a cloudy golden orange with asmall white head. Aroma bursts of port barrels upfront, with subdued saison yeast, and gentle wild yeast. Flavour is definitely extreme, with lots of port, alcohol, some perfume, and saison yeast. The brett isn't actually that noticeable, other than having eaten any residual sugars that might've been here. Fun stuff.
