This wise old beer shows off lots of herbal funk. Brewed with rosemary, sage and thyme then aged in old Brainless on Peaches casks with Brettanomyces yeast. Flavors of tropical citrus mix with chardonnay notes and a funky, slightly tart finish.

Bottle at DRBT. Pours a hazy gold with small white head. The aroma is strong floral, spice, funk. Medium body, brett, floral, funky, grape, light dry finish, very good.

Tap at Dexters. Sort of classic orange-tan body. Foamy white head, soapy. The sage aroma is big. The herbal tones are bigger than the brett, but it still has a nice balance. Very clean body, easy drinking. Sage, rosemary, pretty interesting stuff. Delicate, true oddball beer in the Belgian tradition. Better than I expected.

Sample at the Winking Lizard Epic Tap Takeover on 03/14/2015. The beer pours a hazy golden color with a medium thin white head that dissipates steadily to a wispy film. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of brett, fruit and malt. Medium body with flavors of herbal yeast, funky brett and doughy malt. The finish is moderately funky with a fruity and peppery yeast aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Bottle courtesy of Sledutah, thank you sir! Clear golden color, bright white edge head. Aroma of fruity and slightly funky white wine and herbs. Taste is herbal, smooth, vinous vanilla and summer fruit. Nice character and complexity. Delicious.

On tap at bier thirty. Pours out a hazy golden topped with a white head. Nose is brett sage sweet bread and some pepper. Taste is as the nose with a good amount of sage some wood and the spice on the end.

Bomber thanks to Sledutah. Pours a clear copper color with a medium white head. A huge Brett nose, some tart fruit, smells very sour. Light spices, big funky tropical Brett flavors, oranges, not much oak. Vinous, white wine. Very big distinct Brett, dry and funky. Very good.
