Draught @ CBC2015. Pours hazy vibrant deel yellow with a big frothy white head that slowly dissipates while leaving some thick lacing on the glass. Smell is fruity and funky with crackers, lemonade, white grapes, hay, dry soil, minerals, barnyard and lemon zest. Taste is sour, fruity and slightly funky. Mouthfeel is sparkling, dry, tart and light to medium bodied. Finish is sour with crackers, lemon juice, lime juice, white grapes, hay, dry soil, minerals, barnyard and lemon zest. Good stuff but much of the complex funk is hidden behind heavy citric acidity.

Bottle share @ Cycle, St. Pete, thanks Glen. Dorée sur un léger trouble, col épais blanc. Arôme au bouquet distinct de brett, rétro fruité avec de belles notes de vin blanc et fin épicé du boisé. Palais offre un léger profil aigre-brett, fizzy carb, fruité sur la fin avec un côté barrique de vin Chardonnay, rustique sans vraiment tomber sans le style belge avec une fin légèrement citrique Reste cependant grandement influencé par le côte farmhouse américain.

~3 oz sample at the Boulevardia Taps & Tastes in Kansas City, Missouri. The pour is slight haze golden, decent white head considering the size of pour. The aroma is lemon citrus, fresh grass / hay, additional citrus fruit and soft earthy yeast presence. Bunch going on the nose, clean and fresh. The taste is tart lemon, lacto and Brett, the grass and hay of the nose and finishing cleanly. Wine and barrel were not all that present. The palate is medium bodied, active carbonation and a clean, softly funk yeast finish. Happy to have tried this one, though certainly left me wanting for more.
